Lets go fly a kite;

Up to the highest height;

Lets go fly a kite;

And send it soaring;

Up through the atmosphere;

Up where the air is clear;

Oh, lets go-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh;

Fly a kite!

I thought a kite flying scene would be nice for the Asian category of the CCC, so I went to look for kite designs and found none. So I decided to try to develop my own. But I don't think I'm going to get around to building the scene for the contest, I wanted to at least show off the designs. And maybe see if anyone else had better ones.

I think they are pretty cool. They are plastic blocks after all. The first picture especially give the impression of a kite flying in the breeze.

They would make a great addition to a park diorama.

Hello!

A very inventive idea! I think I have not yet seen any brick-built kite. :classic: I think that asian kites are buitl a bit different from common kites I know, with many air filling pockets that give a final shape. So I guess they look more voluminous when filled with air in the sky. :classic: Clever idea!

Cheers,
