Instructions - Bugs Bunny
Bugsy Bunny by Michael Philo
Magical Balloon Michael
Yet another famous cartoon using the two balloon body, let's just jump in shall we?
4 Grey 260s
1 Grey Scrap (youll get this from the ears)
2 White 260
Make the standard two balloon body out of two of the Grays and set this aside.
Inflate a third grey leaving about a 6" tail and tie it into a loop. Split the loop in half and twist it in half so you get two loops. Inflate the white and last grey 260 leaving about a 6" tail and tie them together. Make a 3" bubble in each and twist in the ears.
Make a 3" bubble in each and lock them to twist them to the other 3" bubbles using the knots. You should have a four bubble cluster for the head with ears. In the white 260, make two 6" bubbles and lock twist them together, now make them into loop twist, these become the cheeks. Make two 2" bubbles for his teeth and lock them together. In the Grey 260 make a bubble big enough to go around the head and lock twist it to the ears, repeat but lock it to the cheeks. You have a huge head now. Pop and tie off any leftover balloon.
(Bonus Hat)
Take another grey 260 and make a standard hat base, twist the tail bubble between the cheeks so you have this.
Back to the body,
Inflate the second White 260 and the tail end of a grey 260 for the nose, tie them together and lock them between the cheeks. In the white make a 1" bubble, another 1" bubble ear twisted, make a 2" bubble and lock it into the two balloon body. Make a bubble long enough to go from the neck to the tail and twist it in at the tail. If you have enough balloon to make a loop twist, pop any remaining and you're done.
Keep in mind you can add white hands and feet by simply making them out of a white 260 instead of the grey and tie them to the grey, I like to make fast balloons so I do it this way.
