dartharnie after a long talk with the Mummy he said it was OK to do major changes to that satisfied expression. Now he no longer looks happy to be the Mummy.

Hale Tiki in the end I destroyed the gauze pressings with a lot more carving.

hang10tiki cute!

Babalu I've missed you. I'll have to check to see if you posted photos of the Bunny Stack glazed. I've never done anything that huge. You are so brave.

Professor G we like being a happy place. Guess what 3rd times is going to be the charm. I'm trying again.

Progress Report Wish List 3 and the Severed Heads

This is one of Notch's severed heads. As an artist proof he did an extra good job of glazing it. I will work to make all of them in the run as good as this one.

Years ago I sculpted a bowl but I never got around to making a mold. It is shown in this photo. It is sculpted with Romo Clay #3. A Very hard clay. I bought a wax pot and I melt the clay in it and then spread it for sculpting.

19TikiChef62's wish is for a cannibal or witches pot with 3 of the topless Missionary Downfall women with tattoos. So now I've started to add clay to form a pot in the shape he desires.

Spreading the hot clay.

When you make a mold you need an opening in which to pore the slip. I just make that a part of the sculpt. So first I melted the bottom.

Then I stuck it on the pot.

I haven't fine tuned the shape yet and there is a pot lip yet to add but I have a good start.

For Professor G I am trying a third time to make the War God statue in white with blue specks. He also wanted it to have a rocky base which I'm starting here for the first time. I figured out the size.

Next I've built the platform that the WG sits on. Next I'll form the rocks and surround the WG.

I'm also working on the Mummy's wrinkles. I'll have photos tomorrow morning.

Cheers, Wendy
