- Hi I'm Wendy a resin artist and crafter.
In this video I am making two resin casts from moulds purchased from Etsy (link below).
I am dusting the moulds with mica powder and casting them with resin giving a talk through guide as I show you the process.
They will be used in a piece I am showing you next week. So be sure to come back next week to see how I am using them.
If you have any comments suggestions or ideas please use the comment section below and I will get back to you.
Thanks for watching

Hi Wendy, The Dragon is AMAZING!!!!!! I may be slightly biased tough being Welsh. LOL. I love the Butterfly/Moth as well.
Great video and looking forward to seeing what you do with them. Take care Wendy. Cheers, Huw
Thank you so much Huw. I am a little obsessed with dragons always have been. And I had to get that mould when I saw it 😂 thanks for watching and taking the time to comment as usual. ❤️❤️❤️😀👍
Have you tried Rezin Art micas or Bling It color shifting powders for resin, and Color Art powders for acrylic. They are from Color Art. I think JR buys from them. The Bling It chameleon colors are fantastic Color shifting.
I haven’t heard of those but thank you for telling me about them 😀👍 it’s always good to have choices 😀👍❤️
Fabulous, a masterclass in advanced mould painting with micas. Could you explain the different effects in terms of painting on dry to with alcohol please?
I will do a video in a few weeks. An updated version of the older one with a better talk through. Thank you hun 😚😀😀😀😀👍❤️
They are really nice Wendy one has to take care that no smoke comes out from the dragon nose. 😆 Well done again you do a great job. Bye until the next demo bye.
Thank you so much for your comment Laurence. They are fun and it’s great to get back to colourful projects 👍❤️
These look amazing Wendy. The dragon is awesome.
Ty honey.gotta love a dragon 😀😀😀😀😀👍❤️
Nice Wendy good use of colour On the Dragon in particular, see what you mean about finding a good red. Thanks for sharing
Red is annoying for me. But I’ve been given a link with good possibilities 😀😀😀😀 thank you for commenting Brian. Its very much appreciated 👍❤️
How do you get the colors to show up on clear resin? I've been getting into uv resin and just got mica powder. I tried to use it today but I was using black and silver but it didn't seem to show up when I brushed my mold and when I mixed the powder in the resin it wouldn't cure. Can you give me any advice?
UV resin cures with light. If the light can not travel through it because the colour is too dark it can not cure. 😣
If you want to colour uv resin but want a dark colour then you have to go extremely thin layers and cure each layer and I’m talking paper thin layers.
Epoxy resin works differently and will cure over time.
I hope this helps you 😀❤️
Great video Wendy thanks for sharing your amazing work well done love the colours 😀❤👍
Thank you so much David. It’s absolutely my pleasure lol. Take care hun ❤️😀👍
Thank you so much Wendy, great class love these molds.
Thanks Dee. I do love the amazing colours you can achieve with resin and it’s so much fun 😀😀😀👍❤️
Love this. I would love to see a real red too. The only time I get it right is when I use Resin8 paste. Hopefully there will be a mica out there somewhere...lo. x
I feel exactly the same Clare. I have been given a couple of suggestions so we can only hope 😀😀😀😀👍
Really great coloring. Thanks for showing how you need to remove some color after putting it on so another color will show as well.
Glad you found it useful Lisa 😀😀💜
Very nice job, thanks for showing this
I’m so glad you liked it Dominic. Thanks so much for your comment its much appreciated 👍❤️

Hi Madeleine. Thank you so much. Yes I do sell some on my website. toonpish.com/.
Are you using just a dry, wet or alcohol qtip to do clean up?
I use a little water but alcohol works just as good. 😀👍
Thanks for the question 👍

Thank you so much 😊 and thank you for taking the time to comment, much appreciated 😀😀😀😀😀😀👍
Maybe I'm just not parsing what I'm seeing right- entirely possible with my brain -but the black coloring that you called Hemway looks like it's a liquid instead of a powder? Am I just not parsing that right, or is that what you used? I also noticed you used a different tool for the black than you did the other colors, which just looks like a normal paint brush to me. What tool is that? (I'm new to resin, got the basics down relatively well, now wanting to expand my coloring techniques, but I'm not familiar with some of the tool names.)
The resin8 link goes to a "site cannot be reached" error, btw. :/
Hello 😀😀 ok so resin 8 sadly is sadly no longer in business 😔
The black powder from Hemway is mixed with 99% isopropyl alcohol which makes it liquid and is then applied with a brush.
Here is a little video that will help you understand how that works.

