I was having a play with some Santa designs today.
The first one is to tall and thin and I don't like the blush separating the eyes.
The second size wise is better and fatter but I don't like the open mouth look on it.
So it's a work in progress.

I changed the eyes and beard look on the to tall Santa.
Then made two quicker possibly line work Santa's.
The first one I made on the right the rim of hat is wrong and face is too wide.
Second looks a little better but still another work in progress.

I added an extra 160 for the beard to make it fuller and then a mini Santa design.
I made one of these last year as well so not a new design but re-visiting.
The added belt was from an idea from Sally Povey.

I then made some Santa wrist bands which I originally made last year as well.
Just making some variations and adding to the theme.

They are all slightly different with ears on one a variation on the hat etc.

Turning the wristable Santa into a Santa wand.

Then adding to the Teddy Bear body Santa with the belt and adding the chrome Gold for his buckle.

I know its not Santa but I made the Mickey Mouse wand christmassy.
The White 260 possibly could do with being just a 160?

I saw a Santa design by isopresso_balloon2 on instagram and the beard was inspired from his.
My variation on a theme.

I was not to keen on Santa's beard in the above pictures so tried a different face.
His head was then to big for his body so I had to bulk that out a little
and then changed his arms and hands.

I re took the Santa picture as his arm holding the date looked longer in the picture for some reason.
The reason being probably because it was longer than the other one  ;D ;D

I changed Santa into an Elf and then made Santa from a 260 body to put onto a Sweetie cup.

I was making a few more Father Christmas balloons so thought I'd post them here.
There is a tutorial for the smaller Santa over on model of the month,
