Aloha everyone!

It's been a few weeks since my last update on my DMW mugs, but here's where I'm at! After my crazing problem on the entire first batch, I tore apart a couple of greenware DMW mugs to do glaze/vitrification tests. And after several weeks worth of testing, I got the clays absorbancy under 1% and figured out which glazes are not matching the body well. 8)

Now I'm back on track and getting a few of these out to a few customers who put commissions in a couple of months ago. Time for the final touches!

I got some new glazes in for the tentacles and ran a bunch of test glazed tentacles for the Kraken attack ones!

My massive test glaze bowl! 7 different glaze combos to try out.

Not too shabby!

And I think I have a winner with #7! First try as well, maybe I need to always to glaze tests on Mondays. :roll:
What do you all think? Which tentacle color is your favorite?

Also once I get these first few out and demonstrate the final combos I will be auctioning off this super limited edition one! Doing all the tentacles and suckers by hand was tedious, but man I'm excited to see it fired!! :D

What do you think?

Mahalo,
Corey
