Title: Double implosion marble
Post by: garishglobes on December 16, 2011, 12:25:10 PM
Well, sort of... butterfly above flower, both imploded  :)   
The implosions need work (for a start, there are far too many bubbles!!), but I was pleased that it came out the way I thought it would.

Nice marble

Which white is it? I always have trouble imploding white
Title: Re: Double implosion marble
Post by: garishglobes on January 09, 2012, 12:37:28 PM
I'm not sure.. I usually use borostix white, and I think that is what is on the butterfly. The flower could well be something else, either Northstar or TAG, both of which I have. I suspect the bubbles are partly a melting-in problem as much as the white, but could also be due to the colour used. I've heard that Chinese white is the best for implosions, but haven't got any so can't really comment.

This is really impressive.
I'm a fan of bubbles in glass because I think it gives it depth.
