Your Luna-P is amazing! I love the idea of having a balloon inside and filling it with helium ^^
If you don't mind me asking, how did you assemble it? (I'm cosplaying Chibi-Usa next month, and am having difficulty making a Luna-P >.< )

Thank you! I speak a little bit about my construction in my commissions folder. I was inspired by a canvas ball that was going to be given away. To make something similar, you need to construct a beach ball shape with non-stretch fabric, and leave a buttonhole on the bottom. I made the ears our of foam, covered in fabric, and the moon is very light clay. The antenna is simply wire, wound into a clay base, with a clay ball glued on top. Everything was painted with a lacquer paint to finish it off.
Then to put it together, you insert a balloon, blow it up inside the canvas, and then put the antenna over the end, to cover the hole.
Hope this helps.

Ahhh, I see! I'm using a large bouncy ball for my first Luna-P, so I can bounce it around with me at cons ^^
But I'll have to buy some helium and try this method for a floating Luna-P.
Thanks for such detailed information, it was very helpful.
