i forgot that i had my mother bring over the OG boy tits (bottom) the other day so i could do a comparison between them and the newer ones. Like, the og were made in 2hrs from scraps as a joke, but i didn't expect the difference between them and the new ones to be so drastic.
The biggest difference is the face i think. The og pair has one piece of glass to be both of the birds faces, while the other uses 2, with the features being soldered on instead of just painted on with enamel.
like the new ones are over all much cleaner even if i still have Issues with them bc i made them without using a grinder just to prove you Could do SG without one, but I'm still proud of them. Like, I'm proud of all 4 of my sons, but the younger 2 are my favorites (don't tell their brothers)
#i ran out of that darker blue glass months ago and used a very greyish purple for the new ones#and i wasnt happy with that#but now being able to Actually compare them instead of like. just having my memories of the originals#i Definitely like the new color better#when i start selling next month im going to put the iridescent side to the back tho. it doesn't look good on the 'right' side of the birds#also if your wondering why i haven't been doing stained glass recently: i dont have ac and live in central Texas. Its june#im in hell#My workspace is Way hotter because it doesn't even have a fan.#i have a litlle portable ac thing but like. i need to leave that for the cats#so my workspace just#is unbearably hot#bfsg
