Based on the Los Furias Tiki illustrations and sculpted by the ludicrously talented Bai Tiki, the mug will debut in August 2011 at the Puttiki 3D event in a glaze limited to 30 pieces only. There will then be a run of three glazes (limited to 100 pieces each) based on the colours of the Doug trilogy: Blue Christmas, Soylent Green and Redrum. Please bear in mind that the attached images are of work in progress but I will post updated images here as the mug evolves or you can follow it's progress on the Los Furias Tiki fan page on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Los-Furias-Tiki/175265578839?ref=sgm

LFT Los Furias Tiki Member South East Joined: May 31, 2008 Posts: 85	LFT Los Furias Tiki Posted posted on Wed, Nov 3, 2010 3:10 PM A quick Doug update: The sculpt is complete and ready to go, so here's a last look at the amazing work of Bai Tiki before it all goes a bit quiet as some experimenting with glazes takes place... I'm going to start putting a mailing list together to keep anyone who's interested in snagging a Doug up to date with how it's going and any pre-order options. If you're interested then drop me a line at: [email protected] Thank you for all your positive feedback here and on Facebook and I'm looking forward to getting some Doug's out into the world!

As soon as I have a price and date for the launch then I will let everyone know and start pre-orders.

I'm sorting out an HTML mailing list to ensure that you will get nice, clear images of the glazes and this is taking a while for me to put together, so don't feel ignored if you don't hear anything for a while... Of course, I'll be sure to post images in this thread too.

The sculpt is all done and ready to make an army of Doug's... I'll get some pictures up of the glazes and general fun as we go. There will also be some news on the second Los Furias Tiki mug soon... It's a beaut!

LFT Los Furias Tiki Member South East Joined: May 31, 2008 Posts: 85	LFT Los Furias Tiki Posted posted on Wed, Nov 17, 2010 4:21 AM There is a mailing list which will have details of pre-orders once the glazes are ready and everyone has had a chance to look at the finished mug... Just drop me a line on: [email protected] Also, the amazing Bai Tiki (who did the incredible sculpt for Doug) has just launched her web page: http://bybai.jimdo.com/ It's well worth a visit (as long as you don't have your credit card in your hand or you may find it curiously maxed out by the time you've finished looking).

LFT Los Furias Tiki Member South East Joined: May 31, 2008 Posts: 85	LFT Los Furias Tiki Posted posted on Thu, Nov 25, 2010 3:39 AM The Bai Tiki sculpt has arrived safely from Paris and is ready to go off and become some glorious mugs! This is just a quick snapshot to give everyone an idea of scale because, as you can see, Doug is a BEAST of a vessel: The final mugs will be around 2 to 3 inches smaller but that still leaves him at an impressive size (and able to hold a good 140z of booze)! Tho everyone who has emailed for the mailing list, you will be recieving info very shortly on due dates and pricing... You haven't been forgotten, I promise! More news soon. [email protected]
LFT Los Furias Tiki Member South East Joined: May 31, 2008 Posts: 85	LFT Los Furias Tiki Posted posted on Thu, Dec 9, 2010 8:03 AM Right, the Doug Sculpt has left the building and begun his journey to become Doug Mugs... I have a rough delivery date of early April for the first 30, so all you patient Mailing Listers can expect some news shortly after Christmas.
