Little Fishes

These are two rather boring little fish. I bet you can tell the right hand one was made first! I was trying to get my "fin making" moves down; the right hand fish has fins made by just stroking glass on, which gives a nice shape but a thick and blobby cross section. Fish B's fins were squeezed thin with flat tweezers, which rather spoils the shape but make them thin and more fishy looking. The bodies are sea-green Czech glass (that lovable peridot green), the fins are Moretti blue.
