Title: Personal Saber Case
Post by: titan77 on March 05, 2015, 07:41:45 PM
In my pottery class, we were working with hard and soft slab techniques for our two most recently finished pots. I decided I would make a hard slab saber case that was roughly 13"x3"x3". I left the long sides smooth, with the top side of the lid corrugated and the Sith empire emblem etched in the short sides. It should be fired this week, I will post a picture of it post bisque firing, glazed but pre glaze fired, and finally the absolute finished product. It survived critique day with nothing but positive reviews.

Fresh out of the kiln from the bisque fire, going to glaze somewhat soon, more to come.

That is beautiful!!! Good job man. I really miss working with clay. It's been years since I did pottery, I miss it. Can't wait to see the glaze on this

Thanks, I believe it is getting thrown in the gas kiln tomorrow, so I should have glazed pictures on thursday. I love working with clay, and I love that I get to use it to fill an art minor requirement while in school. I wish I had my own studio.

little pre-glaze firing look. thinking of making a second for the staff I eventually, hopefully this summer, will assemble.

Finally here they are, I can get other looks if you want. I have not had a laptop since the case got fired, hence the delay

Neat!

I'm personally partial to wood but hey, nice job nonetheless. Anything made from scratch with hands is definitely worth more.
