Yeah I didn’t expect the glaze to do what it did on the left but it’s a cool look.

A mug with an angler fish and a squid on it, there is a darker bit at the bottom that looks like a shadow but kind of isn’t. The mug is sitting on neon grave and hermit crab shells

The tests from the gradient attempts with sprayed on underglaze. The one on the left I think is rad. The color difference is purely from the black underglaze spray in from the bottom. The one on the right had green underglaze. Not super jazzed with the right one. Testing continues!

When someone says β€žScientists do not want you to knowβ€œ you can dismiss everything from there on. Scientists want you to know. They are desperate that you know. They can’t shut up about what they found out and want you to know.

Also idk if you have access to one but if you ever want to do a mask for the logo, cutting masking tape with a vinyl cutter like a cricut or silhouette is a great option. That’s how I do the circles around mine on opaque glazes or dark bodies.

Thanks! I really wanted to do an aquarium but I ran out of time for my friends zine submission dead line. And the hermit crab that lives in our aquarium told me not to disturb her home.
I like the bag version a lot though!

That’s what I figured I definitely did the same with my glazes until I knew better how they would behave

Get these weird fish from a pet store I can’t seem to get back to? I keep going to the intersection that it was at, but I just hear a sinister laugh and wake up at home on the couch?

Hey it looks great! The glaze pulls it together nicely. Any particular reason you didn’t glaze over the logo? It’s look lovely pooled in.

A view looking through the space between the frog and tote on a Stanley no. 4 handplane. Shavings from a spruce guitar brace can be seen in the opening.

I had to use my full size router last night and honestly that’s one tool I don’t miss not using much. My porter cable probably needs some tlc and that would make it a bit quieter. But I had a much better time hand planing spruce braces before that.

A ceramic mug held by a hand. The mug has bas reliefs of Luna moths, glazed in an emerald crackle color. The deep green glaze flows from high spots and pools in low to create additional depth and detail.

Wow routing a sound hole like this was way chiller than how I normally bevel the interior. Which is to forget to do it until the box is closed and then do it by hand with a knife from the outside. Flush trimmed to the red printed template then chamfered with a different bit .
