VanTiki Mugs: Octopus Time Lapse - Other Crafts

V VanTiki Member Hawaii Joined: Nov 25, 2005 Posts: 1046	V VanTiki Posted posted on Tue, May 2, 2006 12:21 PM Was able to get some time put aside yesterday for glazing - here are the Trepanning Accidents in the process of getting their first coat of color (a black wash): Wanna get these guys in the kiln tomorrow (along with all the others). Never have enough time! Mahalo, VanTiki PS - using Velvet Underglazes for the skulls with a clear coat on top. I LOVE the velvet underglazes! Colors stay true all they way up to cone 6. Just wish they were a little cheaper. The teeth look a tad pink because they are porcelain, which for some odd reason looks pink after the bisque firing. PPS - added bonus point for anyone who can recognize my little project in the background. Not exactly tiki... :) [ Edited by: VanTiki 2006-05-02 12:23 ]
