    As an artist I like the second bowl better. Not only for size, but for color choices and use. Would like to see bumps and more ridges on the interior. Brush shapes are very nice but my preference is for longer handles, less messy.

    I think you are well on your way to establishing yourself, I like all the colors you chose. If I were to pick one I really like would be the second also, really like the blue and the reddish white. I agree with Razorfeld maybe some more ridges in the bowl.

    I'm with razorfeld on the bumps and ridges on the interior. Now this is only a personal preference bit I really do like the blues you are using. Yet if I were to buy one I would request a darker blue. Overall though some of the best scuttles I have seen, trust me, because I have been looking for one!

    Nice bowls all.
    I like the earthtones personally for my man cave. I presume those spoke shaped grooves at the bottom would act like ridges in other scuttles to help aerate the lather?
    Nice work sir.

    Those are great ! Nice variety in colors and shapes.
    Good judgment comes from experience, and experience....well that comes from poor judgment.

    You are correct mike. as for the earthy colors that is a blessing and a curse of high fire ceramics.
