SMOOSH!
The second exercise for September is Smoosh! (link) - a balloon concept by Scott Tripp that mostly uses a smooshing technique. The idea is that people have seen balloon artists do amazing things with twister type balloons - but to use round balloons, something everyone is familiar with - and turn it into art, makes it that much more impressive.
I've built a few Smoosh on this blog already. There was a special preview video for Balloon Blast Patreon members, and I played around with it a little around Halloween last year as well. Now it's time to do the deep dive and get smooshing!
The first video is for this panda, and Scott makes good use of your scraps to make some bamboo. I ended up making three playing around with different sizings of things -- despite the simplicity of the concept, there is still some practice involved in getting things sized correctly.
