Title: Geo for a face
Post by: Dave on May 26, 2010, 02:05:23 PM

I have tyring to make a load of different faces and have seen in the past twisters use Geo's, I have tried to turn them inside out but can't get much off an anchor.
Also do they do Geo's in blush and brown?

Dave, I thought the nozzle of the balloon would be one anchor point and also when the Geo is turned inside out you can slide a balloon under the section that is inside out. Hard to explain that but when the geo is turned inside out there is a double layer to fix to, clear as mud that explanation and this is from someone that has not used qualatex for four years  ;)

Dave, you could try this vid for an example of what Graham is talking about: //http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=FlowerClown#p/u/70/Qh0_NZ3DeYE

Another good one I've seen is this one, which uses raisin twists as well: //http://www.balloonhq.com/column/balchunas/oct05/

Hope this helps

I wish I knew how to upload a whole pdf. I've taken screen shots in order to do this.

Sadly there is not a brown color in a Geo. You can't even double stuff them :o(  I asked Betty once and I think she tought I was off my rocker. Ok... well... maybe I was....er... am.

I've been working on a concept that I shared in Las Vegas last year called Dinosaurs, Dragons and Fantasy Figures that uses Geos. The Ghost I shared is one of the Fantasy Figures...

I can let you know when it is ready.

I shared this one before... You don't have to use the Geo for the body.
