Shrinkage. Kirby's original sculpt on the left using Monster Clay. Greenware on the right is the poured mug. It will shrink a tad bit more when it's fired. This is why you have to sculpt the original larger.

We have around 94 poured so far. Going to do an edition of 125. Going to pour 160 to account for breakage, glaze issues, APs testing glaze colors, and whatever else might go wrong. Any extras will be a small limited edition in a different color, and maybe some one-ofs.

Pouring mugs, cleaning mugs, and tomorrow a little more construction on the studio space. Got a pump yesterday for pouring slip. Lots of work. Need to start doing some AP's to test some colors to figure out the final colors for these guys.
