So I decided to give it a shot. I've never been much of a sculptor but it seems that suddenly I have a knack for it. I made all of these in one weekend. I am looking for feedback and tips. I should be able to fire them next week and work on glazes. I doubt i'll ever buy another mug since this is suddenly so easy...as a matter of fact i'm thinking of selling most of my collection and building exactly what i want. Granted...these are not really Tiki designs...but they are still cool i think. The Cyclops horn is a lid and I am thinking of drilling holes in for straws...or just leaving it as is and using it as a cookie jar.
I am considering seeing how they do on etsy or ebay...of If anyone has a personal interest let me know.

I also posted a couple of youtube videos of them being made
