hang10tiki I think those were Dan's words too. It is HUGE!

Philot I will have to ask Owen to share photos when it's all lit up.

============================

More steps on Owne Wrights HUGE Tiki Bob bowl.

He wanted the hula girl to be wearing a grass skirt. I have to fill in the all the indentations of the legs etc. to prevent air pockets that will cause it to explode in the kiln.

I decided to let the skirt part to make her sexier.

I added a belt.

To let air escape she has a hole on the bottom. Once in the bowl there must be an opening in the bowl. I did smooth out all these joints.

I I cut out a piece and when she we put into the bowl the two holes were matched up....I hope.

Now in place more clay is added to seal her to the bowl.

Trying to sculpt the girls skirt between these soft Bob's wasn't easy.

I got it done and now she'll rest overnight before I begin more detail work.

Cheers, Wendy
