I wouldn't do something with long legs as in my experience I can never get them to stand up properly! Maybe try a seal, and as you said a dolphin would be a good idea too.

Well the long legs wouldn't matter as we will glue gun them to a little poster board that would have something to go with it. (grass,dirt,snow,etc. paint) Hmm I was thinking about seal...

[Husky_mom]

do you have to use ALL those materials? or choose one among them?

thare are these swan thing like when they serve food at some places........you can do that with the aluminum and the ball inside to give it a little weight.......

you can do the dolphin which can be very cute......

do you know what "piñatas" are?.......they are basically made out of newspaper and some sort of .........(how do you guys call it).......papier mache.......or something like that which is just china paper (the one used to wrap gifts and glasses and the like) with glue and water.........

thay take a while to dry up but you can make any form you like

[I_luv_rusty]

Well we don't like HAVE to... but we only use aluminum for the ears, snout,tail,and legs. The main form of the stomach is newspaper. Then we paper macie (sp?) with white cloth like stuff. I though we would use all aluminum, because last year we made people with the same material but newspaper.

Hmmm... I think i'll try to horse. If that doesn't work i'll do a penguin or dolphin. Still any ideas??

[sweetpatata6]

I like the idea of a rat it would be totally random and different!!

[I_luv_rusty]

I made the horse I just finished the actual shape thursday and started putting on the newspaper pulp mixed with water type of stuff. I still have the whole body to do and the painting, I think i'm going to paint it all white or brown with white legs-ish and a little diamond on it head. I'll post pictures once its done.

Hehe you know what would be really random? A cochroach! No I'm just kidding that would be gross...a bald eagle would be a big challenge and make the other students look at you in brilliant awe
