They look good, good job on those! What's coming down the pipe? Any new creations?

5x5x4” with a 2.5” lip. Roy Minarai made one similar. Mine has one corner lower.

Nice, do you think the high end won't sag during bisque/firing?

You fire it upside down, so I have been told. I will put a spacer inside to keep the bottom from sagging.

Nice. I just now caught the pic with the drain holes!

That bottom shouldn't sag. I feel a spacer is more dangerous, especially on that slope. "Dangerous", lol, I guess it's not THAT serious!

Are you going to have a glaze flow down that angled face?

Tight.

It will be glazed, I’m not sure what direction or color I will go with the glaze

 

[mwar15]

Tried my hand at a crescent slab, I included a small spot for a built in accent. The glaze is copper oxide, not what I thought but it’s ok.

 

[mwar15]

This ended up 14x10.5” love the glaze!

 

[mwar15]

7.75x5.5x1.5- 5/16” thick. This is thicker than my normal ones. Experimented this some glaze and under glaze. There are a couple spots where the glaze pulled away and is just the underglaze

If someone wants this one let me know. Not sure the price as this will be my first one I have sold.

What is your application method?
On bisque?

That lipped one is fresh!

The recent one was poured, the large one before that was sprayed

The colors on the lipped one is very nice.

This is my second attempt at a crescent/slab. I think I really nailed the glaze combination it has a lot of light green and brown kind of sand color. At least for me it looks somewhat organic. It did slump a little bit in the glaze firing

Very cool and organic looking.

 

[mwar15]

I really like this glaze it’s got a lot of character. The lip did sag a little bit with the second firing but it’s not too bad.

 

[mwar15]

Back at it. 9x13x3. I switch to a different clay body as a little bit more grog and it’s a little bit stiffer. It allows me to work it faster without letting them dry as much.

Looking good!
