    That was really interesting. I can't afford to do experiments with what little resin I can afford, but I love watching you and other resiners out there in TH-cam land who are pushing the boundaries of what can be created with this fascinating medium. Thank you for posting this brilliant video Dan! God bless you from a fellow brit.

    Those are really amazing! I’m not sure if I’ve seen anyone going beyond just stirring to really doing artwork by manipulating. Really nice! I’m supposed to be focusing on polymer clay, not resin! You weren’t really happy with the first domed set. While they were not perfect, they were imperfectly perfect and beautiful!

    You can always use synthetic hair. I love the other side of the heart using your hair. Both sides look super cool. The gray flower bloom is soooo pretty as well.

    These are beautiful and a great idea. I've used black 28 gauge craft wire for the antennae. For the body, maybe make them ahead with epoxy or uv and add them right before putting in the wings

    I’m new to resin but what I would try is making the body and antenna using UV resin, then placing it into the mold/resin and going from there with the wings. That’s what I’m going to do. 😊

    I wonder if you could make a UV resin body in the smallest amount of resin to start. I make all sorts of little pieces & parts with the UV for the alphabet letters molds. For water/ocean areas I put regular 2 part resin and add in drops of UV clear or white for the waves.. UV lights cure the UV parts right then.. and I let it sit several hours or overnight for the 2 part to catch up. Thanks for sharing Daniel. It’s always a pleasure to watch you create your art pieces 😊👌

    This really was screaming UV for me! Since UV has to be done in quick drying layers, the butterfly body itself could be done in UV for quick dry layer. Interesting brainstorm! I wonder if using both Mica and Alcohol Ink in the same session would change the flow of things, too for the wings! Hmmm.
