Homemade paper tank: master class

Paper toys are simple, affordable and interesting. From such material, you can make various crafts. If your son is growing up, we suggest you familiarize yourself with the master class on creating a tank. A home-made unit can be made of paper or cardboard. You can make more than one combat vehicle, it is done very quickly, most importantly, do everything according to the instructions.

Paper tank: instruction

For crafts, you need to prepare an A4 sheet and scissors. You can also use colored paper.

Follow the scheme:

1. Tear off a strip about 4-5 cm wide from the short side of the leaf.
2. Bend its upper right corner so that you have a triangle. Bend the top of the sheet.
3. Now you need to bend the top of the strip into a triangle in the opposite direction.
4. You should get a strip of paper with clear folds at the top. Fold the top of the strip with a pyramid along the contours of the fold.
5. You need to press the pyramid so that it is securely fixed in a collapsed form.
6. Fold the bottom of the pyramid in the same way.
7. Now you should bend its outer parts up, and then bend them to the right.
8. Bend the left edge inward.
9. Fold the curved edge of the strip half out.
10. You need to repeat the same actions on the other side.
11. As a result, you should get a strip with pyramid arrows.
12. Now expand the pyramid at the top and roll it inward in the opposite direction.
13. Turn the part that you have turned over to the other side. Bend the bottom of the pyramid to the center. Now you need to bend the top so that it is in contact with the bottom.
14. Then you can proceed to the lower ears. You need to insert one pyramid into another. Fasten the structure and secure by bending the "ears".
15. Spread the "ears" of the pyramid, which is located at the top.
16. Bend all the “ears” of the upper pyramid inward. Your paper tank has a tower.
17. Spread a portion of the strip inward. You need to make the tracks come out more voluminous.
18. Spread the tank on all sides.

We supplement the tank with a barrel

Now you need to complement the homemade combat vehicle with a muzzle. To do this, take a piece of paper (4 by 4 cm). Roll it into a tube so that at the end it has a thickening. Raise the tank tower and attach the resulting barrel.

Now you know how to make a homemade paper tank. The process of creating it may seem complicated for those who are just mastering the origami technique. To get the toy, you must follow the instructions. The difficulty is that there is no need to use glue to assemble the paper tank. All that is needed for work is a sheet of paper, scissors, a ruler. At first, you can try to make such a craft yourself. As soon as you manage to assemble a home-made tank, attract little helpers to the lesson. To make the machine stronger, use thick paper.
