Here are a couple of pictures from the rear of road runner but from different models so not exactly the same as the 360 version posted above, different beak, this one is a 360, the one above I think looks better proportioned with a 260 beak.
Feet are different and this one has longer top of the head plumage as well which I think was too long.
I have no rear views of the bunny but he does have a white tail and a pinch twist to hold his arms in place to the top of the body.

I will be putting two models up this month but explaining only one of them.
The one people try the most and post pictures for will be explained on or after 21st March.

Road Runner, the first picture was done about 2/3 years ago out of 260 and picture 2 was playing with the design last week out of 360, it stands over 6ft tall.
3, The rabbit was made a while back, I think possibly for a challenge but can't remember. I would change the look of the snout next time.

Is this from Tonya? A link would be good as well.

Thanks Danny but I'm sure there is a thread on the memorial lecture he did for David somewhere.

Gerry is after some pictures of Ralph which I know I have somewhere on my computer but when you look you can't find and other times they pop up when not required, so did a search here with no luck, looked all through the events section. If anyone finds it could you please put the link up...........Thanks

Changed the top of head 260 but I thnk I still prefer the original, although the 360 could make a nice ride in with a few minor changes.

So made the beak from 260 and put seperate toes on, possibly looking better but the royal blue 260 on top of the head looks far too high.

I was going to put road runner up as the model of the month but was not happy with the look of it, so have ben playing around with the model tonight.

1, I made the original a few years back from 260's
2, Made from 360's, the neck seems too long and beak too fat and I didn't like the look of the feet
3, Adding 160 for extra toes and a fuller looking side of beak

Lyn and I are looking to do the Darlington day on the 28th April and the day will be sponsored by Balloon Art Wholesale which is the name of our balloon company although we trade under Sempertex Balloons.
If those that will be attending could spread the word about the day to clubs/friends etc it would be appreciated  :D

The balloon fashion show from Diamond Jam 2009 has just been posted onto you tube, it's well worth a look;

I got in touch with Nichola as the post was unclear about how the day would work, this is the email back. She is looking for someone to charge for balloons and to donate a percentage back.

Hi Graham,
 
I am looking for someone to sell balloons and donate a perecntage. I will be doing lots of advertising for the day including ads in the free press, local magazines, hopefully Trax FM and lots of posters and leaflet drops so should be plenty of people there.
 
Thanks
Nichola
