VanTiki Mugs: Octopus Time Lapse - Other Crafts

V VanTiki Member Hawaii Joined: Nov 25, 2005 Posts: 1046	V VanTiki Posted posted on Wed, Feb 13, 2008 11:25 PM Aloha Folks! Welp - I am so digging the B-5 Brown clay and the stone-ish look I decided to put the extruder through its paces and put together some variations on a mug I've been kicking around in my head for quite some time. May I present the Cursed Idol Hands. WHat is the curse, you ask? Well - it mainly revolves around the fact that once you flip and fill this mug, you gotta finish drinking it before you can put it back down! I roughed one out today, and I'll try another tomorrow. Worked out some assembling/structural problems on this guy - and the proportions ended up a bit odd - It was bugging at first but now I dig it in a primitive way :) Still lots of texturing and detailing to be done and that always changes everything (So much so that I am always hesitant to post work in progress shots) - but you get the picture. The plundered stone hands of a priceless jungle idol. Mainly I wanted something that would look WAY cool and unexpected to set off a mug collection :) sorry for the photo quality - used my cellphone.
