"Ogre with Reichenbach Magic dots and eyestalks. Its underside is still mostly green. The color developed as I kept reheating the body as I added the dots and eyes. Work, reheat, work, reheat."
– Chris Haussler
"Ogre is an odd one. I get blues and purples to come out with lots of heat over time. I have gotten a sort of lavender pink on some cacti with a little less heat. I like the variety of colors I can get."

A comparison of various CiM etched greens.

"Luna 2.1 scrolls and Boreas dots, as before. You can see slight separation lines around the edges of the scrolls, and the Boreas dots are again very shiny and have sharp brown rings around them. Around the beadholes has also tended to go brown. Quite interesting for organic beads." Read more at Heather's blog.

"On the mandrel with three Ogre beads, the one nearest the end went into the kiln a light grey-blue, which is the colour this looks when not struck at all – it went green in the kiln." Read more at Heather's blog.

"The colour changing effects of Ogre are unpredictable but also add a lot of interest."
– Jolene Wolfe
"Ogre strikes to a variety of shades from greyish blue to green to brown and is also quite reactive as you can clearly see in the bead decorated with Reichenbach Multi Color Dark ferns. There is a delicate halo surrounding the outline of the fern details." Read more at Kitzbitz Art Glass' blog.

"Ogre is a truly unique color. When fine silver is added [as on the base bead shown here], the glass blooms a similar color to Canyon de Chelly and reveals golden caramel hues with an accent of green undertones." Read more at Heather's blog.
