Bahhh just had the same thing happen to me. I wish I would have seen your other video. Do you think if you varnished after you sanded it down then re poured it that it would have finished flat?
@@saskchauchtv7417 I wouldn’t “varnish” with normal varnish on resin, it also runs the risk of reacting badly when you do re-pour…. but as I did with this, repouring after sanding definitely fixes it, but of course for this board it needed a third go to make it flat cause the damage was pretty bad, but as I explain in the video I had my reasons for not doing it that third time, are you going to give it a second go? If you sand it down as much as you can, and if it’s a flat surface )unlike my curved board) it should work a treat for you 👌👌
@NicMac yeah I'm going to keep going untill she's nice and flat. I've put too many hrs into this project to stop now haha. Thanks for the reply!
@@saskchauchtv7417 good luck!!!
Que chimba
11:28 very cool design. Loved watching your process including your work around after gloss varnish.
@@leigh-annh2544 thanks so much 🙏🙏
Nothing is ruined in art. If anything, you're learning. Sometimes, the mistakes are the best part of the process.
Amazing as usual. Your videos are a pleasure to watch and your energy is great. Can’t wait for the next one.
I really appreciate that man, thanks so much! The next one will be coming a lot sooner this time!! 👌👌👌
SIIICK, Smashed it!
Thanks so much!
Mega project Nic!!
Thanks so much man! 🙏🙏🙏
Another sick project!!! Great work!!!
Thanks so much Ian! Appreciate your comment 🙏🙏🙏
Sick result - and so satisfying to watch how it all comes together!💜💙
I really appreciate that! I always hope for it to be satisfying 🙏
Sweeeett! Your control over lines always blows my mind
Appreciate you Biggie! 🙌
Amazing Artist ❤
thanks so much Sabrina, nice to see your name pop up, I hope you are well
@@NicMac thanks a lot 🌹 I'm not very happy with the French Nazis coming to power. The LGBT🌈 movement is, as in Hungary and Slovenia, a target to be destroyed...
you need to do a custom Roman Reigns skateboard
One “of” him…or ‘for’ him? 🤔🤔
❤😮😮
🙏🙏
I was grinning the whole video 😁 Dope work! 🔥✊🏿⚡️
Eeee! well that makes me happy! Thanks for watching and for the comment :)
What happens if you don’t seal the POSCA markers?
Depends what you’re doing after…. If you’re using it as a skateboard it will start to wear earlier than the paint will as the markers are not ‘permanent markers’ …….if you don’t seal them before brushing varnish on, it will smudge. Hope that helps
@@NicMacthat’s super helpful! I love your video! You’re super informative but straight to the point, it’s perfect! Also you’re stunning!!! 😅
It's the possibility of darkness that enables our light'. I'm pretty sure you have always mattered, but now you realize you matter.
Really appreciate that 🙏🙏
I never thought about painting through-out life until the summer of 2012 rolled around and I decided I wanted a new hobby- so I picked up a 10 pack of oils and an assortment of brushes for $2.99 at Michaels. Within a day or 3 I decided Vincent Van Gogh was going to be my inspiration and off I went. How about you- any inspirations? It's obvious that you love what you do and I am going to guess that when you were 2 you knew you were going to be an artist :) You seem to have that imagination flowing inside you as your painting progresses .. Great stuff , your art is a breath of fresh air !
Random question if my painting on a skateboard has a matt finish if i resin it will it bring it to that mirror gloss or not . Ive painted it with acrylics but some of the shades are matt as the white I used to mix most colours is a flat white . Ino that posca is fairly matt so I thought you may know ? Thanks 🙏
Yes it will be full gloss, think of resin being like a plane of glass over the top of what you paint 👌
@@NicMac thanks buddy was worried it wasn't going to really work over paint finished with a Matt finisher
@@soakandshine92 make sure you let whatever finish you have put on, to fully cure, at least 3 full days to be on the safe side 👌 but yes, it should work a treat! I wish you good luck as it can be tricky but it’s worth it👌👌
Thank you for this! 👏🏼
The cratered bubbles could probably be done intentionally to create an effect with art that looks like a lunar or martian surface.
