Babalu - Mahalo! I do love my workspace - it was 90% of what we liked about the house!

Hewey - thanks, man - my fingers are triple crossed every time I tun on the kiln nowadays!

Kahu - I hope you score a mug too! I'll be rooting for you.

pdrake - I take it you like the monkey god! :)

Here is the finished sculpt - really happy with this one. The clay has a lot of sand in it - so the surface is rather rough (in a good way)! Tried something new on this one (once again- inspired by Indiana Jones - specifically that scull that Indy drinks the mind control elixir out of in Temple Of Doom). I liked the "mouthpiece" that came out of the skull's mouth - and I added something like that on the back rim of this mug. It has a little groove on the inside to aid the potent rums on their migration to your mouth. Hope it works! At least it looks cool. Here go the photos:

A bit overcast this afternoon so the photos are a tad dark - sorry!

Mahalo for peeking. I'm off to Skull Eater #2 (hopefully crack free this time around)
