NICE!! Are they polyester?
WARNING, don't blend PC colors, it becomes seriously addicting

The wife likes the Christmas colors
Highly festive.

I didn't see much difference between Smoke's yellow/green and JD green so I added a bit of traffic white and got this.
A couple more blends. A fun way to kill some time.
I like the stone look others have created so I gave it a try. Smoke's black and traffic white and signal blue/ white.
I agree and love the "stone" look.
I use Hammered White to get that effect. Just mix with a good coating solid color pinch at a time till ya get what ya like for a color.
Your right its quite enjoyable!!
Another easy one is simply collect the "siftings" from all batches the conglomeration can make for some interesting colors!!

Too hot! Did you check your oven with a thermometer? I use a digital thermometer with a thermocouple in a bullet. You can tell the temp of your oven and more important the temp of your bullets. The thing will cost you about $20.00 and you can use it for other things. Drill a hole in a coated bullet and insert thermocouple,squeeze bullet down on thermocouple. Lay thermocouple on tray with bullets baking. Buy a few extra thermocouples you can monitor your temp when preheating your molds. If you don't have a p.i.d. on your casting pot a lot of them come with a probe that you can monitor your alloy temp. Preheat bullets before coating,lay the end of the thermocouple in with bullets so you don't get them to hot.
Boolits !!!!! Does that mean what I think it do? It do!
first try checked temp with house oven thermo dead on at 450 baked them there for 30 min bent on was sitting on foil wrenkle bent over, the few that fell down devloped flat spot moved the lead so second attemp at 400 was beter but not smooth
