BTW, I really really really appreciate the heads up from those who can't participate. It lets others take part instead of holding an empty spot. We'll miss you this year but (if I survive and everyone ends up happy with this year's exchange) I would consider doing it again next year (maybe).
Dean, found your name in the pendant thread.
Hey guys, marble pic time! First two are a recent experiment, first is the fume, second is the backing.

Second attempt at a honeycomb marble, not as burnt out as the first. Nothing but black on the backing for this one.

This one here's probably the largest I've made. About 1 3/4" wide, though I haven't measured it precisely. I way overcomplicated the pattern, I think, which was a very valuable lesson.

Basic anemone marble with a heart-design backing. Real simple.

I'm still not sure if I'm going to be sending any of these out with the Marble exchange or if I just want to keep getting better between now and pre-deadline shipping time. Lord knows I was self-conscious enough just posting these, but I'm completely open to criticism. I don't think I'd have made these, even, if I hadn't decided to make myself a part of this exchange so thank you guys for the impetus!
Sorry for the image quality and the lack of embedded pics, this is the fastest way I can do them it seems. When I tried to start a work thread, the photos I tried to embed just vanished, so I think the hyperlink is the best I can do for now. Thanks for looking!
Sorry, trying again on that honeycomb marble.

Sweet!
Lookin' good!
That honeycomb is nice and clean. I'll have to break out some concepts to get my mrbs. up to caliber. I'm excited about a couple ideas I'd like to try though so this weekend may be marbly for me.
Thank you guys very much! I've been working hard and my only intention is to get better at them before I try to mail them out in this exchange here, because I think a community of artists trading art is a wonderful thing to be a part of and I'm thrilled for being able to throw my hat in the ring. I have been quite eager to become a part of the greater glass community and every step of the way has just been more enriching.
And hippie chicks dig fire. :D
Awesome lookin mibs, Jestr.....and great attitude. Love the comb. I'm a sucker for a tight honeycomb.
Yeah I wish my combs looked that nice.
Rich's marbles arrived and are absolutely beautiful. If there were bonus points, Rich would get them for super careful shipping!
There are 12 for the exchange and one for me! Woooo! Thanks Rich!
My picture in no way does these marbles justice. There is lots of bling going on. Props also for making them in 104 - way harder to manage in my personal experience.
Update time:
Jah you are in on both exchanges.

If you are in the pendant exchange as well and have already completed your marbles, it is ok with me if you ship them together.
Please note however, I am NOT waiting to ship your exchanges back combined in a single package. You will get one package of exchange pendants and a second package of exchange marbles.
Wish I'd seen this a lot earlier.
If the space comes up, can you add a long-time lurker, please?
Sean
Actually there was one withdrawal yesterday so there is a spot for you Sean. I'll add you to the list.
Splendid! Thanks....
