And he found one.

Black Dragon Plate
Exploring a minimalist dragon-silhouette design on a plate. A plate works well as a canvas because it’s much easier to manage. I also tried another dragon style that’s completely different, and I’ll post it soon.
Castle in the Sky
I’ve been experimenting with new surfaces for my ceramics, and I realize that a vase is a excellent canvas. The height gives me more space to capture detailed subjects, like the magnificent robot from Laputa: Castle in the Sky. For this piece, I decided to try painting the robot along with the golden Laputa emblem…
Unique Dragon Scale Mugs: A Handmade Fantasy Creation
Inspired by images of dragon scales—probably from a fantasy movie—I created a pair of large mugs featuring a scale pattern and a rustic, handmade feel. I made the scales pointy to distinguish them from those of fish and snakes. If I were to make them again, I’d try larger scales with a slightly different overlapping…
I had drawn Goku, but not on ceramic plate until…
I asked a fellow potter which animated character he’d recognize on a pot without a doubt. His answer? Goku. So of course, I had to try! Painting with underglaze on bisqueware is a whole new vibe—nothing like paper, but so much fun!
Iron Man Boot Mug – Mark 2
After retiring Mark 1, I went on to make Mark 2—smaller, cuter, and a bit more refined. 🦾☕ Which Iron Man suit I based it on? Honestly, I can’t remember. I spent hours hunting for clips of Iron Man’s boot online… and it was nearly impossible to find! I guess the boot is not very…
What If Iron Man’s Boot Was a Mug?
5 years ago, I made this MCU Iron Man–inspired mug. ⚙️🔥I’ve always enjoyed superhero movies, and I’m fascinated by the suit designs—Iron Man’s armor feels like a mecha suit to me. Sure, plenty of Iron Man helmet mugs exist… but his boot? 👢Better yet, how about my design of it? Unfortunately, the firing went wrong,…
My First Gundam Cup: A 40th Anniversary Tribute
I made my first Gundam cup in 2019 to celebrate the 40th anniversary of Gundam. It even had its own adventure—travelling all the way to Tokyo, where it now lives with my brother-in-law in Japan. There was supposed to be a matching Zaku cup, but sadly, it broke halfway through carving. A bittersweet memory, but…
A Vase
Carved Vase (In Progress) This piece is still in progress. It’s bisqueware—thrown perfectly round and carved while leather hard. No glaze yet, just the raw clay. There’s still some glazing to do, but I wanted to share this stage. Sometimes the bare surface says enough on its own.
Tea Light
Ah Mong is an AI robot who’s still figuring things out. He’s clumsy and always seems to end up with a scratch or two. He hasn’t finished his training yet, so he can be a bit annoyingly naive—but that’s part of his charm. Underneath it all, he’s got a kind heart and a curious mind….
