I'm old fashioned - you can't beat a nice DVD on your shelf but then again I said the same about VHS Video when DVD came along!

Thanks for the review, Darren!
As Graham mentioned, there are very few physical copies of this DVD left. In face, Graham does indeed have the LAST remaining copies. So if you love the look of a DVD on your shelf, better buy one from him before it's too late.

For my first attempt I used the multicoloured base approach from the first video to help keep things clear in my mind. Being miserly, I didn't want to waste balloons, so I came up with this clownish chap.


I'm very pleased. For a fairly moderate amount of time and effort, this approach has the potential for huge punter impact.

Nice one - it won't be long until you will be able to make the base mask within a few minutes. Enjoy the DVD.

Having seen this review and seen others using it, I finally got the tutorial today. So, using the limited stock I had, I went for the devil head ( had the right colour 646 and 350).
I am really pleased with my purchase and this sorts me out for dressing up days at school for the next few years.
Kindest Regards

This has truly been the most helpful tutorial I have ever used / purchased.  I've used these for all kinds of designs and they are GREAT!!

Here is the lion that I made his afternoon. After two fails, I was down to my last yellow 636 (I don't have any blush) so I used Rob's suggestion of putting a 260 bubble inside the 646 and it worked ok.
Really need to consider investing more money now into my hobby so that I can continue. I think I have enough to do Frankenstein and that is it.
Kindest Regards

Hi Stuart

They look great. I think the lion looks far better substituting the blush for a yellow  

Sometimes we come across improvements by accident  :D

Stuart I saw the lion last night and thought it looked good, better than I can remember seeing. Now Kevin says the colours have changed from the original.
If so your lion does look very striking  :)

Thanks for the kind words Kevin and Graham. Here is the last one I can make with my current stock. I found Frankenstein tricky for some reason. The proportions don't quite look right. His is partly the eyes but there is something about the jaw and top of the head that seems a bit unbalanced. Practice makes perfect though  :D
Kindest Regards

Here's a thought Stuart.....keep the Jaw proportions like that, and remove the black hair and stitches, so his head is bald

Then take the bolts off, make them in green and put them on top of his head, and then you have Shrek

Shrek was the first impression I got when I saw how your proportions looked  :D  :D
Kind regards
Kevin
