Thanks for posting this -- all three of my kids needed to make some kind of 3D lobster for a school project and after sighing and complaining all morning I had the genius idea of making them out of balloons. Son typed "balloon lobster" into google and up popped our balloon genie Mr Fudge with your excellent instructions. I can't say ours look exactly like yours, but we have reasonably credible looking lobsters, so thanks for showing us how! Continuing this note in next post, running out of ro
@lovetbaby Thanks for helping out with the responses. I've been pretty busy and unable to do as much as I would like. So, I appreciate it. You are right on though. The white balloon is a 260. I will try and be more clear in my next videos about this. Thanks.
@InoYamanaka112 Awesome. That's great to hear. Be sure to sign up for the newsletter to get more information on when there are more videos available. ;-)
@ontto91 The white balloons are the same as the longer 260Q balloons he uses for the rest of the lobster. He blows it up slightly, makes two small bubbles (do not ear twist them) and then ties the unblown end to the other end. Leave a small "tail" of one unblown part and then cut off the rest of the other end. There's your eyes. :)
@lovetbaby You are correct in that you can get them a lot of places. I have a few specific places I buy mine, but I believe TH-cam blocks me from typing the web address here. So,I'll only add this... The ones you get from the party store and walmoart are ussually old, of lesser quality, and quicker to pop.
@ChryTears I have an Airedale Terrier myself. As far as the black and white, side by side... I am trying to post a new video every week this year. So, we'll see what I can make happen ;-)
room. One little note for future videos: occasionally your hands and the balloons would drop out of sight beneath the bottom of the camera shot -- sometimes at a crucial moment. Maybe a slightly bigger shot would be better? Also, holding it up for a moment between actions would enable us novices to pause the screen with a good view of what it's supposed to look like so we can match ours to yours. Thanks for this public service -- my sons and I really appreciate you taking the time.
@ontto91 You can look in your phone book for party supply stores or go online to find the same 260Q balloons he uses. The best ones to buy are the name brand Qualitex. Of course you can always start yourself out on the cheaper ones at your neighborhood Walmart/Target/Kmart, which usually comes with a cheap pump as well. Good luck!
@mommarox2 Thanks! Iappreciate the comments. Be sure to watch some of the other videos too. It's amazing how many things can be made out of a balloon. I'll have more advanced and creative stuff being added started in June.
Oh your really good at this :D My dad loves balloon animals and I love contact juggling so we both kind of found something to do between you and the Amazing Kenny teehee ^-^
@TheSaphrone Thanks. And I'm just using 260s on this video. I use some 160s on some of the premium videos I sell online though if you'd like to learn that. If you go to my website and subscribe to my mailing list, then I can send you more information about the premium tutorials.
@RedRaccoon91 Thanks for the comments. I appreciate it. Please check back when you can. I constantly try to add more. In fact, I think a new one is due pretty soon. ;-)
Haha, this is my favourite. I have to add this to my collection. Where do you buy your balloons? And especially those white balloons which you use usually as eyes? Or have you got sponsors, but where can I get those white balloons?
The rubber bands are over the claws so that they don't pinch you. ;-) If you make it to a lobster restaurant where they are serving lobster, check out how they look in the tanks. They all have rubber bands. It was meant to be sort of a joke. ;-)
You have an excellent style in front of camera. It's very difficult to make a cheesy joke (reference to the monkey) without looking like an idiot. :-D I really struggled with this one though because I find the ear twists tricky and there are several on the lobster's back so mine went to sh*t. Not sure if my bubbles are too small or have too much air in so they're not as pliable or what!
@xmbomagic That's great to hear. I'm glad you finally got it down. It's not always easy. So, congratulations! All it takes is a little practice and a LOT of caffiene ;-) lol
What do balloons and virginity have in common? One prick and it's gone! LOL, sorry I couldn't resist. Seriously you are very talented! I just subscribed and I'm glad I did.
Thanks for the feedback. I am actually working on more videos now and look forward to using your suggestions to help make the videos better! Thanks! btw, I would love to see a video/photo of your project. And I would love to hear how you did too!
@DKMdkm123 u noticed a little detail about how lobsters eyes are black but missed the fact that lobsters are only orange after cooked. u should have said something like lobsters bodies are dark green. y criticize the video. its a balloon animal.
@kuruzaki1979 Thank you for your business and your comments. I really appreciate it. Also, please let me know which free and advanced tutorials you would like to see. I want to make sure you receive tutorials you would enjoy. All the best,
Would be really cool if there was a way to add the eyes in more detail the little kids like them but the sharpie black fill in isn't the best in the world they still love them so thanks
Not Mormon, but Christian. And just because I'm the only one in the world that seems to enjoy wearing a tux anymore doesn't mean you have to get jealous... ;-)
@13234656989 I sometimes do, but then it was suggested that I go straight into teaching the whole thing. If you have something special you would like to see, let me know. I make custom videos too.

