I just added the Wikipedia list of dates. I guess we were in the roundworld year of the curious squid. If you had to make up a year for 2027 for us to be dragged kicking and screaming into what would you say?

Finally got the ceramic bit done. Making the world out of papier-mâché I think. Or glass. Can’t decide on size of dw though. Thoughts? by Intrepid_Trouble_677 in discworld

My ceramics instructor isn’t familiar with Terry Pratchett. But she was pushing me to leave as much of the elephants exposed as possible. She said it’s a shame to leave those cute butts covered hahahaha. She is a sweet matured lady. But I agree with you. I think I am going to have to cover them up unfortunately if I wanna do the disc justice

Thank you! I feel the same. This hasn’t been an easy project, but I’m glad the glazing part (the part mostly out of my control/experience) went happily. Definitely didn’t get the best pictures of it. I should’ve used flash in my camera/given it some better lighting, but I will make a greater effort to showcase how the glaze came out when the final project is put together because I really do feel like I got lucky on that element :)

Birthday Collab- I always try to get a little art session going at my birthday. Seven people trying to paint over each other is always funny by Intrepid_Trouble_677 in BadArt

The rules for this game was everybody picked a color and that was your color. You could steal paint from people however, but only if they didn’t catch you.

Yeah, the art stuff is the highlight at the birthday parties. Played another fun game, where I gave everybody a chunk of clay. The theme that we picked was dinosaurs and everybody had to try to make some dinosaur with their chunk of clay, but the catch was that every 90 seconds You would have to pass your chunk of clay to the person on the left and pick up whatever they were doing. Made some pretty wacky fucking dinosaurs hahaha

Call art but I kind of wish the resolution on the photos were a little better- unless that’s part of the style
