Does anyone have a good one or two balloon car? I was experimenting with making cars but they seem to take a long time and I can't quite get it right. I wanted something with one or two balloons so there wouldn't be long lines when I make them for a gig.
What kind of cars do we have out there???

I don't have a car, but I do have a motorcycle! It might fill that gap or at least give some ideas on making a car...

It's one balloon inflated to 4" left...
Start at the centre of the back tire with a 1" bubble, make a flower petal big enough to push the bubble into it's centre. Then two really little bubbles pinch twisted for the tail lights. Next is the seat, about 3" long. The handle up one handlebar, three small bubbles and down the other handlebar. The outer two of those three little bubbles are pinch twisted a lot and the middle one popped at the end to separate the handlebars. Two small bubbles for the headlights, pinch twisted together. You should have enough balloon left for the front wheel and it's centre made the same way as the back wheel.
I hope that's clear enough... with the picture most of you guys are awesome enough that you can probably do them better than me. This is my hardest one, I often have to redo them 2 or 3 times to get a good one.
