FA/TD: Transformers Armada/G1 Human versions (2014)

My take of Transformers Armada Jetfire, the shuttle who combines with Optimus Prime. I'll post the link for the model later. 




Not actually sure is this more G1 Ratchet or Bayformers... Maybe a combination or something.

Cem: Candle flames (2014)

Just something weird I made out of K129, glazed by my fiancée. It goes over a small candle, as depicted here.

Cem: Double Happiness (2014)

Red patina on Craft Crank. The yellow glaze didn't last, so this is yellow and gold acrylics. Dunno if this would stay on the wall, it's rather heavy.

Cem: Phoenixe Imperiale (2014)

Finally with patina, mostly red, intensified with orange, yellow and gold acrylics.

Cem: Dawn & Moon Thrones (2014)

CJ: Going Greek (2014)

Another late arrivals. Greek styled necklaces, The last one is already given away as a gift, the rest are for sale. The clay is once again Craft Crank and they are glazed by my fiancée, since I was rather busy with bigger glaze/patina projects.

Cem: Inferno (2014)

First one ready, out of the ball (Batsy Pumpkin) and cube (Starry Silent Night). Made out of Craft Crank, which doesn't belong to my fave clays... I've painted it redder since, but oh well. The bottom was supposed to be yellow and the top nice flaming red... The patinas were for lower temperatures and the clay sucked in the glaze, mostly...

Cem: Goldeneye (2014)

Spanish black clay version of our dearest kitty, Köpi. His nickname is Goldie or Goldeneye, since for foreigners, Kyösti is QUITE hard to pronounce.
 And this is the model. I didn't have any reference pics, out of sheer memory alone.

FP: Autobot bag (2014)

Blue bag, fabric markers, large Autobot logo print and a light table. Tadah!

Ceramics: Glittery black rose (2014)

This nice piece is an old, perhaps 2013 or 2014 made rose, fired straight up high to turn it black. Recently I bought nailpolish that had multicolored glitter in it and painted this with it. The result is simply stunning. It's very thin, but durable. Not that I have tossed it to the wall or dropped it...

Ceramics: Ushabti - Faceless Faraoh (2014)

A little something I started making out of black clay, the result of being bored and out of ideas, since the original stuff I had to do simply didn't appeal to me. This is solid, it's not hollow from any point and is able to stand on it's own, but it ended up leaning forward quite a lot, so now it just leans back. The painting I did on it didn't quite go as planned, but hey, at least I tried. Also tried to glue the part that came off from the necklace, but after drying to be clear, the dang glue turns back to white...

Commission: Bran Aquarium (2014)

A friend asked me, upon me asking if she wanted me to make anything for her, say, out of clay. She flat out said: Bran Castle. So called Dracula's Castle. So, I went to look for the model images, had teacher print them and did this in couple of hours. It's not perfect, but she loves it, the shrimps love it, worms and fishes love it, so all's well. It's made out of Craft Crank with white patina and pink glaze.
Just saw the shrimps the other night, they were hanging on the roof and it looked like they were "fixing the rooftiles", fondling the roof and just enjoying the view. The shrimps actually vanished as soon as the castle was placed inside, going to see every nook and cranny.

Ceramics: Batsy Pumpkin (2014)

Finished just in time for the evaluation, I got it out of the kiln and to the table half an hour earlier. My favorite, Spanish black clay and orange patina, made by my fiancée, since I'm not that compatible with math...
This idea was... well, ideal, since when I started this, it was Halloween, but it was fired only just before Christmas, so this was on the first ride home few hours after it was evaluated. This landed me with 3, that is the highest grade. I'm rather proud of it, the lid and everything, the shape, which the teacher liked, saying it was very even and well rounded in almost every angle.
That of course was harder to tell since I shaped it a little to resemble a pumpkin, tho it still had to contain the ball shape. I was worried how the orange patina would stand out against the black, but it looks hella neat.

Ceramics: Transformers candle pots (2014)



















Self-explanatory? No? Ok. Made these two for my fiancée and me, I made the Autobot one for myself and my spouse glazed it blue and clear for me. You can light the candle from the gaps in the mouth of the autobot logo and the cheeks of the decepticon one. Materials are K129, white handbuilding clay and Spanish Black Clay, that took a little lead like look from Cooper 309 glaze and the purple engobe, that mostly vanished, giving it a rather worn out look.

Jewelry: Caged (2014)

These were harder than they look... the plastic drops don't move quite well and I should have attached the aluminum curves to each other, I think, but... ^^

Jewelry: RingEar (2014)

Diamond cut aluminum, platinum hooks. They are extremely light and you can barely tell if you are wearing them. Feels like the hook itself is heavier.

Jewelry: Dark Drop & Glass Drops (2014)

 These could actually work as a set, glass, some black highlights, silver plated copper and platinum... With a silk chord. Works like a dream.
