Holy CocoaPuffs!
That Babalu studio brings out the best in everybody, it's freakin' supernatural, man:
I love the hair.
The mug that ate the mouse.
"Eye See".
And Buzzy - I've got some gold glaze for the chains, it's like 20 bucks a 1/4 oz. but you can have it for only 60 bucks for 1/64th an oz.

rick, you never cease to amaze me. i meet you in person and you seem so calm and soft spoken. then you rock out with this.
i watched you rub a simple stick (what i thought) at oasis and was impressed. this is beyond anything i'd think a person had skill to accomplish. thanks. it's just nice to at least see it. i like you so much i hope we can hang out and make stuff like you do with your neighbors. i know i live far away, but, dude, you need a bob ross show.

The mugs are top notch!! The rat/fang is perfect.
This weekend I kept hearing a little voice in my head that was telling me to get muddy (its actually been there since getting back from Oasis). So I broke out the dried clay, smashed it up and currently have it soaking to reconstitute. More to come soon.

Finished the little guy off.
I figured, everybody is always so worried about breaking their mugs, why not just make one that comes pre-crunched?
"Get Smashed".
Hey Babs - do I dry this out slow in a bag or just let it sit on a shelf?

Wow, You guys are great! This is some really terrific feed back  ...it just makes one want to go out in the shop and do more and more 
Just a quickie post tonight...
Cam - Your mug puts the Funk into Funky brother! Bring that smashed guy back and let him dry out here...wrap it up.
Aloha - Wished you were here! You might want to go out and buy another bag of clay...that old reclaimed clay is not the best to work with. Clay is pretty cheap. I would LOVE to see you get your hands muddy...GO ALOHA!
Well, I fooled around a little in the shop after work tonight....I have these old back yard party lights that I am guessing are from the late 50's early 60's which I dearly love, and since I've had them, I've thought that the 3 sided shape with round top would make a great mug. So I took one of the 12 shades I have, and reluctantly, cut one of them up and made a press mold out it. After releasing the roughed in clay shape from the mold...I cleaned the pressed form up some (not done with that yet) and then I took one of the diamond shapes and played around with putting a face on it. I'm sure I will do a few of these new mugs with all faces of some kind, but I'm really liking the diamonds just plain on this "Party Light" mug...Hell, I even really like the triadic color way (red, yellow, blue) of the plastic shade. It would be fun to see what LLT could do with one of these (hint).

Babs - do just one face on each side; alternate top, bottom, & middle. That way each face can be a different primary color. Keep it primary, man.
Hey, I wanna do another mug! "Get Smashed" was fun - but I wanna do one that goes WAY OUT THERE in KooKooLand.
