friend shaped creature :)
id: a small, simplistically stylized ceramic sculpture of a standing werewolf decorated with earthy colours. Its little paws are held close together in front of its belly, snout raised and giant wet eyes peering upward.

dudeeeee your ceramic dragons are so COOL im in awee!! I saw your thing where you needed a method to make the wings, ive never done wings except on birds and what i usually do is make a frame with twisted nichrome or kanthal wire, and then at the thickest parts wrap the joints with shreds of paper [the paper burns away in the kiln and if the greenware is dry enough dont worry about air bubbles] , and then wrap the clay over the frame. It takes some practice, but every artist seems to develop their own method somehow. Ive also found that hollow limbs are sturdier than solid ones. Cant wait to see what else you make though!!!
:O thank you for the advice! I actually just picked up some nichrome wire myself but I didn't think of getting to join supports yet. With the paper burning away in the kiln though, wouldn't that make smoke in the kiln? I go to a studio thats semi-public so I don't want to ruin anything
I'll keep the hollow limb tip in mind too 👀
also, here's the finished boy!

He's funny because I meant to make his tail a point of support, but in the middle of drying out he decided that he wanted it to float instead (by just a hair too)

Jaguar Mortar
Chorrera, 1500-300 BC (Late Formative)
Works such as this one are thought to have served as ritual mortars for the preparation of hallucinogenic snuffs, to be inhaled by shamans to facilitate their interaction with the spirit realm. Although this vessel exhibits some fine scratches within the bowl, it does not seem to have received extensive use. It is possible that this particularly elegant version was created specifically for mortuary internment- it may have thus been used a single time, containing freshly prepared snuff for a deceased shaman to take with him into the spirit realm.
