If the third one has a neon base it's a "neon bee" VVHTF, to be considered a zebra it has to have a white opaque base, the color of the ribbons may vary but not the white base glass, av. is not a requirement ?? The gray dragon is killer, not to many out there, has flaming ribbons to, an added plus. Angels weather green, blue, or red have a muddy colored semi translucent base glass, grey dragons have an opaque grey base. You have 2 rare pelts there, the neon bee & the grey dragon are both VVHTF marbles. PICS OF THE NEON BEE FROM THE PELTIER MARBLES INFO SITE ANGEL PICS COURTESY OF AAM Though the bases do appear greyish in this pic they are muddy, not grey, the muddy base is a requirement for angels. A true Grey dragon base glass looks like concrete in color, a true opaque grey, not semi translucent like the muddy angel base glass. You have Some good pelts there !!

Ahh !! Sweeeeet relief. Now I can "rebreathe" my own carbon dioxide easier. Maybe a newer thicker mask, or doubling up would give me more of a headrush from oxygen deprivation ?? Then the emoji would not only have a mask on but be cross eyed as well. Ah Ha, I found it 😷 They don't look to happy & they're sweating, think I'll hang out & see what else happens Hmm.........Hmmm.................

Good one !!!

Yeah Buddy !!

You're right Ron, my bad !! please excuse, the first 3 pics are sunbursts not comets !! Went to WVMCC, guess my memory is gettin as bad as my body. I should direct the apology to Rachel, which I do.

Just think all this started out as a story about fish ? now down to lemmings jumping off a cliff.

x 2, agree with Steph

Yes I have a bunch of first run, the ones I like best, that is a huge one for then. All the net bags came with one shooter but usually around 3/4. my fav is only 5/8ths but they're starting to fetch some pretty good money, especially for a good tight one "Nice (big) Mib" here's a pi of my best average joe size, $ 25.00 average + or - for a good one like this. I'm anxious to see where the giant goes myself, I put it on my watch list " Thanks for the post" I sure wish all of mine looked like this, I think I have about 36 good ones but this one by far has the busiest pattern.

Nice Steph, I've seen people use all kinds of bases, glass floats, lawn statues, I even seen pics of a car covered in a mosaic patterned layout. This is the first mosaic run for me. Great to see the creativity of others to draw inspiration from. Wow ! I googled it, take a look at what he started out with, talk about getting the creative juices flowing. AS said, "Run by Frances Green" Great post Steph, no I'll be lookin at mosaics for the next 2 hrs.

I'm lookin, to no avail yet.

Yeah !! That's what I'm sayin, everyone follows the leader like sheep to the shearer over the cliff they go, paying it no nevermind until they go over.🐑 🐑 🐑 🐑 🐑 🐑 🐑 🐑 🐑 🐑 🐑 🐑 🐑 🐑 🐑 🐑 🐏 ............................................... Hmmmmm.......... Ram in the back, over the cliff, hey wait a minute, I've read about this somewhere before ?? Do we have any "lemming" emojis ?? Let's see, rats, bats cats, coons, cows, chickens........ nope no lemmings. Gonna have to be satisfied with the sheep I guess!! Hey wait a minute "LOOK " those sheep aren't so dumb after all !! I think they're onto us, no lambchops for dinner tonight. Maybe "Ratkabobs" ???

Hang in Josh , Oop you're right , thanks I don't even know how that thing even got in there, apologies to you Rachel & every one here, I was probably in a hurry & one slipped by. This is a pic of the suspect. THE SUSPECT ?? Hmm, I would have taken your position all the way to the bank as well. The thin ribbon you see on the bottom is a shiny copper metalic ribbon (looks kinda like a copper lutz) never seen metalic like that in any imperial, but that's beside the point. I'm going to take some macros of it and resubmit. Thanks for bringing that to my attention Josh , I really do appreciate it. I hate to miss I.D. and thereby mislead anyone. I just fetched the mib, size is 19/32nds dead on. I just looked at it under a 20 x loupe, one seam "convex" and the other "concave" exactly like the first 3 mibs I posted. Forgive the crummy pix, the end shown here is the convex end, it is, "I believe" a master. I had this in a jar of imperials forever, I was emptying a jar to sell to the thrift store last year during my semi annual culling. The glint of the copper caught my eye and raised my curiosity. I fetched my loupe to look. The copper is not what convinced me of master but it was the construction, unmistakably master, I was quite taken back, same exact construction as the first 3 pix I have posted. No Imperials I've ever seen have this, specific to Master, an I.D. marker. At most Imperials will have a dimple ?? otherwise clean on both ends, no seams. Seeing this poor quality pic would for sure have me doing the same as you Josh. Taking in the fact of a completely white base pointed me immediately away from master & to Imperial. I'll PM you as soon as I get the pix posted Josh, anxious to see what you think after seeing the seams on the ends, very prevalent just like the first 3 pix. Prepare for some mutual( but friendly) arm twisting. Hopefully my friend will be here this week, I have about 300 or more new marble pix to download. I made the fix "Dink is correct" Thanks for callin me out on that one Josh.