I hope it helps 😀👍🥰
If u have issues finding certain colors micas don’t “have” I use eyeshadows” found a GORGEOUS red from Amazon that came in a set I use them sparingly, but there are Etsy shops that are usually for makeup lol also if a store on Etsy called Pearl Pleasures get some of theirs very rich and bold
Lemme know
Oh thank you Sheryl. I keep buying red and never happy lol. I have a draw full and one day I will find the perfect mica red 😀😀😀😀❤️👍
Just checked out Pearl pleasures on Etsy and unfortunately they are in the use. Stunning colours though. I will keep searching 🤗
@@Toonpish go to Amazon and search “color shift powder”
Yes hun indeed 👍❤️
Duufin 18 Jars Nail Powders Metallic Chrome Nail Powder Mirror Effect Manicure Pigment Nail Art Powders with 18 Pcs Eyeshadow Sticks, 1g/Jar.. this 1 has the GORGEOUS red! A “little goes a LONG WAY!
Lovely, Wendy! I really like the dragon!
Thank you so much Billy. Dragons are amazing creatures ❤️❤️. Gotta do more 😂
Hi, I see your red mica also turned brown-ish, but you were ok with it and you didn’t say anything about the reason for it or how to fix this problem. All my red roses turned a muddy colour when I pour black resin over them and I need to know how to retain the colour - can you help? The chameleon powders were ok with the black background.
I hear you. Red is a really hard colour.
I have searched and searched for a good red and although I have found a few, none of them work with black behind them sadly. And I have people trying to find a red chameleon too.
In short, there is no red pigment that works well with black atm that I know of.
But
Flakes are an alternative
Awesome. Wendy. Love the colors. Thanks for the tutorial on put on take off. Time consuming but beautiful outcome. Hugs Sheryl 💙🎨💙
Thanks Sheryl. I do love dragons and had to use this one and the moth is amazing. Have a great week ❤️❤️❤️
Lovely colours Wendy. Looking forward to seeing what you do with them. I'm so glad you tried those colours. I've been looking at the set on Amazon, thinking shall I buy them or not. Think I'll definitely get them now. Arteza do a nice red, but I'm not sure if they sell it on it's own. You might have to get the set. Or you can get a lovely red from www.resincolour.co.uk
Thank you so much I will definitely try out those to see if I can get that red I’m after lol. I’m so fussy 😂😂😂😂😂 those colour shift are gorgeous tbh. I have to stop myself from only using them and nothing else 😂😂😂😂 have fun Yvonne. Thank you so much for your comments 😀😀😀❤️❤️
This is a GORGOUS video! I love how you did the wings. You are right about RED. It is hard to find a good one in mica. It looked more red next to the purple than the gold. And of course I will have to get the butterfly mold! XOXO
These moulds are gorgeous. And don’t cost a fortune either. I will be buying more. But spoiler alert I also have a really big one that I will be using in the next few weeks 👍❤️😀
5:38 Purple ? I can't resist it ! I keep coming back to it !!! Me too Wendy - I love all shades of purple. Next week ? Can't wait ! Stay safe. -Mike😷
Thank you so much Mike and I’m glad it’s not just me 😂😂😂 stay safe my friend 🤗
Oh my ! Wow Wendy. These are absolutely gorgeous! Love the colors and the molds and how you designed the colors💙💜🖤❤️
Thank you so much Johnnie. I do love them but I’m sure I might have mentioned that a few times lol. Thank you for your comment. Have a great week 😀👍❤️
Beautiful colors!! Can’t wait to see what you create with the pieces!!
✌🏼🤍😊
Thank you so much Jeepsy. It’s a fun project and as I love dragons I had to go for it 😂😂😂 ❤️
Ahhh... So, sort of a reverse painting in! Brilliant and game changing for me! I just love this channel!
Yes Pam exactly! Reverse painting lol. Why didn’t I say that 🤪 I am so glad you like it 😀😀😀❤️👍 thank you so much Pam. I do so appreciate your comments ❤️👍
Check out Cult Glitter here in the states. Her colors are fantastic!
Thank you Rechelle 😀😀 I will have a look 💜
Those are both amazing! I love dragons! The moth with the skull head is really cool! I love it!
Thank you so much Lisa 😀👍🤗
Can’t wait to see the final result. Petra Jongebloed of Just Paint makes gorgeous micas
Does she? I am going to have to check that out!! Thank you so much Rose 🌹 👍👍👍👍❤️
Oh I love that dragon Wendy and the moth. Excited to see what you're going to do with them!
Thank you Patricia. It’s definitely my type of mould thats for sure. Hope you like the next video as much as I do 😀👍❤️
Look at nail powders for a good red 😊
But will they stay red with black behind them 😳😳 that’s the big question 👍❤️
hi i,m quite new to this u mention achole ??
I use isopropyl alcohol to release bubbles from the surface 😀 it breaks the surface tension and lets them out easily 👍 hope this helps 💜
Omg wow😍🤩 so glad I found you xx
Hehe thank you so much Maxine. Spread the word 😂😂😂😂😂 seriously - thank you 😊
i cant find the second part.... having to re sub everyone cos i forgot my details so im way behind and cant find the second part
It’s the next video on the list 😀👍
A different way to make a room sign
@@Toonpish ok i will go hunt lol
i hate looking for red they are never red you get pink, orange, brown everything apart from red BUT look at cheap make up pallets (starter kit more kid/teen age they tend to have all the colours under the sun that you would where ant all are shiny so i add the smallest amount of a shiny mica or colour shift white/silver just something that wont change the colour just give a sheen, i have use red blusher again they tend to be the colours you would never ever where lol and had some good results with them
I have actually found a couple of good reds from Etsy. But what you are saying makes perfect sense. Thank you so much Ellie 👍👍
@@Toonpish i think i use eye shadow more than mica i dont always want that full on mica effect it can be to much at times but eye shadow is made with mica and the cheap pallets have like a chalk which is why the colours stay a bit truer than micas, i have a mica called "BIG RED" its like a washed out purple pink almost like the colour you get when something red gets in your washing but it is most defiantly NOT red lol
😂😂😂😂
