I've been doing this a few years, but still feel like this is worth discussing. How much of each color do you get, or recommend getting? Assume nothing has multiple shades (brown and dark brown).
I've been using the Kalisan 360s and they aren't really 3in in dia, which is a bit annoying, and I was wondering if the Sempertex 360s are wider than the Kalisan?
Also, I'm looking at the Sempertex because of the colour. The Kalisan Blue and Orange isn't really as orange or blue as other brands, not that I've used many.
Are Sempertex 360s better than the Kalisan ones, and what do they look like IRL?
Even better if you have an image, for reference.
HELP!! I am in search of a company that sells the 160 size Mirror balloons by Kalisan.
Anyone know who or where I can buy a large quantity of them?
I have a Filbert Pump and the top cap is cracked and leaks air. I tried to buy a replacement cap from the Filbert website. After a short exchange of emails and before I placed the order, the emails stopped and someone told me the guy who makes them and runs the site passed away (earlier this year/late last year).
Anyone have any ideas for sourcing parts other than Filbert? I tried using superglue and PVC cement and neither worked. A regular PVC cap doesn't fit because the Filbert cap is an odd size. Any ideas?
Got this for participating in a magic show today. Wish there was a way to preserve it.
Hey Everyone! I am starting to taking twisting a little more seriously as I'm slowly moving on from free balloons to accepting tips and doing some events and parties. Thus far, I've pretty much stuck to the lame "little black dot" for eyes on my animals. I'd like to move up in the world and start better features.
Do you have any pictures of the faces you draw on any of your designs? It doesn't matter what the design is! Also, do you have any tips on what markers to use? I've used sharpie + paint pen and I don't love the combo (it feels like when I write with sharpie the sharpie will both draw and erase as I try to color in a section--it never puts on a solid color).
I'll start with a few I've found from other creators! My hope is to make a cheat-sheet visible on my side of my signage that has a picture of the eyes/faces I draw on each animal so that I can easily replicate it.
