Instructions

  1. Begin with properly fired cone 04 bisque. Moisten a sponge and wipe bisque to remove any dust.
  2. Using the Script Liner with SC-16 Cotton Tail, apply 2 coats to the eyes. Allow glaze to dry between coats.
  3. Using the Soft Fan with SC-23 Jack O’Lantern, apply 3 coats to the body and bottom. Allow glaze to dry between coats. Make sure glaze is bone dry before moving onto the next step.
  4. Squeeze around 1 TBS of SC-75 Orange-A-Peel onto the palette. Thin with water. Using the Soft Fan, brush over the body of the monkey. The glaze should pool into the crevices. You can dip the Soft Fan in water to remove any excess glaze.
  5. Using the Soft Fan with SC-55 Yella Bout It, apply 2 coats to the muzzle of the monkey. Apply 1 more coat and shade the edges with SC-24 Dandelion. Allow glaze to dry between coats.
  6. Using the Script Liner with SC-88 Tu Tu Tango, apply 3 coats to the nose. Allow glaze to dry between coats.
  7. Squeeze around 1 TSP of SC-2 Melon-Choly onto the palette. Dip the sponge in the glaze and sponge the cheeks of the monkey.
  8. Using the Detail Liner with SC-15 Tuxedo, outline the details on the monkey.
  9. Using the Soft Fan with SC-75 Orange-A-Peel, apply 3 coats to the inside of the monkey.
  10. Fire to cone 06.
