@hearts4bingoo I'm glad you liked them.. They really do come out well for being so simple to make. I was excited to use them to make terrain because I had never seen anyone else ever do them like that for crystal terrain. There are endless possibilities and variations to the setting you want to create with them. I will do some more vids as soon as I can. Our home burned down with the brush fires here in Texas. Will be back as soon as I can

Well done, great looking job.

@hollandianova Thanks so much. I was pretty proud of how those came out.. Unfortunately we have had a major catastrohy in the last two weeks. Brushfires here in Texas on Labor Day took our home. We lost everything we ever owned and my wife and kids were lucky to escape. Just like everything else I'm having to replace, I'll have to eventually make some more of these.

Thanks for your comment. It's greatly appreciated.

Sorry to hear about the fire, coming from Sydney (Aust) I am well aware of the danger of bush fires. Glad to hear you are all okay.

Regards,

Craig.

@epicfantasy Thanks Will. I figured you'd appreciate it given all the different things you're into.. LOL

[epicfantasy]

Amazing! extraordinarily creative idea.

@Wahliby Hiya Tim! GLAD you liked them. They really are simple and easy to make and the results are awesome.. As for the final product? The possibilities are endless.

Getting to your questions. As for any kind of ratio for the gel food color. There really wasn't one. I just knew that I wanted the Blue to show up well so I put a bunch in. Probably half the bottle.LOL Some colors do need more BUT the real secret to most of the color is the color of the pipe cleaners. Some are better w/o the gel

[Wahliby]

Love your project. The final products are beautiful. I really enjoy how you've used inexpensive items and science to make terrain. I do have a question. Is there a ratio you would suggest for color gel : water? What about liquid food coloring? Do any colors need more dye than the other? I imagine yellow needs more dye to make it yellow, otherwise it's a faded yellow color. Job well done.
