So, now I've found time (it's a lie, I didn't, but I still managed to finish it) to complete my Hawaii Gods quartet... plus skull shot mug. Now they are ready. They came out well, all of them, much better than Ku and Kane... Why? Because of glaze... This time it just happened to be suitable glaze (same manufacturer, same seller, same everything, just different color)... Here they are...

Kane is here...

This is Kanaloa (although it looks like Tangaroa, my bad, but that's how it is now)...

And one of my favorite... Skull Shot mug...

About Kumuhonua with Hibiscus mug... I said that I'm gonna do it again after the first version was totally ruined after three firings... And I did... But it came out also bad... Lines are not as sharp as necessary and still there ain't same glossy surface as it was on the very first firing... It's again matt... I have no idea how to achieve the glossy glaze there... But if I will have time for it, I want to make it again one day... I really should... again till it WILL come out perfect from bottom to top and all around, outside and inside... and will be the most beautiful tiki in the world in it's own level...
