The wizard fire is a wysiwyg color and looks like a tealish color rod and it works like butter. I will check to see whats left and let you all know what they are.

Any more info on these colors Abe? I managed to snag some of them (unfortunately no bone marrow) and I'd be very interested in what to expect from them.

Hey Guys and gals I wanted to let everyone know about the colors that are left at Windship.
Alien Autopsy is almost like a baby blue opaque that does not fade or boil you can beat the crap out of it. There is ONLY 2 lbs left, this is one of my favs for sure I had to keep 10 lbs of this for myself.
Cuddle fish is like a greyish perriwinkle but smoother and a little more dense. Great color.
Wizard Fire is a wysiwyg color and looks like Agua Azul but more refactive index.
Lunar Delight is a weird greyish blue rod would look great in pendents or beads.
Lean Green Machine is a bad ass version of Mystrey Adventurine strikes purple like crazy. Dakest night very dark purple blue that is very nice.
Yellow Flavor is a weird color of canary and has some grey and brown lines running through it. Weird but cool
Forest Friends has 4 different shades of green dark green and blue green. I like this one for shading colors in tube stacks because I can get shades of green that are not out on the market.
Hope this helps there is not much left so if you want some get it while you can.
The Exit from OX can be incased with out cracking.

Hope you got what you wanted, Karen! Twice I got an email telling me what I really wanted was out of stock. Too bad, I fell in love with the Lean Green Machine. I'm done.

What's the "secret" to getting lean green to strike? Mine just stays green and sparkly.

Did anyone try 'Shiny'? It doesn't do too much for me. I made disks, encased some stuff...nada lotta.
Oh and BTW, anybody wanna trade some Bone Marrow, Rose Water and/or Algae for some Ghostly Images? I wish I had bought more Ghostly Images. Mmmm.

Lynda, the Lean Green strikes to purple for me pretty easily, it behaves like Mystery Aventurine with alot more silver. I just made the bead, heated it to molten, let it cool and reheated it in the flame shortly for a strike. It's very pretty.

Photos of some of the colors (THREAD HOG Warning!)
This one has Forest Friends, and Lean Green Machine along with Solara
The green sparkly bands on this one are Lean Green Machine (see the blue wisps? I think it's from LGM)
These have Lean Green Machine, Forest Friends, Solara and the bail and backing is Exit from Oz (really nice sparkly chocolate brown)

Yes I had it too -- if you look at the bail on the last picture you will see it.
I think we just need to mix it around, get those bubbles out or work pretty cool.
It's really a pretty color . . .
Somebody else post some pics so I'm not the only doofus on here LOL.

Very nice Jami and Lana!
Rebecca, when I use shiny by itself, it's pretty much WYSIWYG. But, when I layered it over DAP, and encased, it got a nice mirrorized look about it. I thought, Ah-ha, shiny! I'll try to get a picture up soon.
That Oz looks pretty cool.

Lana and Jamie, what gorgeous colors!
My Exit from Oz is red--like a ruby sparkle. Haven't gotten any dark or chocolate tones out of it. Will have to experiment!

well apparently I got all the wrong colours.....I thought for sure that wizards fire would have been a striking glass with a name like that. Forest friends and Uncle nester are nice greens but nothing outrageous. Descriptions would have really helped with the selection process.

Thanks Lisa! I tried what you wrote and...it didn't look good for me still. Oh well. It's name, Shiny, had such promise. lol
Lana, I love those spirals! Jamie, that is a yummy, yummy pendant!
I did some leaves and shells. The leaves on the left are Ghostly Images and the other ones are Lean Green Machine. The one leaf bottom left had some Blue Caramel frit swirled in.
Both of the shells were done with Ghostly Images over Green Mist. The big one has a ruffle of Lean Green Machine.
I hope they make at least a few of these again. Especially Ghostly Images and Lean Green.

All the pendants are very good
Almost all the pendants in this post are nice. The one in circular form with dark color(Oz swirled with Triple Passion and Star White) is much more attractive.
