Thanks Robb 
Jon, that stain really accentuates the texture and sets off the "tattoos" ~ perfect!

MDM, that barrel mug is epic! Love it. Henrik, I can't wait to see what you create.... I'm starting work (and will post photos) on Monday for my piece. Thanks to all for posting the progress, super talented bunch here on TC.

I started my first attempt at this project, not sure this will be the final one though. I'm no artist but I do appreciate being allowed to swap with such a talented group of REAL artists!
I'll post my humble first attempt if I can get the picture off my phone.

The 1st project didn't come out very well
So I was a little nervous when I plugged it in...
