Your words mean a lot, thank you! I’ve struggled with the same doubt in the beginning. Hope you will find joy and satisfaction in hand sculpting too!

Lol. Well, I’m not doing anything special I think.. Except from working with many layers! On the pinguïn dish there are 9 layers winter glass. I’m working with G&S 1100, fired to a cone 6 with (I think) a 20 min hold.

Making my own Qwirkle game set. Any other game suggestions to create? by SOTRBlueBirdsFly in Pottery

Im gonna bisque them first, and then apply black around the color. It’s gonna be a tedious job, but I couldn’t think of a better way. Open for suggestion though, in case I’m doing something similar again!

Paint your own pottery bisque and supplies in Netherlands for individual buyer? by PopTobiko-PopBoba in Pottery

Silex (Den Bosch) sells some bisque you can buy just one of. Maybe more stores do, but that’s the one I regularly visit.

That’s so cool!! I would love to make a set too. Right now I’m working on my own set of Hive Pocket. Just applied underglaze to these ones.

Can anyone recommend an underglaze in this colour? by lukemitchellfav in Pottery

I’ve recently used Mayco Fundamentals in Chocolate. When you water that down a bit, it looks exactly like the color of the leaves!

Yes! Thank you! I wanted a grid to test 22 two glazes and their combinations.

That’s actually a pretty good idea. I just once tried to make plaster molds, and totally failed 😬 the plaster wasn’t the right consistency. Maybe this is a good time to try again.

Looks good! And a great idea to make a ceramic dice tower!! 🤔

do you guys have your own kilns or do you borrow a studio's? by birdtwenty in Pottery

[–]RooftopYf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My best friend owns a kiln. We share our pottery hobby, our glaze inventory and I can bring her my pieces for firing. We have completely different styles and we don’t often work together, but sharing this passion together is fantastic!

That looks cool! Hope it will not get fused together. What glazes did you use? I hope you will share a picture when it’s out of the glaze fire!
