# Step 1 Find a rectangular cardboard box or carton. Milk cartons work very well, but anything that is a long and narrow will do. This is your fuselage. # Step 2 Make the wings. Cut a piece of cardboard into a long, narrow rectangle or equilateral triangle. Glue the wings to the top of the box near the front. # Step 3 Make the tail. Cut a shorter triangle out of cardboard. Glue it to the top of the box at the back. # Step 4 Make the tail fin. Cut a triangle out of cardboard and glue it on top of the tail flaps. You may have to reinforce it with tape to get it to stand up straight.

Step 5 Paint the box all one color. White or a light color will

work best, because it will make it easier to add details later. # Step 6 Paint the window to the cockpit on the front of the box. Paint the pilot and copilot sitting in their seats. # Step 7 Paint a row of Windows on each side of the plane as black arches. Inside each window, paint someone looking out. # Step 8 Paint a flag or insignia on the tail fin, such as your name or simply a design that appeals to you.
