They all look really good. What is the copper color?

My purple & blue candy both stick color very fast and will become too dark pretty easily. Can be tough to get an even thin coat with out getting too heavy handed with the brush. You can also use a thin layer of candy color over top of a solid pearl.... looks really cool as well. Glad i could inspire....

Played with the mica powder a few days ago and think I messed up putting a bit of colored powder into it. but they didn't come out too bad. Have to mix just the white pearl, clear and mica - then use my transparent colors over them.

Fatman - Not a mistake to add mica to colors.......... i have been doing it for a little while now. Yellow, chart, and orange are my favorite to add it to. It turns any color into a semi-metallic version of the color. Your purple looks killer in my book.

I have been playing with the mica also....in the pics I used a larger glitter version from JoAnn fabric dumped into my fluid bed. The glitter did not settle all to the bottom. I have noticed if I dip horizontal I get a better spread of glitter. The Rosey 200 Glass clear coat I think also help because it was so light that my fluid bed was really rock'n.
