My skull glaze did not turn out exactly how I envisioned. I thought it would "break" (thin on the high areas) more, especially over the white teeth and cowrie shell eyes. I still like the effect, like a moss-covered artifact. And now there is plenty of contrast between the skull and the bamboo pole. The bat skull on the lid was too stark white so I aged it a little with some tan glaze and put it back in the kiln today. I will get some "glamor shots" of the finished piece sometime in the next few days. Also put some assorted teeth and claws in the kiln today, these will hang with the Pouakai talon.
