thanks Rog, I'm enjoying the mixed media but I haven't been enjoying dealing with the sewage swamp at the studio. We had over 20 grand damage from that little episode, studio has finally been cleaned and sanitized by the pro cleaners, waiting for plumbers to do their bit now. We're set up in a limited capacity elsewhere for the moment and doing some small scale production for outstanding orders. The mixed media stuff is what I've been doing at home to clear my mind.
Here's a ray gun.

OK i havent been on line in a bit and just looked over the gallery for this month, WOW. its amazing to see how far everyone has come since i started surfing this forum. The art work blows me away, everyone is stepping outside of their boxes or making their boxes bigger. I was blown away today. thanks all for the inspiration.

Okay, okay. If even the slides are making it in then I guess I'll post something too.

New sets from me. These are big.

that's some great work there
loco-The teeth are very very cool, for some reason those jars remind me of the Bee Gees ... are they "Stayin' Alive" jars?
Weeilainy-Those beads are cool, I'd have that pendant in a flash, and I love the holographic effect on that first set.
The nautilus just rocks, Eric!
Nice implosions, Dave, you're going to have a lot of fun exploring this technique, I still find new stuff to do with it and loving it! I like the black pendant, too, anything that reminds me of the flame on my torch gets my vote Nice strawberry, too, I've found that a tool like this fixed to a handle is great for putting texture on a strawberry, too.
You tell interesting stories, Pipyr, I really love how that piece turned out. The great thing is, that there are as many stories in this piece as there are people who look at it ... you're really onto something! ... more, please ...
steak, dude, people have posted dildos and dripping penises in here ... I don't think you're out of place with this work, they're very fun pieces to look at, you bring out those fumy colours really well. The third from last one is sweet as.
Harold, I'm in awe of you. The amount of cold working you put into your beads astounds me, not only because I can't stand having to do a lot of coldwork myself (apart from sandblasting), but the effect is amazing and you choose your colours so well ... not to mention the exposed patterns. Just beautiful!

Honey, we ALL know tobacco smokes for shit outta glass. I make pot pipes outta glass and even my neighbor, who is an FBI agent, knows that! So I say post your spoons and slides, it's all good in my book!

Ohh and nice oil dome!

Yup. Rule of thumb is that it's a bad idea to post anything actually portraying any illegal substance. I think something to that effect is probably in the T&C's for the site, but I can't say I've actually read it.

The pretty glass sculpture that could theoretically be used to smoke tobacco out of is fine though
