Terror of the Deep Sea | Epoxy Resin Diorama

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

#Dragonfish #Resin #Scary
This week, I made a diorama of a deep sea diver going a little too deep and running into a Giant Dragonfish. I'm a slow learner when it comes to resin, so the first attempt at this diorama failed due to user error. I decided to remake it and I’m gift the second iteration to one of my subscribers!

    I think the bubbles almost make the first one far spookier, like the bulk of the sea dragon being obscured leaving most of it up to imagination an the light reflecting all around looks so cool. I can't wait to see more sea creatures in the future, keep it up. 👍

    It would be super cool if the diver had a flash light or something to. Just showing a bit more of the monster. This one really makes me want to pick it up and look at it. . . maybe not what you'd want done if you spent that many hours making it though.

    I'm currently in the midst of my first ever resin pour. It's on its 2nd day of curing and it is nerve-wracking checking it each morning for leaks or to see if it is even setting. It's comforting to know that even someone as experienced as you, Boylei, can have problems with it. It means I don't have to beat myself up as much when it inevitably goes wrong
