Glow was asked by the Royal Horticultural Society to create two inflatable Yellow and Green Cellar Slugs. We were asked to replicate the slugs intricate patterns as closely as possible which was really tricky on a 3D form but we achieved it and with great success and a very happy customer as a result.
The slugs are being used to raise awareness that the Yellow Cellar Slug population has dropped due to the increase of the Green. The interaction that the client received with the slugs was really successful and they are looking forward to taking the pair out on many more outings.
Inflatables can be a cost effective way of replicating any sort of shape such as inflatable animals or characters alongside other custom organic shapes that can be made to look just like the real object or shape by using complex printing techniques and finishes or different materials.
We love a challenge at Glow and these slugs were a really nice little order to focus our skills on.
