Subject: Re: Large Pink Panther

Larry Moss had a Pink Panther in a tutu and I downloaded the file in post
script.
There is one in 'Balloon Cartoons an Other Favorites' by Aaron Hsu-Flanders.
I like the pink panther better in Balloon Fun (1988 published by Louis
Weber).  This book also has a Big Bird (not as elaborate as John Holmes's)
but recognizable.  My daughter (who is now 10) liked the Pink Panther and
called it the Pink Panzer when she was young.
Ken Ahrens makes a 350 Pink panther that is LARGE.  Working with 350 is
different since you have to convert to 350 due to the different length to
diameter ratio.  Ken is considering writing a book on 350 sculptures but does
not seem to have the time.
I will try taking a photo of the pink panther to put on the web page.
