Default OK, can't keep them a secret anymore

I have been working a bit on some new textured beads. I'm so excited about
the technique that I can't resist showing some of the results any longer.
This is still in the preliminary stages of development, but it has major
potential. So here they are (be patient, page takes a while to load):

Love them all. Such organic textures. The first reminds me of hugely
magnified pollen. The blue second reminds me of alligator hide and how
alligatorsflex their skin to make the water crackle and jump. (The last of
the 3 blue beads reminds me of rattles on a diamond back). That third
texture reminds me of either a fossil bone that has been worn down to a
round nub (like would be found when hydrolic mining where there are fossils)
or else like seed case at the head of a flower. And the 4th, those nubs and
bumps remind me of minerals building up in, or dripping down from, a cave.

Grant -

I have a set of mah jongg games by Moraff. One of them is called SphereJongg
and I'd swear you duplicated one of the spheres from that game! Very cool!

Like seed pods, or sea-tumbled shells. Wonderful work, very exciting stuff,
