June 21 - Polar Bear


Fuzzy Wuzzy was a bear,
Fuzzy Wuzzy had no hair,
Fuzzy Wuzzy wasn't fuzzy, was he?

Aaron "Dizzy Doc" Hay gave a tutorial for this polar bear which uses his modular body design in a webinar this last Sunday (June 19, 2016).

Aaron is the owner of Sculpted Air, based out of Columbus, Ohio and has created numerous enormous balloon installations.  I first noticed his work when I saw an image of a gigantic giraffe's head that was peeking up from the courtyard into the second level food court in a mall.  Also, I've looked up his mustache on a chart and I would say it's more Imperial than Handlebar.

Once again this webinar is a goldmine, a bargain at the normal $10 price - it has been free for the three months leading to Bling Bling Jam if you advertise using your Facebook profile pic.  I am shocked that the room isn't stuffed full of people...

This is a perfect example one of the amazing things you can learn from these webinars.  Although on the surface, this appears to be a rather simple design - this is Aaron's "go to" head and body structure merely demonstrated with a polar bear, but from which you could build almost anything.

I asked what they had for lunch, but their lips are sealed...

  2. Bare Polar could be Scrat with a few modifications. I may play with that idea...
