I made more porcelain blanks in order to try out the colours and make the finished product.

This time I tried continuing to fire at 650 degrees, but increased the rate of ramp up to 300 degrees per hour and subtracted the soaking step and just cut the power to cool the kiln when it reached 650 degrees.

I found that the colours of the ceramics were very vibrant, but the cover coat was not completely burned off, which caused the pattern to fall off very easily. I need to experiment more.
