Description

This is how it looked yesterday after I finally gathered up the courage to glaze it.

No, it's not fired yet. I don't expect it to be until sometime next week.

Anyway, the bottom glaze is John's Shino. The black detailing is, shock, metallic black.

Which, unfortunately, I'm very afraid will turn blue. On top of the brown, that will look positively awful. D:

But yeah, we don't know how metallic black will look on top of John's Shino, so I'm the guinea pig. The effect I'm attempting to go for is the look of ... well, you know how dinosaur skulls in museums are like that laquered brown and black? That's what I want. xD

Note all the teeth that I've managed to break already. BLEGH. I was glazing the top jaw in a basin (because I had to pour the glaze over the entire thing) and it slipped. the two front teeth on the left flew right off. The big fang, in two pieces, no less. D:

I've only lost ONE of the bottom jaw teeth, fortunately. Everything else has been on the top.

Sorry the pic was taken on the shelf. I was too lazy to pull it out and put it on a table. :/
