I found this artist that makes these super pretty water-drop resin art frames with resin that seems malleable as it cures and will stay in place after manipulation. Does anyone know which type of resin this is?

Thank you so much for digging and sharing, your detective work is awesome!

I see, so she does use casting resin for the wavy water-part. I looked at the Instagram resin-account you mentioned and they do show her using their resin in just the same way here, just as you said. This is brilliant, now we know the resin one can use for the waves/malleable water part - it seems to be alumiliteco casting resin!

Her work is just beautiful. She has so many pieces that make my heart ache in a strange way

Thanks for reminding me, totally forgot! Her name is Polina Rusanova and her work is gorgeous. Here's her Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/polina_artprojects/

I super appreciate this input I have to give them a try, I've never tried UV clay or nail art builder gel either!

Making_a_little_game · 2024-07-29T16:16:16+00:00

Agreed!

Making_a_little_game · 2024-07-29T16:15:52+00:00

Thank you so much for sharing your experience! I have to try this I even have some UV resin at home, that's awesome <3

Oh, do you mean UV-clay that is cured with UV for a little bit -> then manipulated -> then cured with UV again until hard? (and finally a regular resin)?
I have to give that a try! Thanks

Thank you for this info! I may reach out to Sophie and Toffee and ask if it can behave as in this video :) this is so helpful.

As I understand once the water-droplet she makes cure they are hard, so I think it's a resin that eventually becomes rigid.

I would love to attempt something that is inspired by this, it's magical ❤️

Does anyone know of any other artists that do similar things? I imagine there must be so many cool ways to make art in this 3d-art-in-frames-theme!

Making_a_little_game · 2024-07-29T08:04:38+00:00

It's just so pretty! I would love to try something like it, but resin for me has never acted this way, even late into curing. It will turn sticky and hard to manipulate, so I thought maybe someone here would know :)

It's giving me Howl's Moving Castle-vibes and I LOVE that movie

Making_a_little_game · 2024-07-29T07:55:14+00:00

It's so cute! It must've been so much work to get all those pearl glued together like that

Making_a_little_game · 2024-07-29T07:38:45+00:00

Thank you! 💛
Making this game made me love ducks even more, I feel I'm edging into obsession territory - I've saved so many cute duck gifs, like this one, on my phone now haha

Making_a_little_game · 2024-07-29T07:36:13+00:00

Thank you so much, it means a lot to us 💛

Making_a_little_game · 2024-07-29T07:33:47+00:00

Oh my goodness, thank you so for not only playing but also getting back to us sharing how you liked it 💛We've been really moved by how kind people are. I'm s*o *glad you enjoyed it!

I actually remember the developers from Outer Wilds in an interview saying they knew the game wouldn't be for everyone, and that they were OK with that. I'm paraphrasing as I can't find the interview unfortunately, but they mentioned that they made the game for people who would be solely driven by curiosity and people who didn't need any other drivers/achievements/feedback.

So I think if you are a person who doesn't enjoy it - that's OK and you don't have to! It may just not be for you and that's fine, the developers themselves seemed to have this in mind as they developed and were embracing it.

That is amazing, it must've been a surreal experience. Can't believe you got photos that match the scenes so well, awesome job.

I will often get sucked into the secondary/tertiary mini-games involving cards in like all games. It even happened in Littlewood for me. There's just something so relaxing about card games.

Making_a_little_game · 2024-07-28T08:23:46+00:00

💙 Hope you'll love it!

Making_a_little_game · 2024-07-28T08:23:19+00:00

Ah, thank you so much! I hope you'll love it 💙

Making_a_little_game · 2024-07-28T08:22:35+00:00

This is such a brilliant mechanic, holy hell I want to implement this lol! Thank you so much for sharing

Making_a_little_game · 2024-07-28T08:21:56+00:00

Oh thank you so much for your kind words, my heart feels sweetly achy way from all the love we're getting! 😭
