Trash Bashing – Robot 4 – Nissan

Another scratch build, trash bash robot, held together with super glue, spray primed and then brush painted with acrylic craft paint. For the rust effect I mix the acrylic paint with Mod Podge and baking powder.

It lights up using a tea light which is accessed by unscrewing the base/lid.

Another scratch build trash robot. Held together with super glue. Painted with a few different acrylic paints. For texture I added baking powder to the rusty color.

I inserted an LED tea light in the body. The switch is accessible by unscrewing the lid/legs.

Trash Bashing – Air Wick Spaceship

Made from trash I’ve found on bike rides. This one is based on an Air Wick plug in air freshener. It also includes an “airline” liquor bottle. a clear cap to a bottle of some kind and other bits and bobs. The base is a fan grill off a computer or other electronic. It’s held together with super glue. I primered it gray, then spray painted it an aluminum color and then brushed on a brown wash which is a mix of mineral spirits and oil based paint..
