My favorite is the second one down!
I just love the shape and how you got the pattern centered into the shield shape.

Thanks for the kind words, everyone.  Gina - I hadn't seen the aliens in there until you mentioned it.  I just kept seeing a snow storm scene.  Snow storm on Planet X   :))

Amanda - That second one is my favorite, too.  It's my new favorite shape.  It's a bear to wire wrap, tho.  I just did one for my sister-in-law out of a dendritic rhodonite.  I cut all of those for our show the first weekend in August and not a single one of them sold.  Oh, well, more for me!   ;)

I see the alien face. It's always neat to see things in cabs. Sometime when you are cutting them you don't even notice them until you are done. Nice group of cabs!Eric.
