LaceFace unquestionably gets the endurance prize- she started with the rest at 10:30 AM and was still flaming when I left at 2AM, I hear she turned it off at 4

Whoops........too many images, the finished pieces will have to be next post....

[Black Fire]

OK now, I got pics of most of the finished pieces, but I warn you now- my pics suck! My camera's been a bit tweeky lately. So don't bitch at me, and I pray that someone will post far better pics shortly. Also- the pics of JOP's piece as well as Saki Bomb's didn't come out at all; sorry for the fail!!!

Altogether an exceedingly fun time, loads of great conversation with sharp minds from all over, insane flames, pounding sound systems all day, mind blowing glass of all shape and size!!!

Mad respect to the Cornerstone, who keeps showing us how much they have their shit together, very impressive!!!!!!!

amazing event, gets better every year, epic pieces made of course

BlackFire--i spoke to Chaz about the piece he was working on, an enormous devil looking lady made out of elvis, he didn't finish in the time allotted, and decided to hold it back for a proper finish and presentation....it looked killer tho

no pics of Royal's fumeScratch OR Saki's Sundae....those were 2 of my favorites!

thank you Cornerstone and Mer and everyone that works so hard to put on this amazing event, much respect, look forward to the future

Black Fire - thank you thank you thank you for the amazing pics - just about the next-best thing to actually being there. Well done!

[Bryan]

Ill work all around!!!...hilarious that someone dubbed up Black ops zombies...

[Black Fire]

I like the DFO because I like glass artists.

Why do I like glass artists? Because they have many excellent characteristics, namely they tend to be free thinking yet businesslike, artistic yet scientifically honed, independant, creative, and motivated to make new things happen.

Now with a big facility packed full of firepower and filled with those kind of brains, not to mention the pounding sound systems....

If these are degenerates then I must simply say FUCK A BABYLON LIFESTYLE!!!

[LTD]

I had a great time!! Thanks for the pics. I will try and post up some soon. It was great meeting those of you that I did get a chance to meet.

[FizZle]

sweeeeeeeeeeeeeet thanks for the pics...looks like it was epic as hell...hope i can make it out for this next yr
