A few projects I've been working on.
My 3D printed pendants from the Art Swap. I passed them on to TikiAno at Tiki Oasis. I see a set of Boar Tusks, A Hornbill Skull, a Marquesan U'u War Club, a Phineas Foggcutter head, a Jade Tile in a Bamboo Frame, and a Hawaiian Fishhook.

What do you make with a 3D printer and stl files for a skull, a set of boar tusks, a cowrie shell, and a cylinder? You slice, resize, re-arrange and make an Asmat Ndakus/Trophy Skull to float on your cocktail LOL

Babalu had a Clay Jam at his studio a few weeks ago, I made a diving helmet mug.

Sculpted the helmet from lowfire clay

Underglazed it with a base coat of tan and bisque fired it.

More underglaze in several colors of blue, green, and brown. Then a clear glaze and fired again

Wanted to pour the open window in the front with epoxy resin. After some experimentation, I covered the inside of the hole with Saran Wrap, packed the mug with sand and put a tape top on it, then poured the epoxy

My window wasn't very smooth on the inside so the optics are not too clear but plenty clear enough for an LED ice cube in the drink to shine through.
