Here are some of my creations, made by hand, hardened in fire, finished with love.

Here is the tree the victim is hanged from in Disco Elysium

This is my wonky pot

Over here is the Matriorb from
Homestuck that doubles as a teapot if you want to drink clay particles because the inside is not glazed

ceramics are super fun to learn, and once you get the hang of it, the feeling of just taking something from your head and making it REAL in your hands is amazing
clay is super cheap too, id say cheaper than dirt but it literally IS dirt.

ooooooooo 1) very cool creations!! and 2) i took a ceramics class in high school and it was awesome and ive been dying to get back into it. glad to know clay's apparently cheap!
how do you go about firing it though? do you just use your regular ass oven or do you have an actual kiln? buying a big ass expensive kiln has kept me from getting back into it but i cant say ive ever looked into alternatives before so im v curious to hear if there's an easy solution lol

i've been using my school's kiln to fire my shit. you could go to a local ceramics shop, if you have one, they might offer firing services. you could also go to a school with a ceramics department and ask if they'd let you.
i wouldn't know anything about firing your things in an oven.

here's 50lbs of clay for 32 cents a pound. id recommend sticking to manufacturer's websites when looking for good value if youre gonna order from online.
