Amazing! A poodle is the limit of my own expertise.

Superb stuff Tony, I can make a model of a snake or a worm but that's it.

You should give it a try mandrake. I am doing another big project next month, I will post a pic of it when it's done.

OK, I'll give it a go but I suspect I'll use considerably less than 'just under 300' balloons!

I can do a dog, a giraffe and a dinosaur.
I can turn it in to a zebra with a sharpie if pushed for something else.
I have had complaints that the above three are all the same but I just encourage people to use their imagination.
Seriously, this is something I would like to get in to because I do some childrens parties. But the books I have bought as tutorials are not always easy to follow and I always seem to end up with the same creature.
The pictures on here though are something else. Brilliant work

Fantastic work!
When I was learning to twist, I used to fill the room with sad faced mutants that seemed to be silently screaming, "what Am I? Please kill me!".
