Instructions
- Begin with properly fired shelf cone 04 bisque. Moisten a clean sponge and wipe bisque to remove any dust.

- Using a CB-202 #2 Detail Liner, apply 2 coats of SC-11 Blue Yonder to the eye area. Float thinned SC-29 Blue Grass to the iris of the eye. Apply 1–2 coats of SC-15 Tuxedo to the pupil of the eye. Add a highlight of SC-16 Cotton Tail.
- Using a CB-110 #10/0 Liner, outline the eye, nose, teeth/mouth and whiskers with SC-15 Tuxedo.
