Hi Tikibad, you came up with an idea that I've not seen before. My best friend still drives his 1970's van and loves it. I am just learning glazing myself but here's what I would do if it were my mug. I would paint the whole car in underglazes. You could do the tires black, the tiki brown etc. Underglazes do not run into each other. After you have done all the underglaze painting you coat it with clear glaze and fire it. Then put it on auction without the buy it now and see if you will end up with more money because of the extra work. It's a fun design, I think it's worth the work to bring out the detail. How about a peace sign on the door. Your first design which is also on eBay is a super good tiki. I'm going to get one of those for Dan's collection. Cheers, Wendy
