Color was fun to learn. Here's every piece except the bubbler I made. The bubbler looks so awful I think I might just throw it away or maybe have a "RIU Donkey" award where the biggest jackass on the forum gets a free shitty bubbler.
002: From left to right, my first real coloring attempt and then as we go to the right you'll see the improvements in just 3 pipes. I also made two marbles.
003: I botched it up, didnt make the tubes consistancy that I wanted, so I gave it a funky spiral instead. It looks like a christmas ornament except in a caramel color. It has a tiny crack in it due to the consistancy issue. Since I save all my work, on the shelf it goes!
004: My new bowl pushing technique starts the hole for the bowl at the base of the head (head = bubble). This allowed me to push the bowl with thicker glass, and allows you to SEE the bowl as your smoking it, instead of the bowl being perfectly horizontal when smoking it. I'm going to be doing them all this way from now on. The little gentle swirl was pretty neat.
005: The color combinations for this really worked out well. The carb is a tiny bit off, but I left it that way since everyone likes carbs in different spots, so might as well make a mistake into someone elses preference!
006: Hard as hell to photograph this one. It's a butterscotch-colored magic mushroom with a pomegrante base. I used dirty glass when making it since it was my first mushroom attempt, so its kinda ugly, but now that I know how, they will be better.
007: This marble is about 2" in diameter, maybe 2 1/8" at best. Its made by pressing a flat disc on the end of a rod (called a punty), and then layering it with the bottom colors then clear on the top. After, the bottom half was coated again in a cobalt blue color (I know, I love cobalt blue) and the accented with 3 layers of dots. Each layer of dot is melted in, then the next dot, melt, next dot, melt, and that's what gives it the blue center, light blue ring, then white outer ring. After the dots are firmly set and the marble is rounded, a tungsten pick is then used to "rake" the molten glass to give those triple dots the heart shaped swirl you see on the next photo.
008: The back side of the marble.
009: Blury, but you get the hint. Its sitting on the bowl of another spoon just so it stays still while taking that photo
010: All 3 pipes plus the 2 marbles, but with no camera flash.
011: Sure go through a lot of soda............ =)
Next I'm going to work on adding milliforetti knobs on the pipes as well as many more color and shaping choices.
So I guess color wasnt too hard after all.................
Thanks for reading as always!

That's why I've been a bit lazy at production!
