okay...this is not my best work...but I was playing the other day to see if I could make a bike/scooter out of 1-321 and 1-260.  Here's what it looked like.

Hi,

I have a Bob the Builder balloon to do next month, so as Sunday was a quiet day, till the evening when I was out to play at a friends retirement party, I was playing around to get the head/hat combination right. A normal lootle head didn't seem to look right.

This is how he ended up. I was quite pleased with the result

That is excellent, how about 160's for the top of the dungarees?

Hi Graham,

You're right, it should be dungarees, not trousers with braces, but I'm struggling a bit to keep it simple looking.

Having another go after lunch, and will let you know how it goes

That's a great sculpture Kevin!  Fantastic artwork on the shirt :-) I love it.

For sake of easiness, can you make the dungarees, and instead of using 160s for the suspenders...couldn't you just stretch the 260s out a bit (to make them thinner) before you wrap them over the arms?  Just a thought.

I'd leave the model as is and either stretch as Toya says or just use a 160 over the shoulder, please don't redesign as it's great as is.

Thanks for all your help.

I had already got to work on him before I read your imput. He turned out ok, but his legs seemed too thin, so I cut them off, and replaced them with 360's

This is the result !

Hi Kevin,

This is a really old bob that I made and I used the 260 and streched it over the shirt.

I also made another bob in the photo section.

Your bob is very good.

Nice Job
Kenny.

Thanks Kenny,

My Bob is evolving now, thanks to Thanks to Graham and Tonyas imput.

Here is how he now is, with 160 braces

Following on from Tonya's motorbike, here is a one balloon model, with credit to Jimmy Carlo, but this one was made by me  ..  honestly!

I was asked for a dragon today from Steve Evans who is a lovely man that does the compering and keeps the day moving along at Kidology, the magic convention. Have taken a few pictures so will post it on here for the Sept tag when I get home on Thursday.

This was teh dragon that we made for Steve, it went to the lady that runs the venue.

I love the end result Kev....he looks awesome.  I really like how he is proportioned now...and I agree, his legs were way to skinny with the 260s.
btw...did I mention how much I really love the tools?  Very cool!  This is an all around very nice sculpture. :-)