Brilliant. I am going to give it a try. ❤
Such a phenomenal design, I loved seeing the whole process.
How do you re use resin thats been mixed and ends up on the plastic bag?
Oh no, sorry if I was unclear, I meant the black bin bags can be reused 👌👌 as the “dripped resin” can be peeled off. Not the resin itself 🙏
@@NicMac thanks for the quick reply! No worries I just misunderstood! Thank you for the clarification! All in all a great video! Thanks for sharing your process!
@@CluenMedia i really appreciate that! Thanks so much 🙏🙏
Looks awesome. I wouldn't skate with it, but rather hang it on my wall
How much is this pair worth bc I have them in my hand right now and I’m not joking so any advice would be appreciated
My pair or a different pair that looks similar? … unfortunately if it is my por, I don’t think I’m popular enough for them to be worth anything ahaha sorry about that 🤣
2024 any one 😢😅
2058 for me 😂
Great video.. some good points to note. And can always learn from our mistakes 💯
Im Currently in the progress of doing my own 1st Hand Painted deck and stumbled on this clip.. this looks so cool. I gave you a Sub.. it gave me great ideas and tips.. great work
Thank you I really appreciate that! And happy to help! Let me know how it goes!
@NicMac 🫶🏼 awsome and will do..
Wow, amazing. I loved this video 🫶🏼
Thank you so much Staci!!! More to come!!
Looks great and very helpful video. The same has happened to me unfortunately but as you say, it’s all a learning. Btw I use clear fishing line to hang them, very strong and almost invisible, either that or a small d ring bracket screwed to the back of the deck. 👍👍
You’ve come so far and getting heaps better at this. I’m back cause I’m attempting to resin a board and nervous as hell again ahaha
I will always be nervous when it comes to resin… but each time it gets easier 👌👌👌👌
@@NicMac poured mine today! And I’m glad it’s over 🤣🤣
🤙👏👏
Pretty cool. I miss tagging. I was a tagger back before it was widely accepted as art.
This is absolutely beautiful keep up the amazing work
Thankyou so much 🙏🙏
💥💫✨🌟🤩🤩🤩👍👍
🙏🙏🤣
So satisfying watching this video, your truly skilled at what you do, me as a skater dont really care about graphics, but a handpainted one is a piece of art for sure Lovely work.
Thanks so much for your comment, it really means a lot 🙏🙏
Loved it all through the process and its really amazing
Out of curiosity if you add chucks to this board and ride it, how long do you think the design on the bottom would last? (If you skate frequently)
If you don’t varnish it same as normal boards, with decent varnish maybe a bit longer, but with RESIN!! Pretty long! But as i mention in my latest video when I “resin” it, it can reduce flexibility a bit
looks so litt
one question because i saw that a lot of people get small and big dots of spots where there is almost no resin how to prevent that?
For a skateboard this is the issue that happens a lot and I did get it on mine also. The solution is to fill it first and make it air tight, on my next one I will do this.
¡¡Innnnnncreíble!!
Muchas graciassss 🙏🙏🙏
so if i dont put the varnish on the posca drawing, then when i put the epoxy resin the posca markers can melt and ruin the whole drawing?
Yes! You must spray it with varnish (brushing any other type of varnish on will also make it run) when you use marker but especially with Posca markers as they are water based and run a lot easier. (Crazy timing this comment I’ve literally uploaded a new video on the topic just now!, so there will be more info there too)
Amazing work. It's making me want to paint my snowboard.
I love your mindset, create to inspire other to create One of the reasons I started to share my art 💭
So important that you are sharing! I love what I’ve seen! Looking forward to seeing more of your stuff 🙌
Good
I’d love to have Nic Mac designed t-shirt!
Hoping to make that happen! Its been tricky as I’m looking for good quality t-shirts! Hopeful soon though! Watch this space!
So satisfying to watch the process - gorgeous!! ✨⭐️🌟💫
Thankyou so much for the kind words and taking the time to comment 🙏🙏
I now know what I can do with all my old white shirts. Hell yeah thank you!
