Mahalo Flamingo, I'm in the process of casting and I'm learning a lot... Here is my first pass at the 1st Mauna Loa mug... It's a interesting lesson learned here about shrinkage... The clay I'm using shrinks about 10% plus a little more going to bisque. It seems it will be a shot glass when I'm finished.. I may re-sculpt this a little bigger in oil clay, I kinda liked the size closer to the original.. The smaller one is still wet and will shrink more, the larger one is the bisque of the original (about 10% smaller than the original sculpt :D)...
