- This was a bit of a sidetrack away from the Acrylic Flow I normally do! This is my first try making a Resin Skull! I give some great tips to avoid bubbles in the resin. I hope you enjoy!

I dont usually like skulls but you have changed my mind 😊, well done it looks brilliant. I might give this a try. Cheers from Victoria in NSW Australia
You must be in the ml ile, making your resin in specimen cups! LOL But you did an amazing job and kept the color so even! I love it!
Thank you! Cheers!
I am going to make one but I'll be using an empty perscription bottle to make the cavity for the hole for the lights
That's brilliant! Don't forget to share the result! 😁😁😁
Yes we want to see
I actually used that on my first attempt. It worked great in my opinion
Pretty cool technique! Love how it turned out.
Thank you! 😁😁
Where did you get the lights?
I bought them off Amazon. They are bottle lights!
This looks really cool! I can’t hear you very well. And your music is a lot louder than you are.
Thank you for the comment! I had loads of sound issues for a while but I think it's all sorted now! 😁
Love it! What is the total amount of epoxy that you used?
I use a 1/1 ratio... It was approx 300 ml
So if there a busted bulb theres no way to fix it?
yep but the bottle lights are made up of many tiny lights.. so all good! And also once its on its stand its pretty much as safe as houses! ;-)
Do you use any kind of demolding products?If so what would you recommend??
Hi Steve! Sorry for the late reply! I'm away on holidays until tomorrow! No I don't use any demolding products. The resin sets solid and clear. The mould just peels off easily. Sorry I've never tried the type of stuff you are asking about! 🤷
You can use a silicone release spray or even just a small spray of your isopropyl alcohol to pop it out of the mold more easily.
Wow, super cool!🤩Looked like a psychedelic performance of Hamlet going on there!✨✨✨ Love the icy blue colour. Wishing you a Happy New Year from Tokyo!😊🎶
😂 thank you! It was fun trying something different! Happy New year from Ireland to you! 🥳☘️🎉🎉
How much do you sell these for?
Honestly I just made this one for fun! I've sold some paintings alright but the resin skull I just made for me. ;-)
Genial...
Saludos desde México.
BEAUTIFUL!! So glad you left it clear blue! It's gorgeous. JOB WELL DONE!
Thank you! I'm just contemplating embedding it in wood today! 😁
I'm looking for a hobby, how do i get started doing this?
Hi! Just take a bit of time and watch a few youtube videos where people make something you think is cool.. you'll probably need to buy a few things but start small and just give it a try. The resin itself is never cheap so for a first one just get a small portion in case you dont llike it.. ;-) best of luck. There's moulds and resin available on amazon. keeping the bubbles out is the hard part..
@@obscurityart Thanks, I'll take your advice and check some other videos out. I'll see what happens.
Fantastic job! I must give this a try.
I want one but life size
Ohhh now THIS is pretty cool, you did an awesome job!
Thank you! I had fun making it! I keep it by the pc! ;-) Thanks for watching!
I use a tiny drill bit to pierce.
Fantastic! Looks truly beautiful
Thank you!
Oh my goodness it turned out fantastic. Just a note, please wear a mask when working with resin, save your lungs.
Thank you, I will! ;-)
That does look cool. I wonder if there are color changing leds on wire like the ones you used. Time to search for led wires. lol. Might be fun to do a string of the mini skulls with one led in each one. I suppose that if you do a string of the mini skulls, each one could be tinted a different color instead of needing color changing lights.
That would be cool! I'm starting a new resin project tomorrow.. do stick around.. it should be fun!
Your skulls are fantastic!
You are super kind! 😁 Thanks!
great skull what sort of resin do you recommend to use
I like a 1 to 1 ratio resin... The trick is to stir in one direction while sitting the container of resin in hot water... It makes the bubbles disappear! Slow steady stirring for at least 5 mins.. I just use whichever is the best value from Amazon when I run low... 👍
For your first casting you did great! I also have this mold and will be trying this method!
Good luck!
came out awesome. Did you actually make this in 4 days? did you cure for 24 hrs. after each pour?
Hi! Thanks for watching Debra! I did let it cure inbetween .. So it was either 4 or 5 days.. I cant remember exactly.. It would have depended on my work scedule at the time! I'm really happy with it.. I do my woodwork in the back garden so its still at least a month before I can make the base.. but the lights work brilliantly.. I deffo recommend giving it a go! ;-)
That looks amazing, I love it.
That came out absolutely perfect!!! Outstanding ❤
Thank you so much!
wheres the switch set up to turn it on epic
The wires come out the back of the bottom of the skull... It's a standard set if bottle lights.. I'm in the middle of setting it into a hardwood base... Update video in the next few days! I've been a bit invisible on my channel for a few months! Life got in the way.. but working my way back now! 😁
Love it it's a skull blue n lights up everything I love 😊
Thank you! The bottle lights are such a simple and easy to use item! They're really effective! Thanks!
❤️ LOVE this!! Gorgeous color and sweet way to light this up!! Great idea!
Thanks Nancy! I'm really surprised and pleased by how well it turned out! 😁
It would be so neat if you made one with the lights only in the eye sockets of the mold.
That would be pretty cool! 😁
Awesome❤
Thank you!
Amazing
Thank you!
An awesome job for your first attempt I would never of guessed 👍💯 Beautiful 🤩
