Instructions

  1. Begin with properly fired shelf cone 04 Bisque. Moisten a clean sponge and wipe bisque to remove any dust.
  2. Use the Soft Fan to apply three coats of FN-001 White to the front of the canvas. Let dry.
  3. Cut out the pattern, then place on the canvas and trace around the edge. Use a foam roller to roll MT-002 Woodgrain Mat with SC-5 Tiger Tail, press the mat to the top of the canvas over the edges of the paper pattern to transfer the design. Hold or adhere paper in place on canvas while stamping to mask zebra area.
  4. Place a piece of AC-230 Clay Carbon Paper under the pattern, trace on the zebra’s stripes and eye, mark the black stripes.
  5. Outline the stripes and eye and the outline of the zebra body with SG-401 Black.
  6. Fill an AC-220 Detailer Bottle with SG-201 Black Cobblestone, fill in the black stripes with the cobblestone.
  7. Use the Liner to apply one coat of SC-15 Tuxedo over the eye area. Apply a second coat of SC-15 Tuxedo over the pupil of the eye, leaving a highlight area in the eye.
  8. For the zebra head with the muzzle, apply Tuxedo over the muzzle. When applying the second coat, leave a section with only one coat for a highlight.
  9. Use the Soft Fan to apply two coats of SC-15 Tuxedo on the edges of the canvas.
  10. Fire to cone 05/06.
