I was looking for a model of the month so was having a play with a dinosaur and we have ended
up with a pretty quick four balloon design. So might work OK for the real world.

The head looked down to much like this, but it was the prototype.

So we then went onto version two, and yes don't worry we ended up with version ten and eleven eventually, he he
It was just the shape and look of the 160 that needed altering a little.
Just did a google search and that is called I think, The Frill.

Plus it was late in the afternoon so the pictures are not to good, slightly dark.

I was then just changing the proportions of the 160 to see what looked most pleasing to my eye.
I started to not use the pinch twists, gave a smoother look to the Frill

And then went from a 4 point Frill to a 5 point behind the head of the Triceratops,
it gave a smoother look and nicer curve to the Frill.

Pictures were taken late afternoon, still very murky.

Just trying different proportions on the 160 Frill to see what looked better.

Then made the Frill drastically shorter.
