Don't know if it GROG' computer or the website that keeps causing GROG to have double and triple posts. Damned new-fangled technology.

Thanks for your visit!
Boris-I dunno. You seem like a reasonable man to me.
MDM- Yep, not completely buried in Transformer masks. I'm having to dig out of Power Rangers, Simpsons, and Ninja Turtles as well!
LLT- I like the way YOU jut outward!
Wendy- If I told you the secret medium, then it wouldn't be a secret! But I'll tell you anyways: detail like that can be achieved with any hard oil based clay.
Babalu- Mouth watering to catch your drool! Thanks for firing it!
Clarita- Gracias! Saludos desde SD!
GROG- Thanks!
GROG- Thanks!
GROG- Thanks!
Sophista-tiki- Thanks very much!
I've been doing some glaze experimenting with these over the past few weeks.
Got a green one...
...and a brown one.
The white flowers were stenciled on in enamel paint after firing. I didn't have the stencil until after they were fired,
or else I would have glazed them on.
In trying to come up with the simplest color schemes that would take a small
amount of time, I learned that with this particular design there is no simple color
scheme that takes a small amount of time.
Doh!
Aloha, and thanks for stopping by 
Bowie

Amazing work as usual David. Hard to pick one out of those as they both look good but i think the green wins. Makes the girls stand out more.

B'WANA!!! Always good to see you. The mugs have a nice "grubby" vintage look to them. See you at Oasis?

Wow those turned out great. I wore my hair in all those styles in high school. I use Romo #4 so I'll just have to practice more or find mini tools to use. I think mine are too thick. Thank you for sharing that. See you at Oasis, oh MDM asked that too. Cheers, Wendy

I'll have a very limited number of the surfer girl mugs. They're a real pain to glaze. I'm going to post pics of what I'll be bringing as we get closer to zero hour.
