June 5 - Hermit Crab

"We shape our buildings, and afterwards our buildings shape us."

~ Winston Churchill

The final balloon taught by Joe Mock in a recent Bling Bling Jam webinar was this hermit crab.

Simple and effective, kind of a little shell turban, or a swirl of ice-cream.  I built the brown one during the webinar, then tried to focus on a better curvier "shell shape" when making the red afterwards - though it could still probably use some practice and finesse on my end - it would obviously work great for the hermit shell.

This is still though probably just a step beyond normal line work, if just for the fact that you're dealing with 6-8 balloons.
