Elmo and Cookie Monster

Does anyone have any designs for Elmo and Cookie that are good for line work? I did watch a you tube video yesterday but it took the guy like 5 for Elmo and 7 to do Cookie. Need something for this weekend.

I think Maggie had a really cute elmo design that you could probaly interchange b/w elmo and cooke. I'm not sure how long it took her. But I hope that helps.

i thought these were awesome!!

oops sorry, i guess since you posted this in the balloon twisting section you were after balloons!!! Doh! Keep messing up tonight. Might be time for bed me thinks!

opps disreagard my post as well...

Well it was still cool to get to see the face paint and other hats. But, yes I was sort of wanting some balloon twists. Thank you for writing though. I am grateful for friends that want to help me out!

Shonna Flannigan uses a red bear (geo) balloon then just adds the eyes and arms.

SUUUUPER quick stick monster versions, but still recognizable.

Inflate 260 leaving a 1.5-2.0" tail. Small bubble (1/2"), flower petal, small 1/2" bubble, flower petal.

Make eyes out of 5" round. Add nose for Elmo and twist around eyes. attach to 260 1.5" from last twist. Feed tail end through both flower petals. Add artwork. 45 seconds! (Maybe up to 2 minutes tops.)

Awesome!

I gave the stick cookie monster a try.....nowhere as cute as yours Kristal.
I will keep practicing though, they are adorable.

They were a total hit. I did some with basic bodies and some as sticks. I like drawing my eyes better than using the eye balloons, cause cookie looked like a fish more than cookie since the rounds went sideways LOL! But I didn't have a good stock of 5" rounds so I had to make due. Thanks Kristal!

those are really super!! look forward to trying them -

Krystal - can I post to my guild? I will credit you ofcourse.

OMG Krista those are too too adorable!

Anyone willing to do a step by step by tutorial on these? I just can't seem to grasp how they come together. Thanks!
