The Duk Duk and the PNG shield are looking Good! Reminds me of the time I was trapped on the East Sepik River back in 1932.

Here's my latest addition "Devil Tiki"..hope to have enough of these to sell tomorrow. It's a collaboration between myself, Doug and Mieko. I was trying for something a little more feminine for the "lady folk". I'm going to play with different colors and also make rings and earrings.

Took longer to glaze things than GROG expected, but it's in the cooker now. GROG was in hurry to get things done quickly so GROG could fire the pieces, and GROG hope GROG didn't screw up some of the glazing on the salt and pepper shakers.

ONLY $20 I'll have my latest creation, a Coco Joe's/ A HIP inspiration. A HIP tiki got me obsessed with tikis when I was 17 and I've always wanted to make my own version. So, since resin is not so eco, I had to do them in ceramic. They are about the same weight, maybe a little more than a resin tiki. I'll have a few different colors for the Tonga Hut!
I've also experimented with some lava effects, we'll see how they turn out tomorrow when I open the kiln!!!
Pendants look awesome Kirby, and happychi! Doug, the new artwork looks great!

The kiln is done firing and is now cooling down. GROG open it about 10am and hopefully everything survived the glaze fire, and we'll have some more GROG ceramics at the Tonga Hut.
