I want to build larger models in order to attract attention.
For instance Eiffel Tower, Forth Rail Bridge, Oil Rig. Something say 6-8 feet high. Does anyone have a source of information on building these sorts of larger models. Many thanks, Norn |

Sounds like you want books on balloon weaving. One of our local artists did an incredble life-size standing models of Elvis Presley and Willie Nelson - complete with guitars - using the weaving method. You may want to check out Larry Moss' CD "Attack of the 50 Foot Demon". It goes into some pretty good detailon this method of modeling. You can get it on T. Myers website for $20.00.
Best wishes! Skip

Sorry what I meant to type was - I notice David Grist also has vidoes on weaving. (Volume 9)

Also you can use bigger type balloons ie. 350's or 646's. Any thing seen as a small model can be made bigger with the larger balloons.
