The dangers of the summer months...

Yes, it's summer. The snow has melted, the ice is gone, and now, the dangers of lawn mowing approaches. Not poison ivy, ticks or even rocks, but the rarely seen.... LAND SHARK!



What happens is I carve up the watermelon to look like a shark, then once we've basically carved out and eaten the innards, I put the shell of the shark outside, and then the local wildlife have their fun with it....


The eyes, of course, were gone and the insides scraped pretty clean. I'll check it out tomorrow morning to see what's left. It was moved several feet last night and upside down so something took it's time. I suspect the bottom teeth might get noshed on.

Yeah, things are boring in the 'burbs so you make your own entertainment...

That is the coolest idea!

I actually found instructions on the internet but it was fun to make! :)

Ahahahahaha that's awesome!

Would it not be something for your action figures to explore? I haven't seen you play in a while.

Yeah, I was actually thinking of doing an action figure theater again; just need a plot! ;)

I would be delighted if you would! I always enjoyed your stuff very much, as it was so funny. You also proved that you don't need any fancy accurate miniature accessories, but can work with ordinary pieces as long as there is a great story.

You are not following me as a friend, so you don't see all the fun I still have with all my figures - not only Stargate but also Doctor Who, Torchwood, Arrow, Sherlock and recently I added the classic Star Trek to the fun. I also started to be a serious collector of 12" expensive figures.

I just haven't posted much in the community anymore as I did not want to be the only one spamming it and it seems everyone has moved on which is sad :(

What do you think?

What a cool idea!! And lots of fun!!

All you need now is to stake the garden out with night vision cameras! :D

Yeah, I'd love a night vision camera - see what comes around at night.

So, have your neighbors called the funny farm yet? ;)

[identity profile] wraithfodder.livejournal.com 2015-07-16 11:15 am (UTC)(link)
Fortunately we have so much foilage buildup (er, weeds, trees, thorn bushes) that neighbors can't see these creations ;) Raccoons can, though!
