I've been meaning to share the pattern, but I still haven't learned how to use a nice diagram program. However, as the perfect is the enemy of the good, I have decided that sketches are good enough for now. :)
The 3-D version utilizes split rings, but in order for the "tips" of the ring to point in the correct direction for a balloon animal, the split rings are ALSO folded rings - a folded ring is folded in half as it is being closed, making a crescent moon shape, a fun technique I first saw on Jane Eborall's Turtle Doodle.
Please let me know if you have suggestions for improving the instructions/diagrams! I'm new to this.
