Hey everyone! Im new to lamp working I started in Oct. Super fun! Lately I've been trying to sculpt more intricate pendants. I came across this design I like called "Alligator eyes" They look pretty nice. I was working on one yesterday and left it in the kiln. The next day I came back to pick up my work and noticed there were interior cracks in the eye. Total buzzkill. I'll attach images of my pendant and the cracks im talking about. Does anyone know what I did wrong? What can I do to prevent this from happening again?

Thanks.
