Smokey Pipe Stems

[Bobostro61]

So I had an idea to have a pipe stem that looked like there was smoke in it.  To go from idea to reality I made the resin blank below.  
The black is really translucent so you can see the white right through it. May turn out cool, may not. Guess we'll see on my next pipe.
What do you think?

When I first looked at the photo before reading your post I thought you had a skinned frozen rabbit you had bought from the store (with the ears still on). Yeah I know, vivid imagination or really poor eyesight LOL!
Anyway, looks like it could turn out pretty neat. Must see it when your done.
