Man builds life-sized tank out of 5,016 egg boxes

An artist has spent 512 hours creating a life-sized tank out of 5,016 egg boxes, but it's no yoke, he did it for charity.  

 

Stuart Murdoch constructed the Challenger II to celebrate the launch of Eggs for Soldiers' national egg and spoon race on March 4 and raise money for Help for Heroes.

 He says he used 26 litres of glue, 10,100 nails, 15 litres of paint, 80 square metres of steel and 5,013 staples to make the model. 15p from the sale of every khaki green box of six Eggs For Soldiers goes directly to the charity, which is eggcellant news, don't you think.
