Okay, here’s my attempt at a blog post, following all your instructions:
So, I got it in my head to do something with the Fisker Emotion sports car. I don’t know, something about the sleek design just grabbed me. I figured, why not try and build it ?
First things first, I scoured the internet. I mean, I spent hours just looking at pictures, watching videos, anything I could find about the Emotion. I wanted to get a real feel for the car’s shape, its lines, all those little details.
Then came the fun part. I have a bunch of tools.I grabbed cardboards, tape, glue and started cutting.
- Cut the cardboards that looks like the basic shape. I wasn’t going for perfection here, just something to build on.
- Taped everything together. Let me tell you, it looked ROUGH. Like, really rough. But hey, that’s part of the process, right?
- Used glue to stick it together.
After that first stage, I took a step back. I looked at what I had, compared it to the pictures I’d saved, and started refining. More cutting, more shaping, more cursing when I messed up and had to redo a section.
Getting Closer… Slowly
This wasn’t a quick project, not by a long shot.I also watched a lot of videos about how to carve the cardboard, how to make smooth curves. Let me tell you, it’s harder than it looks!.
But eventually, slowly but surely, it started to look like something. I added in the headlights. Those were tricky, but I found some small, clear plastic scraps that worked pretty well.
I have to put something on top of the “car” to make it more solid, I ended up using lots of glue.
So, that’s where I’m at. It’s not perfect, not even close. But it’s MINE. And I learned a ton along the way. Maybe next time I’ll try something a little less… ambitious. Or maybe I’ll just stick to admiring these cars from afar. We’ll see!
