How to build a 7 foot 9 inch shark prop

Okay the thing you need to have i patience, if you don't this will not turn out good. Mine took me about 2 weeks.

Find an old trash can that no one uses. Get a cardboard tube used to create cement poles. Next put the tube in the center of the bottom of the trash can and cut a hole so you can fit the tube in. After the tube is in get EXTREMELY flexible foam and wrap it in the shape of a cone and drill it to the trash can. To be sure that you don't lose the cone shape, use tape to hold it together. Now you want to find something that resembles a sharks face. I used a sled. Now push that in the trash can and use a glue that can go in a caulking gun to hold it to the top. The first picture is what the shark should look like. Next get a wrapping foam like polyethylene foam and wrap the shark in it. This will pose as skin. Next get a grayish spray paint an paint the top of it gray. Now get white spray paint and paint the bottom white. Now the shark should look similar to the second picture (the bucket in his mouth is holding up the sled so the glue will dry). Now you will see creases from where the foam overlaps. Cover those up with tape and spray paint it. Now out of some sort of foam cut out the fins. Cut a hole big enough for the fin to fit in. Now tape it to the side of the shark, and spray paint. I recommend put the side fins on last. Now cut out the shape of the top jaw about 3 times and glue them to the top jaw. do the same with the bottom jaw. If you want the mouth to hang open DO NOT PUT THE JAW ON NOW!!!! After that you need a place for the eyes. So wrap more polyethylene foam around where you want it. Then get some thing to pose as eyes. I used a foam softball. Cut out the area of the foam where the eyes will be before you lay the foam down. Next glue the eyes on. Now wrap the foam around. Now time to finish the face. Now if you want the bottom jaw open put it in the position you want it. Now have someone hold it for you. Get expanding foam, i used Great Stuff. Now shoot the foam into the space between the trash can and the bottom jaw. After that dries cut out teeth of something, I used that same foam that i used for the tail. Put the teeth on in some way, i used duct tape. Use red spray paint to make his mouth red with blood and go over it with a light coat of white. Now your shark is ready for a movie. One thing you must know is that I'm 14 so if I can do it YOU can do it even BETTER
