so im tryin to figure out thiese dick flips and im just kinda guessing. heres what im doing.
on a 19 mil tube point blow a bubble
i layed down some lines and then imploded a bit then twist
then poped a hole up the tube above the ball to fit my sheers
cut almost all the way around then punty the back flame cut it off
then flare it out a bit
so i dont know if im doing this the hard way or what
any tips?
also i tryed doing rattechelo but i keep ending up with it alll the same way

do design on end of ball. Blow out so design is at the end of ball but ball is bigger. heat design, let sink back into the ball. punty to the center of coned in design. heat the clear where you want it seperated.
Give it a puff. stretch and flame cut. Punty to opposite side. Trim edges and its ready to attach.

the way i heard was to blow a bubble, draw, implode a bit, get melted etc, then push the end of your bubble to a flat, the same size as the peice you plan to inlay it to, tak them toogether, then flame cut the clear bubble off of the back of your new disc flip

only problem i can think of with that though is that your lines between sections might not end up super clean like if you connected a small opening between 2 sections and let them flow together
