You gotta glaze the back, too. It works like this: 1) Get a chunk of copper or silver or gold 2) Get it to shape and thickness 3) Flip it over and put your scraps and spillings on the back (traditional) or get some nice lookin' opaque solid color (artistry) and bake it 4) Cool it down, flip it over again and put a layer of clear on and bake it 5) Cool it down and bend fiddly little wires and glue them down with a slime made of lily root powder and bake it 6-a lot) put colors in and bake it I dislike the inexactness of (5) so I've blown like $20k to carve a solid billet rather than get out my tweezers and goo. "tweezers and goo" is definitely a whole bunch of the artistry involved but it isn't fun to me. And yet somehow "huh I need to design a mount for an NPN sensor over a trigger on the ATC to talk to the ECM to talk to the motors to talk to the pneumatics so my LUA code will correctly execute 35 steps to change a tool" is more fun. (6) is fucking fun.
