Your tip of using the alcohol worked great! I made my first set of clear pieces as a test. Just a few small bubbles at the base on a couple.

That's great!! I picked it up from other artists on Instagram, and it's such an amazing secret. And if you you're pairing it with a good resin, you're golden. Alcohol inks in resin also minimize bubbles because of the alcohol in them. I noticed that once when I accidentally dripped some ink...

Thanks for the tip about the alcohol.

It's a huge help!! I hardly do anything without it. If I'm working with molds, you NEED IT.

Hi there… when you said you were doing blue and white pieces, then proceeded to pour clear resin… I was a bit confused… then even more confused when you poured white on top and poked them… but, once you demoulded them, I saw exactly why you did it a particular way… because they turned out beautifully… they are just adorable with their little cleanish tops and white bottoms!! Thanks so much for sharing! I’d love to see you do an ocean/beach scene. Much love from Nat. (Brisbane, Australia) ♥️♥️🇦🇺

The white pieces are basically the "white team." I just use white alcohol ink just to make them more fun and give them a cool effect. Thanks.

Brilliant!

@@noreasonjustresin resin is just so unpredictable so you never know how it’s going to come out of that mold! Haha I got my mold and will soon attempt to make my son his own set but if it don’t turn out, I’ll be placing a order! Haha

@Jeanna Miller good luck. And yes it can be scary.. my last chess set I picked two colors, instead of one, last minute. I was so nervous... but they look good. Whew!

Do u use any other equipments? Like a blender wisp or measured cup and so on? If so how do u clean the stuffs after pouring? 😊

I had an electric mixer, but it didn't last. I must not have cleaned it properly. I use solo or Dixie cups for measuring and mixing. You can reuse them a few times if you take the sticks out. I don't use any special equipment... you can use masking tape to clean molds. It's no fun, but it's a part of it.

What is the secret to demolding these without breaking them???? I am struggling

Try to roll down the sides. They are difficult, especially when they're new.

@@mattersofthehartbynat8815 I would try to spray 91% alcohol to break the suction. I wouldn't try soapy water becuz it seems too messy to clean and dry, too much work. But that's just my thoughts.
