Nice!

dlando1 · #92 2013-10-11, 10:16am

Still trying to get the blues to come out. Almost got it on the second one.
Great glass PaPi!

dlando1 · #93 2013-10-14, 9:20am

Just one fume from yesterday.

Thought I'd share a flower I was able to make this week. All fume with black backing.

dlando1 · #95 2013-10-20, 12:33pm

A couple of fumes.

Onekura · #96 2013-10-21, 10:43pm

Finally, I got the perfect blue. This is the "electric blue" I always wanted to get. I could try a thousand times and not get it again. This is "my blue"! This one is not for sale!

dlando1 · #97 2013-10-22, 3:19am

Damn Burn, that is beautiful. .

dlando1 · #98 2013-10-25, 10:28am

A couple of fumes from me.

Onekura, nice blue!
Dave, interesting effect especially in the first one!

I put an opal.

Beautiful fume work. It's a shame I'm so busy working on getting stuff for a show this Saturday... I seem to remember one of you guys had a couple tutorials up on their personal website on how to make cool twisted fume pendants...Maybe next week

In the meantime keep up the good work!

jhamilton117 · #**101** 2013-10-29, 11:31am

Anyone have links to those tuts?

dlando1 · #**102** 2013-10-29, 12:55pm

Hey Jeremy, On page 3 of this thread, Onekura posted a YouTube vid #84. Also check out his post #83 for applying fume to glass. He is a master, just check out his glass.

Bunyip, if you are talking about my old, very simple tut, it is not there anymore because I closed down my website. I can post it here, but it is very poor and only for total beginners. But the pendant actually looked good and has a nice sparkle in the sun

Onekura · #**104** 2013-10-29, 1:02pm

and the rest of it . . .

Onekura · #**105** 2013-10-29, 1:06pm

for a cool effect, fume one side of the paddle with silver and the other with gold - looks nice

Bunyip · #**106** 2013-10-30, 5:13am

Yep, Bernard, that's the one I was thinking. I made one of those, it came out very nice.

Thanks for reposting.

Bunyip · #**107** 2013-10-30, 5:32am

Just went back through this thread, those honeycombs are amazing too. I've never had any luck with that tech.

I've tried fuming the inside and the outside and I never have had any luck. I need to ambush a 'comb master and make them demo, I'm sure that I'm doing something stupid that ruins them.!

I think it looks great. A beginner like myself would love to have a pendant come out that nicely.

I made a quick page for the tutorial here:
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/...tTutorial.html

If you want me to take it down, OneKura, let me know and I will. I put a link to your Facebook page at the top.

Onekura · #**109** 2013-10-30, 10:59am

thank you bep - I am all happy with that

dlando1 · #**110** 2013-11-01, 12:12pm

Hey PaPi, did you fume that pendant in multiple stages? It is beautiful. Here are a few that I just pulled out of the kiln.
Dave

PaPiGlass · #**111** 2013-11-02, 3:53am

Dave, nice works! I like the second one best.
And about my pendant, yes, it consists of two parts. One is raticello (or opposing spiral. I don't know the exact name for that) with heavy silver fume and the other is flower like part with heavy gold fume and a bit of silver fume. I fumed gold first and place 6 dots around the center and fumed silver before placing other dots. After I finished the both parts, I put them together with an opal between them.

dlando1 · #**112** 2013-11-02, 1:58pm

Hi PaPi, Did you make two separate pendants and then joined them? Anyway that is beautiful pendant. Here are a couple from yesterday.
Dave

deb tarry · #**113** 2013-11-03, 8:29am

Wow you guys rock the fuming.

Bunyip · #**114** 2013-11-04, 7:29am

My tubing implosion game is SO off... I can't get nice blooms or "shark teeth". It's been so long since I made them and for some reason it's NOT like riding a bicycle for me. Practice practice practice.

Onekura · #**115** 2013-11-04, 9:35pm

a little gold and silver fume from me

dlando1 · #**116** 2013-11-05, 8:20am

OK Bernard, now you have to make a fumed dragons eye in a compression flower. Oh yeah, and w/ an opal in it, while hopping on one foot. Nice pendant by the way.

Using only a Bic lighter for a torch.

Nice fumes, all.

Onekura · #**118** 2013-11-05, 10:49pm

I might be able to handle the eye-implotion (havn't got an opal), but the Bic lighter . . .
Anyways thanks for the comments. I have been busy doing those eyes and my idea was to do an eye with scales arround it. Doing scales proved to be a challange. I have many eyes with all sorts of scales looking at me. I dedicated one bottle of oxy to make eyes and it has spiraled off to many new ideas. Here is another one with fumed scales - front and back - trying to get that reptile look

bepnewt · #**119** 2013-11-06, 8:19am

Gorgeous. Thanks for sharing.

Sweet green metallic with the fuming for the scales.
