I was wondering how much space you'd created behind the mouth and skull within to hold the liquid... Thanks for the acknowledgment on the concept - it is slightly bittersweet to see the first "Skulleater" mug out there isn't of my creation (it is one of my designs that I am definitely wanting to take into ceramic) but I enjoy your stuff too much (and what you've done with the idea) for it to worry me at all. A little credit goes a long way when you've been inspired by others' work and I appreciate that. This is a nice contrast to recent situation where one of my works was pretty much copied outright but the artist involved really made no effort to add their own twist on the design, nor to acknowledge their use of my concept (nothing whatsoever to do with tiki in this case). Fingers crossed for the drying!
