Did the black wipe off. A couple photos follow. I was impressed with how little the underglaze lightened during the first glaze firing. Usually it gets very light and won't darken up until you put a clear coat on it. In this case, however, I used a Mayco velvet underglaze and the colors stayed bright after firing. The photos posted are after the black wipe off...which darkened it up allot. I know how I would finish out the mug...but I'm going to let skip choose the finishing touches. Skip-sending you a pm very soon
