Countdown to Philcon

The Philcon Art Show starts on November 17th. That is about four weeks from now. We are loading a bisque kiln in preparation.

There are five of my rockets currently in the kiln. A sixth rocket is still a bit too damp. It is a mid-sized, three engined rocket, with tight tail fins, and a pair of canard fins. The only carving is the windshield. The canards are so far forward on the body of the rocket that I had to break two notches into the throwing chuck to accomodate them.

Julie has a number of her dragon pieces, both for raku and high fire in the kiln. She is waiting on a set of mugs that she threw that have dragons emerging from the side, reading books.
