Hello :)
Have been torching afternoon, yay, having so much fun! but I have a wee question...when I ordered stuff from tuffnells last, I ordered some reichenbach magic...um, because it sounded pretty (how dumb does that sound?!) and I was wondering what to do with it! Or some inspiration of what to put with it etc...does it reduce? arg, this is probably the stupidest question ever, but thanks in advance! ;D
It's a striker - similar to raku. Try pulling skinny stringers and putting it on a black base or make stringer of black base with stripes of magic and swirl it over an opaque base. I get the best results when it's thin and I don't make a lot of fuss about striking it, if it's thin enough it doesn't need it.
These are magic

You can also reduce it, like here..
