Chippy guess what now I'm going to make a Deputy Sheriff - Detective mug for our best friend who has had a rough time health wise. He just sent me his badge. His number (he retired) was 999 and when asked to show it by criminals he flipped it around to read 666. He said they would get really quiet.

hang10tiki I hope so, could be that without a white face no one recognizes Bob, ya think?

littlegiles dark red turning to green is always a surprise for me. I've started to learn what you should and should not use on a mug with detail or add-ons.

Progress on the last of the Bob's

I wanted Mrs. Tiki Bob to be cute so I changed her eyes, nose and mouth.

After painting her completely I scrapped off the glaze on her eyes and mouth.

I then added under-glaze to these areas.

Her best side.

Clam-Up Bob was just a wild fun mug to make.

He was inspired by a shell I bought in the 1960's in San Francisco.

I also added seaweed

and a seahorse.

He's got clams!

Ukulele Bob had lots of hidden spots so I ran glaze down behind the Ukulele on purpose.

After he was all painted I scrapped off glaze on the instrument so I could add a different color.

I couple of flowers and he's all done.

I put them out back to dry.

I hope you are all off playing. Dan and I celebrate our 35th wedding anniversary today. He is taking me to a surprise lunch to celebrate. I have a few tikis for him so it will be a fun day.

Cheers, Wendy
