This started off as a large cardboard box! First I experimented with a scrap paper pattern, taping and cutting until I had the desired shape. The cardboard pieces were taped/hot-glued together and covered with recycled paper, then a 2 layers of torn grocery sacks. The plastic window are from various packaging pieces--you know--that stuff that is almost impossible to get apart or cut easily and the bumpers are off of toys. The deck/cab is removable, leaving access to the 'hold' underneath, hiding a paper mache Halibut!
