More and more. So exciting to have the whole family on the block again.
It's a Primo! Primo #39. Holy heck. So there've been a couple of allll red Primos before, sure, but this one is a different glaze. Alll satiny and smoothe. You see, they stopped making the red I had been using before so I had to switch. This is the first new red I tried. Hated it at first, but it's come to grow on me. Looks like lipstick. Like a stick of lipstick. Fabulous!

Fred Fred bo Bed bananafanna.... Fred #37. Back to basic black. A thinner coat of black on this fella. You can actually make out his features, unlike some other blacks we've put out. Kinda stoney in the hand, a bit rough and tumble. Glossy red inside.

Pina Diablo numero 21. Yeah, we were coming up on #25, but have to jump back to 21 this week. #21 had to get re-fired due to a tiny touch of damage from a minor tussle in the kiln a few months back. Nothin big. Still looks great, I can't even tell what we fixed. Trust me, a o k Pina.

Coco is back to his usual, not on fire self. Our fatty fat fat fat high calorie lovely is ready to harass all the other mugs on your shelf. This one has the "hatchet cut" rim, meaning I did it. Looks like this coconut was maybe cut with a hatchet, or machete, or kitchen knife by someone that doesn't know what they were doing. Anyway, I like the rough-hewn tops alot. Katie hates them. You can visit rumdemon.com to see who's winning THAT battle (yes, the site has been updated! Whee!)

Ok, sure he's not REALLY very tiki, more sci-fi. Not even sure where he came from, but there he was one day in my brain and I had to let him out.
Xeno #11 is the first from the new crop of low fire Xeno's. This means there a bit bigger. Haven't measured them yet (yes the ebay description is wrong, oops), but I'm sure it holds at least 20 oz. I'm gonna keep getting wacky with all these mugs, because I need to keep myself entertained. They may not always look like traditional tikis, but they're Rum Demons all the same.

It's been a crazy summer so far at Chez Demon. Tons of fun was had at the NW Crawl, and I'm happy to say that Katie will let me and a couple raffle sacrifices attend the Seattle Crawl as well! Also look for a RD or two for rafflin' at the upcoming Denver happening, which I will be unable to attend. As I type, no less than four new sculpts are sitting here, staring at me, waiting to be cleaned up and molded. Meanwhile I'm probably going back to LA later this month for more work (and no play) so it should be a challenge to keep the auctions "staffed" with ready mugs. Ok, now I'm rambling...
Thanks to everyone for your support and nice things to say. Good luck, and happy bidding!
