Thanks Babalu!! He now has a epoxy skin all over, so I won't bake him at all (I never do, I let the water based clay dry very well, and then I finish it with varnish spray.To take a silicon mold of it, to fill with the paraffin...).
Yes he is hollow, I'm going to make him as Hoku Ili a candle holder, we'll see how the transparency works..
This is how he was when he was just water based clay

I think the problem was that I've made him to thin, I've didn't had that problem with the others I've made before. Thanks a lot for the help offer I really appreciate it!! Slowly the mug idea is getting into me, so I take your word on it...Thanks again!!

Thanks very much Ben!! I know after your tools issue you are stronger than ever!! Can't wait to see your new stuff!

LLT Thanks so much my friend :D !! yes I'm going to need reinforcement, I think, to help Hoku Ili, the tiki coopers are bad asses!

...But he is not ready yet, today he suddenly has grown a big quiff!!
