So anyway here is my attempt.
I decided to use a geo for Danger Mouse head, it held together well.
I did start off with distorted 160 inside a 5 inch pink round for the ears
but they were not round enough so changed to just 5 inch rounds.

Penfolds head was more fiddly especially his glasses.
I think he would look better if I distorted the round as he has big cheeks.

Here below is the facepaint to match my Dangermouse balloon.
If you do need a kent painter or twister here are my details

My attempt at Danger Mouse.
I was trying for this look with the hands on hips.

Just realized I forgot the logo on chest....ooops!

As the challenge was just Danger Mouse I was not going to make Penfold.
But then Danielle did and she inspired me to have a go.

I then tried for a longer thinner mouth look.
I also added smaller glasses.

I made Danger Mouse again with 646 for the body and some variations.

Challenge 14

This was my turn to decide.
It was tricky but I went with Wizard as when we googled not many showed up.
The one that did that was the starting point I'm unable to find at the moment.

Not a good start, it was in a collage of pictures.

Panic over..........................found it.
It was made by Juan Gonzales.

This was my starting point although Danielle had not
seen the picture before she made her design.

I liked the choice of Wizard and just started playing with balloons with no particular set plan in head.
It all started coming together and looking very cartoony.
I used a heart with raisins for his beard. The body is quite simple but works and looks best from the front.

From the side and rear.

This was my first attempt and then changed the cloak a little,
bigger nose and went to an all black hat.

I then supersized and tried a variation.
Was not too keen on the bubbles for hair under brim of hat.

I tried some variations on eyebrows instead of hair under brim of hat.
Not sure I was keen on any though.
The ends of balloon got hidden up on last picture.

I also changed the hat but think I prefer the original made with a heart.
It was taken a few days later as you can see the matt look on the black balloons.
