A couple months ago, I saw a video like this Greenwich Armor and thought it would be very cool to make it out of cardboard. There is going to be a costume contest at a music place we are going to on the 31st of October. I thought would be very cool to bring myContinue reading “Cardboard Greenwich Armor”

I have started working on armor for my friend. It is styled after Peter’s armor from the Chronicles of Narnia. I am going to change some pieces, like his visor and gauntlets. I have already made the templates for the pauldrons and next I am going to work on a better bascinet and visor. IContinue reading “Cardboard Armor”

A couple weeks ago, I found templates for knight armor on Youtube. I am not very good at making armor because of the shapes of the body, so this helped a lot. It is based off of 16th century Italian Milanese knight armor. This whole set took me two weeks including painting. I updated aContinue reading “Cardboard Italian Armor”

Yesterday, I made cardboard plates for my airsoft plate carrier. But since my plate carrier is so small, and the plates I made are close to accurate size, they stick out the bottom and the sides. I am looking to get a new plate carrier that’s bigger, so I hope I can make them fitContinue reading “Cardboard Plates”

Last week, I got a kitten from my friend, Philip. The cat is 14 months old and is a black, gray, brown, and white Tabby. We named her Agnes, like our other cat, Angus. However, Agnes doesn’t really respond to her name, so we just call her kitty. We got her because our other cat,Continue reading “Our New Cat”

I got the AR-15 Coyote model because I thoughtContinue reading “Goat Guns AR-15 Coyote”

Thursday, I finished building one of my detailed cardboard guns. It is modeled after the AR-15. AR-15 stands for ArmaLite Rifle, which is the name of the company that originally developed the rifle platform. My rifle has a working bolt that is connected to the charging handle unlike my old M16. The charging handle isContinue reading “Cardboard AR-15”

Sunday, we had a Saint Patrick’s party at our house. We had three families from our church come. We made Reuben sandwiches. We make them because they have corned beef which is traditional for Saint Patrick’s day. But corned beef and cabbage is boring so we make Reuben sandwiches which have corned beef, sauerkraut, swissContinue reading “Saint Patricks’ Party”

Last week, I made a Lego Kar98k. The model is made by a youtuber called Kevin183. He makes Lego guns and has a website where you can get the bricks and instructions. This is one of his oldest gun tutorials so it doesn’t work well, but he is working on upgrading it because so manyContinue reading “Lego Kar98k”

He has three Glocks with different looks: Oxide Blaze, Fade, and normal black. I used hisContinue reading “Lego Glock 18”
