Before he went to bed my 5 year old made us a great spider...
He then played with it for the next half hour, creating an entire scene and story about the spider hiding behind a wall and waiting to eat a bug who was eating grass....not exactly Halloweenish, but I was impressed.
With the kids in bed it was my turn. It was easy enough to make a 2D ghost.....at least I hope it's recognisable as a ghost....I didn't have enough white so I improvised, and put it through photoshop to reduce the colour of the grey...
But then I stupidly decided to try something more complicated and 3D. It really gives your brain a good workout trying to decide how to make the right shapes and put them all together...
2 hours and a movie later and this is my best shot. I'm pleased with it because it went through several different incarnations until it reached this point and this one is definitely the best looking! I hope you can tell what it is!
If you don't have Plus Plus then it is available to buy from The Toadstool and prices start at a stockingfiller rate of £5....
If no-one else links up soon, you'll be winning the Plus Plus set ;) Hurry up people... Although I must say the witch is excellent!
ReplyDeleteThank you! It was really hard to photograph it from an angle that worked well :D
DeleteThat witch is fab! Think you have more bricks than we do, as struggled a bit with Halloween colours
ReplyDeleteThank you Mary!
DeleteHalf that ghost is grey - I photoshopped it, and there's some secret purple in the witches hat :D
Your witch is brilliant! I was looking at the pieces wondering how you could make something for halloween. You did a fabulous job! x
ReplyDeleteThank you! I'm quite proud of it :D

ReplyDeleteLOL they look great but can't believe you had the patience to sit for 2 hours making it!
ReplyDeleteIt's quite relaxing really - and I did have a movie on at the same time :D
