Year of the Dragons
@hairyman @Mossy and anyone else interested, here are the pics of the glaze run I did. I wanted to get stuff done for Christmas, so of course I messed some stuff up. Here are some highlights tho and I learned a lot from the stuff I messed up.
I was worried the glaze would hide details, so I made up some brushable glaze but should have done more coats. I do love most of it, and I may refire it with more glaze. Or just leave it alone (smart choice) :smoking:

And this one, turned out the best of the lot but had some hairline cracks. I know why, and should not have the issue again (you can see one right in the center of the head).

I made a box for a friends daughter, and that was a complete mess. I'm almost done making it again with the required "don't do that's" added. But damn I love the waterfall of the knob (glaze too thick, remedying that too) and the fireworks looking parts. I will do that again!!

fantastic ,,,,,,waterfall effect,,i been playing with epoxy resin colors to get similar effects on infills in wood, you got a special oven for glazes?
i must have had an excited head rush last night, i woke up with pages of dragon lines from old threads,,and a dragon hatchery graphic
your right after the head rush i need to open and explore the current box before getting ahead of myself :smoking:
