spent today and yesterday printing out some new colors, two variants of purple, one which is a LOT lighter

to the person who asked about small bubbles, turns out a few of mine DO end up with some. Theres not many, but looking closely at certain prints youll be able to spot em, once i figure out how to remove those ill update ya :]

ive also been messing with packaging, ive figured out the boxes and inner packing setup i want, i just need to get past my anxiety and start selling !! i still wanna do a litttleee more testing just to make sure nothing breaks (aka throw packages at a wall to see if they break, if they survive then im confident theyll survive shipping😭😭😭) and even if they dont survive, i always plan to print extras just in case things go wrong

while i will be making these mostly as transparent and such, for the DnD crowd im also wanting to sell out non-transparent minis for painting and use! its not my priority so i dont plan it soon, BUT if youre in that crowd and interested, just lmk!!

Resin crafting from today

[imagine-darksiders]

The girls are finally ready! Grace the Golden Sebright is completely hand made.

I cut the vague shape of a chicken out of clay with a craft knife, wait 24 hours for them to dry, then sand them down to smooth the surfaces. After that, a layer of gesso to make the paint sit nicely. Then comes the actual painting using acrylics.

Once that’s completely dry, a few layers of UV resin on each side to protect the clay. Curing the resin is pretty time consuming with no freaking SUN lmao.

Finally, I attached split rings to the hooks for extra security and put the whole thing together. 🌈

Second attempt on keychains since the first one just broke(? The resin fell off the acrylic so... glad this one has less bubbles!

So I ordered one of the Lord of the Rings Miniverse balls.

You might remember the whole Miniverse line was recalled recently, and these have a different resin that's supposed to comply with regulations the older resin did not comply with. So they already knew before the recall.

I've been warned this new resin does NOT cure.

It's supposed to come with a tip for the resin bottle and a micro funnel because the mold is itty bitty and nearly impossible to fill otherwise...

Finger for comparison... My nozzle was missing, so I didn't even try to work with the resin it came with and used my own. The tiny crucible resin bottle looks like a coffee pot or edgy tumbler.

The mold is EXTREMELY difficult to fill because it's so small and narrow and I struggled with my thicker UV resin.

I got "Elven Dagger" which is rather generic, but it did come with two hilts so I could try twice and this little box of tiny tools which are, IMO, the best part of the whole thing. The "file" has sandpaper glued to it so it actually works, and the vial is metallic powder.

I'm starting to think no one at MGA actually knows how UV resin works because the instructions say to coat the inside of the mold with the silver powder, fill it, plop the hilt on the top, and cure.

With the already too-opaque mold coated in powder and a cap over the only area that ISN'T coated in powder, there's no way for UV light to get to the resin.

So I didn't do that.

What I did do was mix up some glow-powder and mica into clear resin and cast that.

The piece is so thin and narrow that even after curing it was bendable. There were two large air bubbles; one right at the tip of the dagger and one near the hilt. I tried to patch them in but had some trouble...

The hilt popped right out of the resin while I was attempting to demold which was a pain, but it did cure.

Anyway, here's my messed up elven dagger, which is even more messed up because I ended up coating it with some UV builder gel to keep the tip on and THAT didn't feel like curing all the way, either, so I rubbed mica on one side to get rid of the persistent stickiness that was JUST on that side.

The hilt popped out again even though I tried reattaching it with more resin. That would be irritating if it didn't mean I can try again as many times as I want.

The end result is underwhelming and took an hour longer than the whole project needed to, but the little crate of tools is really fun.

Wild berry poptart painting!! Probably the best poptart flavor imo. This was actually the first time I used UV resin in an art piece so that’s kinda neat.

Dice I made for a dear friend!!! This is the first time I've made any dice and the first time I used a lidded resin mold (usually I just use the open top ones)
