September 18 - Penguin Bubble Buddy

"If you never try, you'll never know what you're capable of."

~ John Barrow

The usual suspect when making balloons using a design style is a penguin.

It took a couple attempts to hone in on a face I was content with, worth it in the end I think - the big beaked bubble buddies were a bit bonkers.

The design style of a Bubble Buddy tends to be more tsum-tsum and I suppose in hindsight I could have made a penguin sliding on it's belly.  But the head has two mounting positions and the "up" position needed a different body because the belly is a bit limb-y as designed.
