Very few know it about me, but ever since I was little, I’ve had a fear of balloons. I’m okay being around them, but ever since I was little, I’ve been afraid to handle them because I fear they’ll pop if I touch them. However, something I learned from Princess Luna is that if we don’t face our fear, they’ll only continue to scare us. So I decided to face one of mine by handling a balloon. So I watched a few videos, ordered a kit, and made a balloon animal. :) That’s right, I made this. :D It actually wasn’t very difficult (although I do need to work on proportions). Just a few twists and bends and voila. :) I’ll make another one once this one loses too much air or pops, but in the meantime, meet Rex [Version 1]. :D

The hind legs turned out shorter that the front ones, and the tail ended up too long, but this still isn’t too bad for my first time successfully making a balloon animal. :)
