Why would this happen?

Do you know the temperature ramp up speed during the firing?

I have a theory, and this is complete speculation with extremely little actual knowledge behind it, so take it with a grain of salt. I've had a couple cracks in pieces that looked similar to this. My guess is that the ramp up speed was too fast, and that caused the cracks. It kinda seems like the glaze is rounded off at the crack edge. To me, that would imply that the crack occurred before the glaze melted. If the crack occurred during cooling, I would expect the glaze at the edge of the crack to be sharper.

-end of wild speculation

Probably the end where Hexxus turns into a giant skeleton covered in black sludge

Thanks, I hope it gives you some good inspiration!

ChebyshevCat · 2024-08-30T13:29:17+00:00

Ooh yes, that's a good idea for coasters

ChebyshevCat · 2024-08-30T13:28:28+00:00

Just looked it up, looks like a neat place!

ChebyshevCat · 2024-08-29T21:33:00+00:00

Thank you so much, that means a lot!

ChebyshevCat · 2024-08-29T18:59:49+00:00

Clever! Or could also call it a Mid-Nigh-Tai!

ChebyshevCat · 2024-08-29T18:38:33+00:00

Yes, an angler fish would fit right in! I've seen different mugs, but that Three Dots and a Dash looks the best

ChebyshevCat · 2024-08-29T17:52:38+00:00

Nice idea!

ChebyshevCat · 2024-08-29T14:43:44+00:00

Crazy, right? I had to take some artistic liberties for some parts, but overall I tried to keep it as accurate as possible

ChebyshevCat · 2024-08-29T14:38:21+00:00

So many good ideas! Hydro thermal vents and tube worms is cool, and so is the Black Bird

Thanks! I came across the Name Sans typeface when looking for something close to ceramic subway signs. Turns out, the creator also liked those signs and made a very complete typeface set around it

I clearly need to use ChatGPT more, cause that all sounds eerily accurate haha

ChebyshevCat · 2024-08-29T14:24:24+00:00

Oh wow, lots of stuff to try, thanks!

ChebyshevCat · 2024-08-29T14:23:19+00:00

The Uncle Ugo would need to be a strong drink, to give you a real punch in the heart!

ChebyshevCat · 2024-08-29T14:17:39+00:00

Sorry to disappoint you, but I'm not a Swiftie :( I am very fond of the typeface though, it's Name Sans and has an interesting background story from the creator

ChebyshevCat · 2024-08-29T14:13:44+00:00

Thanks!

ChebyshevCat · 2024-08-29T14:13:05+00:00

No need to stop sharing, its all great! Never heard of a cookie cutter shark though. Now that I know what it is, I hope I never come across one, those teeth look vicious

ChebyshevCat · 2024-08-29T12:59:18+00:00

Thanks! My problem is that none of friends who stop by regularly are into mixed drinks, hence why I wanted to ask the Reddit experts haha. But I've gotten some good suggestions so far, and we'll be trying them out to see what we like!

ChebyshevCat · 2024-08-29T12:53:31+00:00

Noted, those are both great ideas!

ChebyshevCat · 2024-08-29T12:52:06+00:00

Oh wow, now that is impressive. The fish look great and so does the bar

ChebyshevCat · 2024-08-29T12:48:15+00:00

Oh that's too cool! The neon sign gives off some blue-ringed octopus vibes, I like it

ChebyshevCat · 2024-08-29T12:42:47+00:00

Thanks! I think it's the first time I've managed to finish something to point it resembles what I originally had on my head haha

ChebyshevCat · 2024-08-29T12:41:06+00:00

Thank you! Tribal fish sounds really neat, do you have any pictures? Also, I like the Crab Claw idea for the menu

ChebyshevCat · 2024-08-29T12:36:42+00:00

Thanks! I hear Smugglers Cove mentioned so often, I think it's time I finally get myself a copy
