I am having some temperature control issues with my kiln and it under fired a little. I will fire it again this week for the clear on the skull and hopefully get it up to temp, maybe color will develop better I have 2 black pearls in the kiln today. The bigger gray one will go in the clam shell in my pond, it will hide the water tubing. The smaller green one with the funny hole in the back is my Black Pearl mug. Both will get a Mother of Pearl sheen fired to them, we'll see how that looks on black.
