hang10tiki I hope I can always make it fun. I'm having a blast.
Hale Tiki, cool I'll keep that in mind.

Progress Report Wish List #3 and etc.

I've started glazing for the Don the Beachcomber Sale on December 2nd. However if any of you who read my thread see something you want just let me know.

I start by spraying with water. This starts "capillary" action that makes the glaze stick better.

I decided to do a couple of colors at a time and then swap out the colors. NO more tables so full of glaze that there's no room for the ceramics.

I did 3 layers on the bottoms and then I turned them over and did the insides.

After working from morning until late at night I had this many done.

During my glazing breaks I worked some clay.

Vampiress RN wanted Bob to look like a flamingo like the one on the back of her mug.

I made a beak. It didn't look right so before bed I printed a photo. Wow I need to work on this today.

hang10tikis Suffering Bob has now been improved. I've added so much clay that my fingers are crossed that it will not have more than one crack (see last photo)!

No more skinny legs.
