Hi guys,

here's my very first finished mug from Ikea. It was a bit tricky to put on the tiny thin black bows, but I finally did it.

Thanks Sullivan, well, for this prototype I made first a vector graphic and printed this mirror-reversed on paper to create a pattern for black vinyl. Last week I purchased a black pen for porcellan, but haven't had the time to check it.

Hi guys,

here's my first try with a special porcellan pen. I've tried it first on two of my old white mugs, before I purchase the authentic ones from Ikea. Now I've to wait for 4 hours until the paint is dry and can be burned in the oven.

BTW: I created a pattern and drawn the single lines by hand with a soft pencil first.

You and me both. It's going to take some real delicate and patient stencil work! About to give it a go here shortly. If it goes well I will post a picture. If not... then you'll know.

I wouldnt even know how to attempt ha! my hands are far too shaky to free hand it unfortunately

So the freehand/stencil technique was tricky... We may have to give this another go with a better stencil. Used a oil based paint pen from Michael's. Not bad, but free hand drawing is not my forte'.

I did a little research and it turns out Carl Urban says this was not a prop made for the film but one that Chris Pine bought for his personal use and used in the film.

Would you be willing to link this interview?
