Piddersthecat It's been 114 degrees here in the summer. We just stay indoors. HopeChest it's funny but the two lamps I made were because we forgot them in the molds for too long. They are very thick walled and heavy. I'm so happy everyone likes the design. The AP's are usually how I pick the colors but this time I knew the colors and then made the AP's because some people like to have one that is different. hang10tiki stole it from a post on-line. I don't know how to photoshop. hang10tiki ah look at that cute face. Did you find a repairman? lunavideogames (=: hang10tiki oh good. From the looks of that photo you should have stayed in with the AC. ============================ It's been time to glaze for awhile now. I've been working every day. These photos were taken 5/23/17 to 6/3/17. You've seen the process before But I'll do an abbreviation of the process for those logging on for the first time. The best thing of starting with these is that I know all the glazes that they require so I can get them fast. This is the messy part where I pour it in and out to make the water. I clean up the top of the breasts. A day later I do the bottoms of the mugs and let them dry. Then the next day I do the sides including the three dents. I did most of the hair black. If I stack my turn wheels I can keep my back straight. I had orders for two redheads and one blond. All done and left to dry. Then it was time to do the skin. The Duncan CN glaze needs four layers to prevent the skin from looking blotchy. I decided that the mostly the same glazes would be used on the two mermaids so I brought them out to work on. One is for Robyn and one is for HB Tiki. It's fun to pick the colors for the tails. As you can now tell, Robyn is the mermaid. A pair of these on each girl. Flowers in the hair. 2 coats of white under-glaze on the rim. Three coats of Clear Brilliance over the white. I work in full kilns so these are waiting for more to be done to join them in firing. So much to do which is so much fun. Wendy |
