Oh Bert .... these are gorgeous!
Are the solid sparkly ones towards the top silver? Gold?
What about this one? Is that gold in it?

Oh ... and are the red ones short for Brutus?
It is sparkly grey/silver in that tip, and the red ones are a little shorter. I've been trying to keep the camera at the same distance and zoom, and cropping at a fixed size so that the tips are displayed relatively proportional to each other in the pictures.
Brutus will be so happy! LOL
I need gold!!!! That tip is gorgeous though .... man, good job!

OH MY-what nice tips you have there. The colors are great. The multi black/silver/white the blue mixes and the dark blue and those vibrant reds.
Just gorgeous I tell ya. I need to move to CO, but it gets far too cold for me

Thanks! These are a joint effort between myself and Freddy!
Oh WOW Bert I only see the ONE donut and Blue is my favorite color, Go ahead and put my Name on it everybody else wants Red anyhow.(once again Bert A pat on the back My Friend) HAPPY NEW YEAR>
I hate to be a bother but a n00b has to ask ?'s in order not to be a n00b anymore. Right? I've been eyeballing these tips for awhile now and don't quite get the ordering procedure. Any vets out there that can clear things up for me? Thanks again for all the help.
Looks like ribbons of colors just flowing around inside of them-wonderful job to you and Freddy!

^^^^ This is and "Inside Out" Frit design. Inside out means that the outside is all clear glass, and the color is applied to the inside of the tube before it is sculpted. The effect allows the clear glass on the outside to become a lens. If you want to see something cool try submersing an inside out design like this in a glass of water to negate the lens effect.
^^^^ This is an inside out implosion. An implosion means that the glass is blown up like a balloon before clear is applied to the outside. This pushes the color out of the way when the bubble is deflated and sculpted making that nice honeycomb (or the brain twist) effect.
Cool, thanks for the info. I previously thought the terms inside out and implosion were interchangeable. I got a couple of pieces around here I can try that trick out on as well.
case - Bert normally swings by here also to give us "hints" of when they might go up.
Bert, I have one of the yellow dichor-whatever you said ones. It is really gorgeous, but not a pillar .... it's one of the platypus-topped ones. Anyway, I'm gonna use it on my "Goldie" when she gets here, and I'll post a pic.

I like the lt blue ones where the color appears to be a thread inside the clear ..... just gorgeous.
Ok - just saw ... they must be inside-outs ...
