Making A Pig In Balloon Modeling

Video Transcript

"Hi! Malik the magic guy with expertvillage.com. Now for the pig, now this is going to use a tulip twist, the bear head which uses some pinch twist, it’s going to use a roll through depending on how you want to do it. I’m going to show you this and you want a balloon with just a little less than half blown up cause we’re going to put a lot of twist in this balloon to make a pig. So we’re going to start off with a small tulip twist just like I showed you before so you can watch the video on the tulip twist, we tucked the knot in, twist that off just like that so you want it to be you know maybe that’s about 3 quarters of an inch maybe an inch right there. Now this is going to be like the teddy bear head except this is going to replace the first bubble, so now we’re going to make the other bubble just like that…and then we’re going to go into the assembly we did for the teddy bear head that chain of five bubbles that we did but alternating big and small just like this. So this is what we have…we’re going to lock twist these together and we’re going to feed this through just like we did with the teddy bear, give that a good grip like that and then we’re going to pinch twist here…and we’re going to pinch twist here…and that’s going to give us a pig head. Now we’re going to do a basic two bubble lock twist for the front legs, I’m going to do a three bubble roll through for the body, you can actually do this without the three bubble roll through if you prefer, you can just make a regular body but I like to do it with a roll through cause I think it looks more like a pig so a little three bubble roll through. Now these are all tucked in there kind of tight but you can do them with a little bit of practice and then you make a set of two bubble legs just like that and that is your pig, a lot of little kids like this one it’s a very cute design so this is a good one to learn, there’s the pig."
