The Goat Balloon
This is another balloon sculpture that I learned from Paul. I modified it slightly from the original design by using 160Q for the horns. It's a simple balloon - basically a horse with horns.
I found out that this is one of those designs that can take people by surprise because most of the time, they think it can't be done.
A typical conversation would go like this:
Funky Freddie: What would you like me to make?
Parent of kid: Puppy can?
Funky Freddie: Sure. What colour?
Parent of kid: Eh no, wait! I want you to make a... GOAT!
Funky Freddie: Sure. What colour?
Parent of kid: Hah?! You can do goat ah?
Funky Freddie: Sure. What colour?
It's amazing how people think a goat cannot be represented by a configuration of 260Q latex balloons. Anything can be represented by a configuration of latex balloons. It just takes a little bit of imagination.
Till the next time we meet,
