I just used this design but modified it to make a shark :D instead of making a beak, I made an ear twist and hid it inside the body. Also used grey instead of blue and shaped the fin and tail a bit differently. So thanks again! My nephew loves it :D

@spacecampsucks hey that's great! Glad you found it useful!

[spacecampsucks]

i've been twisting for a few days and i just tried this... had some difficulty shaping the fin :( and my body was a bit too loose... and i don't have any rounds so i used a bit of white scrap for the eyes... but still, i think it turned out okay considering i'm new!

thanks for posting, i love your videos :)

@spacecampsucks Hey that's great it worked out for you! The first time is never perfect, especially when you're just starting out!

i liked the dolphin and all but i thought the dorsal fin was too big

save a blue balloon. Start at the back with your first blue, go to the front, make the beak, then use your other blue and white to make the fins and the belly, with your first blue return to the back locking the fins in place and now you should have enough left of that balloon to make the tail. It'll be tight but it'll save you a balloon. Also I'd just use the white you already have to make the eyes using two pinch twists since it looks pretty much the same and it saves you time. Ur welcome

Hello my name is Victor, I live in Chihuahua and I'm learning the balloon twisting for financial aid, I have learned some of the figures that you and I would like to know how to give the money value to the figures, whether because of its complexity or the amount of balloons used in the figures. can you help me? Please. Sorry if I do not understand with my level of English. Thank you and really I have all your videos. Victor.
