I used one of his baseball gloves as a reference as well as simplified online images. I also added 2 baseballs on the sides]]> 2021-04-29 05:03:01 UTC https://padlet.com/forbeslauren13/mmk0ieu0i91r2ygs/wish/1472165129 forbeslauren13 https://padlet.com/forbeslauren13/mmk0ieu0i91r2ygs/wish/1485823736 I rolled out a slab and a bottom piece and then slip and scored them together]]> 2021-05-03 15:41:46 UTC https://padlet.com/forbeslauren13/mmk0ieu0i91r2ygs/wish/1485823736 forbeslauren13 https://padlet.com/forbeslauren13/mmk0ieu0i91r2ygs/wish/1485834796 I rolled out another slab, and before attaching it, I cut it into this glove-like shape]]> 2021-05-03 15:43:39 UTC https://padlet.com/forbeslauren13/mmk0ieu0i91r2ygs/wish/1485834796 forbeslauren13 https://padlet.com/forbeslauren13/mmk0ieu0i91r2ygs/wish/1485845078 From the front, you can see I started to curve them like the shape of a glove, still not attached]]> 2021-05-03 15:45:30 UTC https://padlet.com/forbeslauren13/mmk0ieu0i91r2ygs/wish/1485845078 forbeslauren13 https://padlet.com/forbeslauren13/mmk0ieu0i91r2ygs/wish/1485851210 From the back, you can see that I started to carve out separate fingers]]> 2021-05-03 15:46:34 UTC https://padlet.com/forbeslauren13/mmk0ieu0i91r2ygs/wish/1485851210 forbeslauren13 https://padlet.com/forbeslauren13/mmk0ieu0i91r2ygs/wish/1485862478 I smoothed out the surface of the mug, and added slight indentations ]]> 2021-05-03 15:48:33 UTC https://padlet.com/forbeslauren13/mmk0ieu0i91r2ygs/wish/1485862478 forbeslauren13 https://padlet.com/forbeslauren13/mmk0ieu0i91r2ygs/wish/1485867494 Then I made two circular discs and slipped and scored them onto the indents. I smoothed them out a little so they look rounded]]> 2021-05-03 15:49:27 UTC https://padlet.com/forbeslauren13/mmk0ieu0i91r2ygs/wish/1485867494 forbeslauren13 https://padlet.com/forbeslauren13/mmk0ieu0i91r2ygs/wish/1523355256 Next I added these curved lines for laces. I thought I wasn't going to finish so originally planned to just leave them, but later fixed them]]> 2021-05-14 02:00:58 UTC https://padlet.com/forbeslauren13/mmk0ieu0i91r2ygs/wish/1523355256 forbeslauren13 https://padlet.com/forbeslauren13/mmk0ieu0i91r2ygs/wish/1523361430 I used a wooden knife tool to press seams into the baseball to give it more detail]]> 2021-05-14 02:03:24 UTC https://padlet.com/forbeslauren13/mmk0ieu0i91r2ygs/wish/1523361430 forbeslauren13 https://padlet.com/forbeslauren13/mmk0ieu0i91r2ygs/wish/1523365632 I changed the way I was going to attach the mug to reduce the weight and make it more secure. I also made a groove down the fingers and made an open back. I also tapered the fingers so they weren't so blocky]]> 2021-05-14 02:04:58 UTC https://padlet.com/forbeslauren13/mmk0ieu0i91r2ygs/wish/1523365632 forbeslauren13 https://padlet.com/forbeslauren13/mmk0ieu0i91r2ygs/wish/1523369748 Originally I quickly made and attached a slab with a criss-cross drawn on it, but it was not realistic and looked pretty bad]]> 2021-05-14 02:06:35 UTC https://padlet.com/forbeslauren13/mmk0ieu0i91r2ygs/wish/1523369748 forbeslauren13 https://padlet.com/forbeslauren13/mmk0ieu0i91r2ygs/wish/1523374084 So I redid that part using a rubber sheet with a basket pattern and re-attached it (I cleaned it up later)]]> 2021-05-14 02:08:24 UTC https://padlet.com/forbeslauren13/mmk0ieu0i91r2ygs/wish/1523374084 forbeslauren13 https://padlet.com/forbeslauren13/mmk0ieu0i91r2ygs/wish/1523377185 I added both sets of laces by creating holes and then creating little flattened coils and using slip to attach them as shown. This was an improvement from my original plan of the single layer of laces]]> 2021-05-14 02:09:37 UTC https://padlet.com/forbeslauren13/mmk0ieu0i91r2ygs/wish/1523377185 forbeslauren13 https://padlet.com/forbeslauren13/mmk0ieu0i91r2ygs/wish/1523381556 I don't have a picture, but I rolled out a coil and then tapped on it to make a rectangular handle. I used the half-heart shape and attached it to my mug]]> 2021-05-14 02:11:21 UTC https://padlet.com/forbeslauren13/mmk0ieu0i91r2ygs/wish/1523381556 forbeslauren13 https://padlet.com/forbeslauren13/mmk0ieu0i91r2ygs/wish/1523386109 The first time I went through and sealed the handle on so there were no cracks. The second time I rounded the edge of the handle and continued to smooth it out]]> 2021-05-14 02:13:08 UTC https://padlet.com/forbeslauren13/mmk0ieu0i91r2ygs/wish/1523386109 forbeslauren13 https://padlet.com/forbeslauren13/mmk0ieu0i91r2ygs/wish/1523390166 Its hard to see, but lastly, I went around my whole mug and re-leveled the bottom and smoothed out all of the sides first with a loop tool then with a damp sponge]]> 2021-05-14 02:14:42 UTC https://padlet.com/forbeslauren13/mmk0ieu0i91r2ygs/wish/1523390166
