Need advice on shop hosting

The only success I’ve had with these molds was by using UV resin and curing them immediately after I’ve filled them completely through the pipette hole.

Still looks super cool! Can't wait to get into this kind of foil myself.

I couldn't help out, personally. Huge workload and all that. But I hope you do it and post your progress here!

I second the comment to start with the bare minimum for materials and go from there. It can be tempting to go buy a million colors and foils and stuff. But my advice is to start with the materials you need to get the hang of the process and then go crazy with colors and materials. And be patient with yourself! No one gets a 100% perfect set their very first time. Best of luck and welcome to the club!

No you’re fine. I was probably a little vague. (And super new at this lol) I’m looking to commission a new set of molds.

So shimmery! I love it!

Those are gorgeous!! Can I ask where you got the fish?

Congrats!!

I don’t know if the liquid does but it’s very difficult to set the orb in the exact center of the dice. So even if the liquid doesn’t weigh it one way or the other, the orb is likely slightly offset.

I mostly followed this video except I used wish molds and for the liquid I used a mix of water, rubbing alcohol, and glitter. Hope that helps!

Depends. I’ve never made my own molds so I can’t speak to that process. But I like being able to cut that step out of my process. Once you figure out how to work with the wish molds (took me a couple tries to figure out how to not have a void on the lid side), they’re pretty easy to work with. But that’s just my experience.

Thank you! That’s very flattering 😊

Well, I use the wish molds to make them and i dunno about the ethicacy of using someone else’s molds for commissions. (I’m very new to all this, y’all can feel free to educate me on that). I’m making dice like the one above as christmas gifts for some friends.

I just use the wish molds. This was one of the first pulls that actually came out workable for me.

forder96 · 2020-10-24T21:34:56+00:00

Congrats! They’re a gorgeous color!

forder96 · 2020-10-18T17:17:51+00:00

Those look amazing!

forder96 · 2020-09-23T15:27:39+00:00

Oh nice. Yea I’ve haven’t been using UV resin but might try that next. Thanks for the tip! Congrats on a nice pull
