Hi all, I thought i would try out a new game for us all to try out. Judging from the last balloon snap game, we saw that people are too busy to commit to a game/competition at any one given time. So i came up with a game that you can play anytime you want and people can maybe learn something from it aswell.

The game is Picture of the month, A picture of an object(non balloon related),  will be posted and stay on this section for a month the aim is to recreate that object with balloons, every month there will be a new picture posted to have a go at!!

As i said this is a really laid back game, that you can do in your free time and also could improve your skills slightly :D  :D

Okay so the first picture will have a Christmas theme as it's just around the corner.

Enjoy Twisters.

I had a go. Essentially they are the same but obviously I joined the two middle pinch twists on either side together on one of them

We all have our cross to bear, but some of us need more wood than others!

Hello Kenny

That is such a tough shape to get right, not sure of the best way to do it really, I tried the pinch twist method and I was not convinced so I tried this instead.

Here is my effort. I used a 321 for the main part. And used a bit of rubber cement to glue the pile of bubbles (cannon balls) into the pyramid shape.
