[rakukuku 122]

Ok, I posted a pic in my gallery of two banana slugs; one raku fired and one high fired. Which do ya'll like the best?

 

I am still desperately trying to place a photo on my page but all efforts have failed.  it just won't let me do it. nothing happens. any clues?  Rakuku

I like the one on the right. Both are great, but the carbon cracks from the raku take away from the realism.

to post an avatar try the "post a picture".  to post a picture, try "post an avatar"  or some such gobbledygook.  nothing is as it seems in the instructions for putting info on yourself.

I like the way the glaze turned out on the raku slug better.

The one on the left. I like the color better. The realism isn't necessary.

I vote for the raku one as well.  The one crack on it's face makes it look like it's smiling.  You forgot to make some slime trails for them.  Nice work.

I have banana slugs that frequent my back porch steps- they are cool! I vote for the Raku one too,  he is glamorous enough to sit on my bookshelf  -minus the slime trails

I like both of them.  Personally I think it falls under the individuals personal taste.  They both have there merits.  From my personal choice the one on the left I would thing if the lines were closer together it would give it more texture.  And for the one on the right I would like to see a little color contrast in it emphasizing the texture and flow.  But this is personal taste and I'm sure some people would prefer the opposite.  If were a teacher judging them on appearance they both would get a high grade from me.

_{The one on the right for me. The glazed surface seems to work better with the grooves and gives it a slimy appearance.}

_{Both are cool.}

I left a comment on the gallery shots-too close to call, they are both dynamite.

I looked at them three times since yesterday because I couldn't decide as they are both great. So now my latest feelings are leaning toward the one on the right. I'm drawn more to the textured lines.

Hey thanks all for your remarks on the slugs. If I can figure out how, I am going to post a picture of the "Slug Taxi", a new sculpture. Banana slugs are so gross but around here they are iconic. I am now working on a king and queen slug.   rakuku

 When I lived in Oregon, I would take out the garbage barefooted, at night. I used to get those nasty slugs squished under my feet and between my toes... ooooey goooey!

 However, I like the yellow one. He speaks to me, says, "don't go barefoot in the dark."

I think your slugs are cute... We used to control our banana slugs with salt. So that made me wonder how your slugs would do in a salt kiln....lol
