Hi MadDog, winding down? I think I just got to the top of the hill. I started the three layers of glaze on the first 19 yesterday. I'm doing it all by hand no spray gun this time. By tonight I will be able to pre-heat and fire the first load. I'm catching up on all my VHS taped shows.

Hey Matt, I hope you can make it to the party at FI, Michael T. says it will be special.

While working on the Tiki Crate I have sanded and bisqued my Missionary Downfall hula girl. Gecko is making the version with the bowl I couldn't lift the mold so I sent it back to him. We had a slow down when it was discovered I left out the I in Missionary. I used the I stamp once and set it aside and forgot to use it again. He'll fix it. Wendy

I kept forgetting how soft the cast clay is. I kept breaking them, this is my trash can.

Bisque fire with the last of the Tiki Crates.

Close up.

Out of the kiln.

Here are a couple photos of my original sculpt in clay and painted with acrylic paint.
It will be fun to see Gecko's version and mine once I start to paint these.



This girl caused a whole bunch of trouble with those missionary's, I hope there downfall wasn't too painful!
