Inspired by another thread... //http://balloonchat.co.uk/bunnies-rework-suggestions-please-t4409.htmlI saw the potential for a much nicer 2 balloon lion than the more complicated one I usually make...

For those interested, here's a quick step by step as each design progresses...

Mark Four, very happy with final result.  Two balloons, no breakages and only one knot...

Thanks for showing these. I hadn't found a lion I really liked or could do - I've not been twisting that long - and I think these are great. I may try and use this one if you don't mind.

Awesome Charles, nice work.

I still remember what you said about leaving a color out of your bag on purpose, to force you to use different colors. I don't leave colors out but sometimes I'll put a block on a certain color - it's great for that creative burst we're all looking for.
