Hi guys,

A challenge for you…..Last weekend I was asked for a couple of things I couldn’t do!

Pokemon – There are hundreds of them, but I recon I could have got away with Pikachu
Spiderman – Any ideas for a two balloon (red and blue) spider person?

Oh, I also have a booking to do a save the rainforest gig – Any simple jungle animals (the snake from Graham’s DVD is great) would be appreciated.

Graham, how did you do that frog you showed me, the balloon’s gone down now and I can’t remember how we did it, I think the body was similar to the bear but with one centre balloon rather than two? I want to try and adapt it to have big while eyes and a red tongue like the snake.

Thanks.

Here's the link for the frog;

Thanks Graham - Can you do a twist by twist pictorial? Frog balloons for idiots if you like!

I can see how Spiderman was done, but I can’t se how it was joined and I keep putting too much air in, it’s quite hard to gauge

I will keep trying

Thanks.

If you make one arm and then the fold twist for the head, put it to one side and do the same for the blue leg. Join the leg at the waist, bring it up to the neck, then down again to the waist. Carry on making the other leg. The take the red balloon up to make the other half of the back and twist into the neck. Then make the other arm.

Hope that helps.

That was just like Mike did on his balloon-animals forum...
