glass


I just acquired some glass stringers (wires) and I'm using my little smithy torch to do some rogue lampworking. This is the first time I've ever worked with hot glass (besides sand casting) and it sure looks like it. This 2" tall "scholars rock" was a blast to make, I can't wait to make something that looks good.

I'm sculpting a shell out of wax

This thing is actually grown by adding little blobs of molten wax which make up the striated texture. It is completely hollow. It is one inch long.
I didn't realize my scanner was so dusty, I guess I should clean it.
