HIPPO

KIT LIST : 260Q GREY / 260Q WHITE / 260Q BLACK

I get the idea behind the design of this one but it doesn't look quite right. I think it is because the jaws are too far apart. Maybe a pinch twist under the lower jaw would bring them closer together. A little complex for line work but has potential.

I would prefer to use a hippo head using a heart for the mouth.

TOW TRUCK HAT

KIT LIST : 260Q MOCHA / 260Q BLACK / 260Q WHITE / 5" MOCHA HEART

A really lovely cartoon tow truck design. I made a few changes by doubling up on the layers of balloons around the body and also didn't use raisins to the heart. I just twisted small lobe bubbles. Fairly quick to make and can easily be expanded to make a full car design if required.

Nice

CAR HAT

KIT LIST : 260Q RED / 6" RED HEART / 260Q WHITE / 260 BLACK

A simplified version of the two truck. For speed again I skipped the raisins in the red heart to attach to the body. This one doesn't photograph well but looks really good. Fast to make.

RHINO HAT

KIT LIST : 260Q GREY / 260Q BLACK

This rhino had is much better than the hippo. It is instantly recognisable and well designed. Balloon sizing is important to ensure you have enough length in each balloon. I am likely to use this one again.

SUMMARY

I haven't watched Vols 1 & 2 yet, even though I own them, so I may have watched these the wrong way around! There are some very nice designs on this DVD which are real world designs and line workers. My main criticism is the quality of the instructions in that a lot of the visual instructions are hidden by Patricia's hands and so makes it difficult to see. If you are an experienced twister it is not a problem but I'm guessing the target audience are those will less experience who may well find this frustrating. If you can look past this flaw then this is a worthy addition to my ever expanding balloon hat DVD collection!
