I know, I know, two threads in two days is kind of obnoxious. I don't have a work thread and I really wanted to post this piece.

I was inspired after reading about the Kandy Apple red tubing that was at the Glassroots show. I made this tubing with two northstar uniques. A super sparkly version of unubtanium that was more blue (forget the name) and coated it with goats blood.

Sorry about the lint on the close up shot...

Is posting first in both your threads obnoxious as well? Oh well...
Looks great man, like a candy apple sparkle car paint.

Everything about this piece is dope. The shaping is really on point. Love the flow, and it looks super thick.

Very, very nice man. I really like the shaping in this piece, it terminates really smoothly at the avolio section. Looks like a clean two tone effect at the lip, too. We've been playing with this combo a bit at the shop, too, and loving it. Always a pleasure to see your work man.

Thanks guys.

The goats blood is a unique that was around a few months back. It is a really rich red that strikes pretty easily. I think the sparkle is sparkle darkle or duo ou, not sure which. I do not label the uniques as I cannot get them again anyways. Too bad, because that round was particularly good.

that piece looks great, man! You're totally doing justice to a great colour combo.
goats blood is the shiz! I love it, alas, I only got a pound of it and I can't find any more of it. I wish I'd bought 10 lbs ... Make us more goats blood, Abe!

oh, and the uo duo I got had no sparkle in it, so it was probably the other that you used...unless they sent me the wrong colour.

I found the color that I used for the sparkle layer. It is actually from a batch of unobtanium odds that I picked up from MGA. I got them around the same time I got the uniques, hence the confusion.

The sparkle darkle is pretty sick though. I may give it a try with that as the base.

I only got a pound of goats blood as well. Too bad, as it is sick.
