It might be difficult but if someone posts a model then the next model should start with the last letter of the previous model ?

I am still working on it.  I put it aside to do the "Two and a Bit" cd.  Any enquiries can be made to me by email at
smudgyclown-inflated@yahoo.co.uk for that cd and I will let you know when the other is done.  The Birds cd will have up to three versions of each bird.  Easy, intermediate and advanced.  It should be a bumper cd.  First I need to sort out my web site.  I hope you don't think I am using your excellent site as an excuse to promote myself but I would be silly not to mention it.  Thank you for allowing me let people know.

Dave look again, I am in there with some posts and I am by no means an expert. I am in awe of what else is made but the idea of this thread and the forum (as I undestand it) is to help everyone improve. Have a go, anything made well is good. If you don't try you can't improve and if there are mistakes then help is at hand as I have found out. Btw I had a peek at your website and your stuff looks good  :)
Title: Re: New Game
Post by: Graham Lee on June 08, 2008, 09:34:32 AM
I'm in total agreement with Professor T Wist and would encourage everyone to post no matter what level you are at.
The more twisting you do the better you will become, you never end up making it wrong as you've just found another way that it wont work, think positive :D
I wont tell you how many times I've come up with something due to trying something else that went wrong. The motorbike on this thread is an example; http://www.balloonchat.co.uk/viewtopic. ... &sk=t&sd=a (http://www.balloonchat.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=22&t=266&st=0&sk=t&sd=a)

On Balloon Chat we want to encourage everyone at all levels to take part & participate, this is very important to me & hopefully others.

Hi Bonnie,

Thelma & I are sitting here together playing around with our latex & looking at your Elmer Fudd & wondering is the head made from a 660 or a round balloon?
We both have different views on the construction & have a small wager on the outcome.
Title: Re: New Game
Post by: Billy Wiz on July 08, 2008, 08:35:02 PM
looks like possibly a 646 to me Graham!!???
Title: Re: New Game
Post by: P_Outen on July 08, 2008, 09:13:34 PM
Im with Billywiz on this one, i wouldve used a 646 to get the forehead.

Although im open to learn if another method was used. :D

This is what I came up with while playing at the Darlington day, a variation on the Elmer Fudd head.
I think it looks a bit like Dec (is that the right one)

The cheeks & bottom jaw are a 160 & the top of the forehead is a 360 :D
