Default feedback needed

I posted these in the vessel exchange and the big gallery but bear with me i want some of you boro peeps feedback rather then just ooh and prettys
Not that i dont like those too

Okay so this is the first one I made. I blew her all out of standard wall tubing adding no extra glass at all. should I explore this new area for myself or scrap it and begin again?

Anyone have any tips on how to make her better?
I am going to try again tomorrow I kep having trouble with things collapsing after I blew them I think i need better heat control. And a little more torso shape. Anyways thanks ahead of time.

Default Goddess Vessel

Hi Neighbor
I Think your on the right track. It isn't easy to keep the tubes from falling in when they get thin. I learned from making a couple of pipes that if you add a bit of extra glass to the parts that you blow out a little more (T&A) it might help. I too have tried a blowen goddess vessel With a twist If you'll forgive my silliness I'll show you what I'm talking about:



And with the head/stopper off:



Anyway with a little practice you're going to have a nice sellable product
Kare
