It has taken four kiln loads to fire glaze onto all of the Wish List projects. Some items had to be glazed four times to make them come out just right.

Here is what happened with the first load.

Top shelf of the kiln.

The first out is Volcano Bob for Mondo-by-the-bay. This rocky black glaze with red lava always has to be glazed twice. The red as it cools contracts and pulls some black up and off the ceramic. It's an easy fix.

Tiki Hula glazed this Zombie Torch mug and the glaze came out too thin. It will need another coat.

Hello Kitty for WaikikianMoeKele had no problems.

THe King's Goblet for Mondo-by-the-bay had no problems and my new lava technique worked out, I'm so happy.

Suffering Bastard Bob (idea by MP who allowed me to make a few) for ebtiki has no problems.

MaukaHale your Tapa Bob is also finished.

Mondo-by-the-bay your Tapa Bob is done. Up close it looks even better.
