*Warning. My images are all tiny .vga's. I have a 2 megapixel camera in my phone but it's always set to take small pics, in case I want to send one in a message. You have been warned*
*Also this isn't a serious post and I don't want anyone saying i wasted 2 minutes of their life or anything stupid like that*
I just got back from a short holiday with my dad and brother. Dad has the weekend off so we went to see the Falkirk Wheel, go on a boat trip under the Forth Bridges, and go to an air museum somewhere for a look at and in a Concorde and at various other aircraft. Nothing too spectacular but it was very interesting and fun . I don't get to go out much and i've been wanting to see the wheel ever since I first saw a picture of it.
The Falkirk Wheel (for those that don't know. I'm guessing most of you) is a vertical boat lift that lifts and lowers boats a height of 25 feet to connect 2 canals. It's a pretty amazing piece of engineering.
I'd post a picture of the Forth Rail Bridge but if you don't know what that is then you need to read more .
Anyway, i'd been sitting in the back of the car for hours on end and got bored. I had a look in my wallet and found one of those bits of paper that the Vue cinema gives you when you see a film. (It's a bit of brightly coloured paper with promotions on etc).
I started folding it about, starting off trying to make an origami frog but getting lost halfway and then making it up as I went along. What I ended up with defies all reason and logic. Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you, the Turtle-Tank!
I decided that i loved the Turtle-Tank so much that i'd draw one. I'm pretty crap at drawing and this is nothing like what I had planned in my head, but here's my drawings of a few turtle-tank attempts, and then a Giant Turtle-Fortress. They're more doodles than drawings but you get the jist of it.
I want to find an artist somewhere that could properly bring the Turtle-Tank vision to life.
