How do you make a Thomas The Train Pinata

Hi!

I tried to make a Thomas the Tank Engine pinata for my cousin's child's 5th birthday party. I wanted a pinata that looked like a 3D train, not something that just had a picture of Thomas stuck onto it. But I was unsuccessful because it was simply too hard to get the right shape and to find the correct colours.

So I ended up making a train pinata, without attempting to try and make it look like Thomas and failing miserably.
