Halloween is my favorite balloondesign season of the year.
Every year I add new stuff to the growing collection of Halloween balloons.
Here are some of my favorites from Halloween 2017:

Good to see some rhinocerosses (good plural?)

Here is my usual design for a rhino.
(For those with a sharp eye, it's not a Rob Driscoll design; Rob uses some of my designs which is okay)

Thanks for posting the 'pre PDF receiving' toucans..
They both look good as birds in general or starting points for other bird species.
The first one kinda reminds me of a puffin. Probably because of the position of the beak coming out of the head.

I found that Toucans (plural Touci?  ... terribly bad dutch joke) have the top of their beaks just one eye-length higher than the eye itself. Your second version has more bulk higher than the eye-line, which may look less toucany (...) but does have a nice bird appearance as well. Potential for another bird species perhaps...

Here's a Dusty Hat, using the concept from the PDF.
Next attempt will have a Robin's Egg Blue as the 160Q going across.

Thanks for the review Darren. Much appreciated!

(and it's okay Graham Leach  :P   ... hmm, very bad dutch joke)

I did one on a hat recently, using a different colour beak with Orange and Coral.

Thanks Darren for your wonderful review.

I want to add that there's a free bonus gift for every buyer of the Seagull tutorial.

Also I released my second PDF tutorial, explaining Skipper (from the animation Planes)

Hey everyone,

I'm looking forward to meeting you all in a few weeks.
I collected a wide variety of good and useful ideas, so everyone will get something out of it.
Imagine all the new possibilities....

Thanks Graham  :)
Yes, we're feeling more healthy than before Las Vegas - like a total reset. (You know I'm still thinking, while the doctor said it was a virus, that it was really food poisoning at Marylin's Café)

No hard feelings Mr. Tony.. you might be new at this... The parrot looks good! Thanks for giving the proper credit in your next posts. :D

Autumn Wreath

A decorative idea using a 4 balloon wreath and some fallen autumn leaves.
[ You are not allowed to view this attachment ] AutumnWreath-sm.jpg[/attachment:1lneubbk]
The braid is obtained by spiralling GoldenRod 260 with Orange 260. Then seperately add Mocha Brown 260 to the spiral and finally Gold 160. Because of the different size of the 160 the result looks slightly imperfect and therefore more natural.
A small blush 160 loop at the top is used to hang it from a thread.

Cleaning out your garden gets a whole new dimension this way ;)