You are so AMAZING!...thanks for blessing all those who need a smile!
May Lord bless you with many more balloons to share!
Cheryl in Oregon!
You are great at speaking instructions.Impressive results & dressed correctly & cleanly for food prep, even professional catering.
I could watch these videos all day. I wish this was on regular TV.
@lovetbaby Thanks for helping out with the responses. I've been pretty busy and unable to do as much as I would like. So, I appreciate it. You are right on though. The white balloon is a 260. I will try and be more clear in my next videos about this. Thanks.
@TheRealKingDong sounds great. I will have one coming out soon. I just have to get back to my studio to record more. It should be around June.
@wuzzzupdude That's great to hear! I am now posting videos every week now. So, keep watching.
As for the vest, I had it made.
@grandplans Thanks! And I appreciate the comments. Looking forward to hearing more from you in the future.
@InoYamanaka112 Awesome. That's great to hear. Be sure to sign up for the newsletter to get more information on when there are more videos available. ;-)
@Eusepio1957 Thank you. It's good to be here. I only hope I can make more this year too. I plan 1 a week. ;-)
@antieye555 The bands are to stop you from getting pinched. Lobsters can be dangerous sometimes. I don't want anyone to be injured.
@StayingCrafty Thanks. I hope that you can enjoy the other videos too. They are lots of fun.
Me encanto, esta muy bonita tu figura. y todas las demas que has hecho tambien. gracias por compartirlas.

Very nice Lobster ! Thank you very much for that great model.
Thumbs up if you don't ever plan on even trying to make these things, you just watch because they're amazing!!
@888CSC Thanks buddy. Hope to see you around again.
@Elusefelier Thank you. I appreciate your comments. Wishing you all the best in this new year!

Awesome project, thank you so much for sharing it with all of us!!!
@lovetbaby I'm glad you like it. Be sure to tell your friends ;-) lol
@6fjack I can certainly send you information on how to get balloons if you're interested.
You're so creative! You make it look so easy! great job! :)

@shaniafan4ever I can do both. However, I suggest blowing up your balloons with a pump as it is much safer.
what is amazing is that someone could figure out how to do stuff like this
@TheSaphrone I use a 260 for most all of this balloon.
Nice video! Looking forward to the Dragon video. I havent found one I really like yet.
This is so cute Mr. Fudge! One of my favorites. Just wondering... why the "rubber bands" on the claws? I missed the point there.
Hey man, great video. This is an art form onto itself.
@jcbsebrigh Thank you. I appreciate it. I'm trying to get more videos posted every week. Be sure to check back for more.
These are all mind blowing!!!!
Oh your really good at this :D My dad loves balloon animals and I love contact juggling so we both kind of found something to do between you and the Amazing Kenny teehee ^-^
So well done. Love it. I look forward to trying it out! :)
@BliesBilli haha, yeah... It's nice when your balloon animal doesn't attack you in the middle of a performance.
@TheSaphrone Thanks. And I'm just using 260s on this video. I use some 160s on some of the premium videos I sell online though if you'd like to learn that. If you go to my website and subscribe to my mailing list, then I can send you more information about the premium tutorials.

@5bJuggla Thanks. Keep watching. There are more always being added.
What do balloons and virginity have in common? One prick and it's gone! LOL, sorry I couldn't resist. Seriously you are very talented! I just subscribed and I'm glad I did.
Where did you learn to make all of these?
@lhemeon Thanks. I plan to post a new balloon twisting tutorial every week. So, keep in touch and subscribe and I'll see what more I can do.
@couchpotatotheatre That sounds like a great idea. I wish it were. If you know anyone in the TV field, be sure to let me know ;-)
