Flying Turtle
Posted: Sat Apr 05, 2008 7:55 am
Just wanted to share 
This was my first custom pendant requested by a customer from New Hampshire (I think). She provided me with an image of a flying turtle similar to her tattoo that she wanted converted into a small pendant.
After photoshopping the image and turning it into a dingbat (Inkscape tracing didn't work out too well since the image is to be cut so small so I wanted nice quick clean cuts rather than lots of 'smaller' cuts), I had SCAL cut the image using a pre-glazed decal sheet in black. The image measures around .65", the ceramic tile is around 3/4". It was then fused to the tile by kiln firing to 1500 degrees Fahrenheit. (or somewhere around there hahaha)
Thanks for looking!
