WHY DESTROY YOURSELF? WHY DIE BEFORE YOUR TIME? THE KEEPERS OF THE HOUSE TREMBLE. DESIRE IS NO LONGER STIRRED. DO NOT CONFORM ANY LONGER TO THE PATTERN OF THIS WORLD.

Army Style Cup

This was probably the quickest cup so far. After3 base coats, two glazes called GLO-WORM and POPEYE'S FAVOURITE where poured straight onto the cup straight from their bottles and blew into each other, via pursed lips, over the outside and bottom surface.
The rim was in a colour called TAUPE with little squiggles coming down off it. Inside the cup was sprinkled a mixture of dried glaze dust, left over from mixing palettes and crushed up. For some reason, it failed to melt, so the bottom is lumpy and not smooth as it should be.
The handle was a rush job - it should have been the same colour as the rim. The cup was covered, leaving the handle exposed, and black paint was flicked onto it from a brush.

The fat black streaks on the rough interior of the cup were also poured straight from the bottle.
