In the modern world, the space theme has somewhat receded into the background. Now it is more prestigious to be a lawyer or a sales manager for something. However, at least once in our life, each of us, looking at the starry dome of the night sky, thought about what secrets distant planets and galaxies hide in themselves. But in order to conquer outer space, you need a spaceship, and at the initial stage of production at least a model of this vehicle. Today we will talk a little about design prototyping at home.
It is necessary
- For step 1: a sheet of cardboard, colored paper, scissors.
- For step 2: beer bottle, newsprint, PVA glue, knife, foil, colored and white paper, tape, stapler.
- For step 3: gypsum, clay, or decorative clay.
Instructions
Step 1
We take a sheet of cardboard, draw a spaceship, cut it out. We design the resulting template using colored paper. Next, we make two supports (according to the principle of legs) from the same cardboard so that the rocket is stable. That's all. Put it on the shelf and you can consider that with one foot on the path of conquering space. And to be more convincing, cut out the porthole and insert your photo there.
Step 2
We glue the empty beer bottle with newsprint using PVA glue, leave it to dry completely. Carefully remove the resulting shape, after cutting it into two halves with a paper knife. We glue the parts of the resulting structure together, make a slot for the window. Now we decorate with white paper or foil, attach wings from colored paper with tape or a stapler. Further refinement of the model is made in accordance with the author's taste preferences.
Step 3
Use plaster, plasticine, decorative clay. Sculpt the installation that is right for you. It can be not only a rocket, but also a lunar rover, or even an orbital station.
Step 4
Alternatively, you can buy a special simulation kit and assemble a rocket from existing blanks. If everything is done correctly, it will turn out beautifully and in addition to the pleasure of the process, you will get a real spaceship in miniature.
