Those are outstanding. And your Tahoma is exceptional — it really has great patterns and strong colors!
I also must confess that I see Dr. Seuss' Grinch in the pattern on the left side. The Grinch is looking away from us at the darker pattern, which must be his cave.  |

The Tahoma was a consolation prize. Tahoma should be cut across the seams but that produces narrow preforms. I cut with the seams so the preform had matrix on both sides. I took the face down the best I could and the grinch is matrix. It wasn't design it was whatever showed up.  These are small preforms and all I could get out of pieces with the fractures.  |

Dugway is more suited to being a specimen. I was fortunate to get 3 slabs to make preforms. I was going to dome this one but didn't want to destroy the edges around the druse pocket so I made it a flat top.
