A few years ago, jamesp send me some of his fabulous material, and now, finally the colour works perfectly for one of the FB challenges.
One slabette, two projects,....

And just in time for Halloween

While searching for material for eyes to use on the bat, got sidetracked and started a free-form opal and redid n old misshapen project in Crown of Silver.

Nahh, its not that hard. But holds edges better than most materials.

Got lucky with the colour distribution.
Was worried about the head being invisible, but as it turns out, the area of the head is a much brighter colour than the surrounding area, so its just fine.
