What makes an inflatable look inflated?

Seams and pinch points. Real inflatables are made from flat panels welded together, so they bulge between seams and pucker where they are tied. Uniformly rounded forms with no seams read as plastic blobs instead.

Which subjects suit it?

Bold simple shapes — logos, letters, animals, single objects. Fine detail disappears entirely because inflation smooths every sharp feature into a curve.
