First gauge attempts and 3 and 4 marbles (number of times ive done marbles)

Awesome stuff! Brayjr, that pendant is TDF, and the turtle is just stupendous.
Earl, the heart with the ribbon (?) is fabulous. Love it.
James, the gauges are really pretty.

I've been playing too. Still learning, of course.

Tubing stuff:

Gorgeous work, as always, marcel.

I'm blown away by the precision and always perfect colour combos, Marcel. Very inspiring.

valjean 2013-02-08 5:12pm

Great to have you back, I remember when you started your adventure back in 2010.
You posted a lot in the beginning then lost contact. I kept checking your blog but seemed Iike you just disappeared.
Oh well doesn't matter, just hope you had tons of fun and met great people along the way.......Val

Awesome work Marcel! To Valjean....you can keep more current with Marcel's work on FB.

patezd 2013-02-09 11:42am

I was intrigued with GA's Andromeda but couldn't find many pics of it so I went ahead and bought some anyway! Now I'm in looooooove. This is GA Andromeda over clear with NS Super Unobtanium for the mane and forelock. I wish the pic showed the sparkle better........thank God for sunny days! :)


valjean 2013-02-09 12:46pm

Good to know and thanks, but I was actually talking about JR (brayjr4484), the guy who started this Thread............Val

I love the turtle Brayrj4484 and James, what is a "gauge" all about?
A little change in direction here with a blown bead.
cheers, Bernard

essiemessy 2013-02-10 2:00pm

Beautiful horse sculpture :love:

And I'm blown away by the visual textures in the bead, Bernard.

James Lewis 2013-02-10 5:29pm

Gauges are large ear peiecings. The ones shown are on 6 mm rod and tubing.

Some more gauges on 6mm

essiemessy 2013-02-10 5:38pm

Very nice, James.

Still playing with encasing tubing and blowing bubbles :lol:

I suck at loops, so I'm finding different ways of hanging them. These work, but need some refinement.
This top one I've been wearing and it works very well.

Liking the idea of a vine type hanger. Love this green glass, but the silver wire was a bad idea. Fireworks!
http://i95.photobucket.com/albums/l1...t/IMGP7655.jpghttp://i95.photobucket.com/albums/l1...t/IMGP7656.jpg

Working on the loopless tops, I've learned that there is only so far you can pull tubing before it's too delicate to use. But I'll rework this one. It's too pretty not to (IMHO).

Vine hanger again:
http://i95.photobucket.com/albums/l1...t/IMGP7666.jpg

Liver. Yay. But liking the ruffles and the roundness:
http://i95.photobucket.com/albums/l1...t/IMGP7667.jpg

What was I thinking??? An accident but I feel an idea coming on :-D

Cool experimenting with the different hanger ideas! :)
