January 23 - Loopy Pigz

"It is a mistake to think you can solve any major problems just with potatoes... or pigs."

~ Douglas Adams

So with this post, I'm drawing the primary run of the Loopy Headz balloons to an end.  Tradition has the last of any balloon concept be a purple pig, and I feel like this technique lent itself perfectly to the task.  I ended up building a few styles.

Super great concept to begin with, it gave a lot of good squishy 360 work, a big wide surface to practice eyeballs, and was no frills quick enough to work with that it was tolerable for the most part to use my super old balloon stock.

It seems like this would fit perfect for some casual linework, since you can accessorize and enhance a basic form as much as you have time for.
