Down the Rabbit Hole |
Lead | ||
|
In honor of the upcoming 'Alice in Wonderland' (or maybe reflections on 'The Matrix', depending on your personality), I submit to you the
greatest batch of 4-way and 6-way vortexes ever assembled in one place. You guessed it - The Gongsta has been at it hard, and this is the grand result of a
few months of painstaking work. I really need to stop using the term 'mind-numbing' in regards to marbles I love, so I can save it for the truly
sensational moments, like this. Each marble has either 4 or 6 vortices on it, and they are jumbos, ranging in size from 2.6" to 2.9". These came to
me in 3 shipments, and each shipment had my jaw scraping the floor worse each time. Just call me Pelican Boy, sweeping up the floor everywhere I went for days
afterwards.

Enjoy....Brian |

12 o'clock is probably my favorite. Great set of marbles there Brian. You should keep them all.

Thanks everybody, Mike dun good, didn't he!
"You should keep them all." What a fantastic dream that would be.... You got it Rob - 11:00, 1:00 and 5:30 all have fumed pulsators instead of the traditional vortexes. Brian |

marbles. Loving all of them.

Beautiful work Mike!
I always say that I don't like knowing how marbles are made because it take away some of the mystery, but I'd love to look over Mike's shoulder while he made one of his multi's. Great pic as always Brian. |

I agree John, it would be fun to spend a day (or two) with Mike to watch one of these being made. I onle have a vague understanding with these.
The marbles for sale are now in the Gong gallery at glassORBits.com if anybody is inerested. Loads of beautiful pics of each marble, fun just to look at. 4 of the 7 have quickly sold, but the 3 left are some of the best. The Sky multi is still available. Blessings...Brian |

What an awesome group of marbles! Brian, I believe you are showing remarkable constraint by only keeping
three for yourself. It would be so difficult to choose only three! The multi window pulsators are making me salivate and drool.
Is it my imagination or has the Gongstah invented a few new color shades in the color spectrum or what?!?! I see several examples in these marbles of the purplish/lavendarish/violetish color he "invented" that I love so much ... nurple. |

Thanks everybody!!! Especially Brian, and all the collectors out there keeping me going.
Nice shot Bri, it's my new desktop! It's soooooo cool to see 10 of these together in one spot... something I've never seen before! I feel these are some of my best yet =) John, if you're ever in Portland, you're invited over for a (verrrrry loooong) day to see me make one of these... even then, I still might lose it... the marble that is =D Nurple is the new black!!! |
