Was playing around with inkscape in the holidays, followed a few tutorials to get the hang of the tools and whatnot:

Remember that book I folded aaaaaages ago? No? Anyway. Here's another. The lightings not that great so if you can't read what word it says, don't worry because it's not a word. From left to right there's a treble clef, a bunch of quavers, and then a bass clef.

Sooo this summer (last summer? in January) I made a slingshot which I have about 0 uses for but it was still pretty fun.

What you need:
[spoiler]A forked stick
Saw
Knife
thick rubber bands
String
Leather
[/spoiler]

How to make it:
[spoiler] 1. Use the saw to cut your stick to a good size, like 15-17cm from top to bottom
2. Use the knife to strip the bark from the stick, this is easiest to do after a night of rain. You can then leave the stick to dry out in the sun.
3. Make a ring indentation a little under the top of each fork with the knife.
4. For the leather I just used the tongue of an old school shoe, cut out a rectangular shape and stab two small holes on either side.
5. Tie a bit of string through the holes and then tie the other ends of the string to two pieces of rubber
6. Fold other end of rubber bands on ends of stick, tie small piece of string around them where the grooves are to keep in place.
7. Get a rock and go hit some stuff
Highly do not recommend using indoors[/spoiler]

Pictures!

[spoiler]The wood looks so nice once it's been stripped [/spoiler]

Slingshots are awesome.  You should check out Joerg Sprave's channel for some inspiration if you want to make more.

So it's been a while, but new project! Started yesterday, using an old hard back book (‘An Introduction to Bayesian Inference in Econometrics’, by Arnold Zellner, pub. 1971),
[spoiler][/spoiler]

I cut out the cover so it looks like a frame. Used  this [spoiler][/spoiler] as tree inspiration, no idea if I’m even doing it right, I’ve kinda just been making it up as I go along.  Added a tire swing and will probably add a kid and his dog into the scene later.



So far, I’m 80 pages in, and hopefully by the time I’m finished (~300 pages) it will look really cool and 3D.

Spent >5 hours on it already, but it took a while to get the hang of the exacto knife and working out how thick the branches should be etc. Its pretty time consuming, cos you have to be careful not to rip anything but hey, its not like I have anything better to do.

So much paper!


Will update as it progresses
