I really had to twist my own arm to put those fangs on it; snakes fangs just plain don't do that...Your picture of the mamba is pretty darn cool. Jeez I hate snakes! If theres a real snake in the room, I'm not. Camalama - Naw brother, Let some other artist do the slip cast version of this menu mug. The one thing I found out doing that last Man of War mug was that I just get "over the top" bored with doing slip casts...after about 20 of them my mind gets more whacked out than it already is. Hell, I STILL owe a few folks MOWs yet! My favorite part of working in ceramics is hand building...gots to follow the bliss dude. [ Edited by: Babalu 2008-08-21 07:57 ]
