That (sandblasted?) Raven is my favorite. You have a good touch with form. Thanks for sharing so we can enjoy.

Wow, Marcel! My favorite is the raven, no, the bear, nope, the raven, bear, raven, bear, raven....Damn, LOVE them both! :)

I keep trying to make a nice goblet

I find it hard to make the feet nice, this one turned out more random shaped.

Great start to the month.

Marcel ... beautiful as always.

Adam ... nice goblet ... I like the foot ... it looks like waves.

Working to make Spring themed beads ... really happy how this came out ... next time it needs sparkle added. :lol:

Heres my work from this week.

Here's my first contribution to a Show & Tell thread:




(Sorry if the images are too large, I wasn't sure...)

The eye pendant was my first attempt at something of that kind, and my first iris cane.
Looking forward to seeing more of everyone's stuff.
I love the Nebula Bear!
Nice colors, everyone.
Martha

Very nice flow to your pendants Martha.

Wow everyones work is amazing! Such a diverse group each piece is a stand out. Thanks for the inspiration.

I thought I would share. I don't do much boro, just some pendants once in a while, but I decided to try some beads.

my first few things after a long winter off the torch.

So much gorgeous work. Thanks for the eye candy ... I needed it this morning!!

Thought I'd share Trev's new Unicorn Belt Buckle..

cool buckle.

Thank you everybody :wave: and Wow!! cool work everybody!
Here is a pendant i finished today i made the face, and my Dad did the metalwork. i am so happy working together with my Dad ;)

very nice collaboration with your Dad Marcel. I enjoy working with my dad too he is not an artist but we work in the garden together and other outside projects he always give me the impression that I can do anything and learn anything if I put my mind to it. A very great man and an awesome Dad.

We need Like buttons around here...... lol

Like :)

Nice work everybody!

I'm into fuming these days.

looking great here
I have mostly been working soft glass these days but I sat down to play with boro, opal and sandblasting

Did another glass

I constantly get the stem a bit off center and the lips of the glass always gets crooked :/

but I'm getting there.

are the lips being crooked due to the stem being off center? like when you spin it out, it's not "true"?

i've messed around with goblets a bit (i'm nowhere ready to make stuff like that, but i can't help myself) and every time i make one, the rim/lip gets wonky. i can only assume it's due to my stem being off center, which is due to my hands shaking lol.

@Papi and Baywinger - Nice stuff. Love the fume color and the backside of that marble.

Yeah I guess it takes a little practice to put the stem right in the center, I haven't really managed that yet :) anyone got any advice?

The lips turns wonky when I flare it open so yes it might be partially because the stem is not centered, but it might be my fault too.
I haven't made that many goblets yet, this is my seventh one.

Adam, I know from my humble experience that you are progressing and doing great! Keep the pics coming!

Yes keep going, blown work still eludes me but in the long run it is a great technique to learn.
