Improving the marbles....



I bought a couple of old school marbles in today and had a really good look at how the coloured swirl is shaped inside the clear glass ball.

I then went on to create a sphere and collapse it in a similar way so that it forms kind of a star shape from above.

I then drew a Spline Arc and rotated it round with the Lathe Tool to effectively give a hollow ball. The ball has a similar material to the drinking glass I created earlier.

Moving the swirl inside the ball and grouping it finsished it off.

Dead chuffed with how they've turned out :o)
