Inflate the next Pink 260 leaving a good 6 fingers un-inflated and attach to the two fold twists from the first Pink balloon, make a 3 finger bubble followed by a large 1 finger pinch twist,
then two 2 finger bubbles for the ears that twist back to the pinch twist.
Then make two 2 finger bubbles and another large 1 finger pinch twist.
The centre of the head bubble will come over the top in between the two 2 finger bubbles that you have just made, but not now in a while.

Make two more 2 finger bubbles for the other ear and twist around the second pinch twist.
You now need another 3 finger bubble to match the other side of the head bubble and twist this into the fold twists that are his cheeks.
The remainder of the balloon is now in the centre of the face and you can make a 2/3 finger bubble for the centre of the face and go up to the twist between the ears, make another 2/3 finger bubble. pull this tightly down and around the cheek fold twists. Pink Panther has a rather flat head so this bubble if made smaller will pull the head down if it looks a little tall and large. I have put the ear pinch twists between the ears in these shots but moved them to the side in the final picture shot, decide what you like best and move them about accordingly.

Make a 2 finger pinch twist which pushes the cheeks apart and helps the neck to sit nicer later on, leave a 2/3 finger bubble for the neck.
Use a scrap of yellow, attach to an ear pinch twist, make a 2 finger bubble and twist around the cheek fold twists and then make another
2 finger bubble for the other eye and attach to the other ear pinch twist.

Stretch this balloon before you inflate it and again once again when inflated so that you end up with a good size tail.
Inflate the next Pink 260, leave 2/3 fingers un-inflated, twist a 7 finger body bubble and a 2 finger pinch twist, twist the bottom of the neck into this pinch twist.
The arms will attach here later.
Twist another 7 finger bubble and tie the knot end of the balloon into this twist.

Then make to further 7 finger bubbles to make a four bubble body section, the remainder of the balloon is the tail.
Inflate another Pink 260, leave 3 fingers un-inflated, stretch the balloon, make a 1 finger bubble and three 2 finger bubbles, (although mine maybe a 2 finger 3 finger and 2 finger bubble) twist the first and fourth twist together to make a hand and push the first 1 finger bubble through the centre to lock it in place so the hand will not un twist. The arm is approx a 16 finger,
four hand width bubble followed by a 2 finger pinch twist. Repeat the arm and hand for the other side with the same balloon.
Attach the pinch twist on the arms around the pinch twist between the neck and body of Pink Panther.

For the legs inflate a Pink 260 leaving a 4 finger section un-inflated, make a 4/5 finger bubble followed by a 2 finger pinch twist. Then another 4/5 finger bubble and a second pinch twist, wrap the knot end of the balloon into the second pinch twist.

Make another 4/5 finger bubble and twist into the first pinch twist, where the balloon is tied up I normally have enough slack at the knot end to run this all the way back to the other pinch twist, so securing it tightly into place (from the front of the foot pinch twist to the two pinch twists at the back of the foot) I then make another 2 finger pinch twist which helps the leg and foot sit correctly in place. Size the leg accordingly, mine is approx a 20 finger, five hand width bubble, you then need two 2 finger pinch twists to finish the first leg. Make a second foot and leg but do not make the final two pinch twists, just measure the leg the same as the first one, discard the remaider of the balloon and tie this into the pinch twists on the first leg.
Wrap these pinch twists into the lower body section where the tail is secured.

Whiskers, just put a puff of air into the 260, tie it off. I then push the air down into the balloon and only use about 75% of the balloon for the whiskers.
I also like to put a knot at the other end of the 260 so all ends have a knot.

The nose is a 2 finger bubble tied loosly to give a rounded effect, I use a Purple Violet. I also add a Rose 260 into the front chest area to give a contrast.

There is also a slight variation Pink Panther on this link with different colour hand/arms and legs/feet, pink-panther-t4921.html?hilit=pink

I put a back view as it may help when making, if you do have a go please post your efforts, any problems with the instructions then please ask away.

Sonia that is sooo good!

Quote from: SoniaPayneLooking forward to the instructions Graham - I will give it a try  Thanks for doing these every month - I know how long it must take and it is very much appreciated

I agree. I'm sorry that the month got away from me. Ah well, there is always August...

You can still make them after the month    Would be nice to see a few efforts.

Ok, here is my effort.  I felt so badly that no one else had used your instructions (which are very good by the way) that I figured I would try.  It's not great but it works!

Looks wonderful!

Don't worry I'm used to there being little involvement, that is why I stopped the model of the month a while back and Kenny was so surprised to see it back again after he sorted out his internet connection. It would be nice to see a few more post their efforts but I will plod along with model of the month at least till the end of the year.

And thanks for posting your effort    

Great job Millie!!! Looks great!

Thanks for sharing
