Monster Mug 3

I forgot to add in the last post that I added little legs with clay to the bottom of my mug and during the weekend i thought of the idea to draw a little monster on the mug with his legs sticking out! And so this week i did exactly that. I painted an orange-ish red-ish colored little monster onto the side of my mug and painted the rest of it black to make him stand out as much as possible. i gave him big very captivating eyes and a cute little almost shy looking smile. But after he went into the kiln, i put him on the table to start overglazing him when all of a sudden him leg broke off! The other leg is still fully attached and doing just fine but for some reason i mustve badly attached one of them and it just couldnt hold on any longer. But the leg that fell off is still fully intact and i’m keeping it safe so i can put it into the kiln and just reattach it back on to the mug after its all been high fired. Here’s a picture of the leg waiting to go in the kiln with overglaze already on it.
