    Love it....
    The decanter especially impresses me...
    I would love to see you put a back ground layer in there and add some "stained glass" colouring effect....
    allot of feeling in your work...

    Thanks morphonius! Is this what you would like to see??
    I'm sure someone else could probably come up with more variations of the stained glass look but this is it for now....I had fun with it though!
    The mauve colour is a bit on the blurry side...it looked better as a xar file but you get the idea though...

    I do like the middle one, Michele.
    The one on the right might look better in a dark blue, like Bristol Glass.
    As in the "something simple" thread by TimS where I posted a photo as an example.

    The one on the right could be carved from Turkish Delight

    Thats great steve j, I liked that one too - I think it was the contrasting colours against the shadows that made it look somehow more solid perhaps.

    Well I know what's on your mind Steve! Mmm the colour is similar to the turkish delight wrapper come to think of it. Grin. Wonder how that would go as a drink??

    I like the blue ones a lot, Michele. I know this is dragging the purpose of the challenge a little further off topic than it already is, but now you are this far along the road,
    you could give the blue and pink ones some highlights that would increase the glass effect and at the same time would reduce the Turkish Delight® or Jello® effects.

    Hi Bob, thanks for those comments!
    Now that you've jogged my memory, I remember that post and mine is not going to come anywhere close to it! Grin.
    Anyway here are a couple of blue bottles showing the lines thru the blue colour...no they're not jellyfish, Steve!

    All the best
    Michele
