I didn't think of it as reckless - you realized the potential hazards and were cautious, even if you didn't expect the "pop" as it cured. Reckless would have been taking a torch to the bubbles hahaha.
Wheee! Dan, I LOVE the hairspray results! 💕😍👍 Fabulous color separation and vibrancy, and I LOVE those spores, even the ones touching the surface, for some reason? The "controls" are still gorgeous, as always, but...WOW for the experimental ones! Do it again, pretty please? Yes, try the thinned-out sinker, just to see, please? This was fun! 😊👍
I agree that the hairspray makes the colours pop more, which has its place in resin art. Personally I like the more uniform petri effect. I’m certainly looking forward to more experimenting with the hairspray. 👍Thank you Daniel. I hope you were wearing your white coat! 😅👍🇬🇧
Wow, the second one with the hairspray... when you showed the side view made me think of an alien concert for some reason. Then I realized it was reminding me of the Daft Punk music video for "One More Time!" 😂 I love that video and the effect with the hairspray. 🥰 Don't even mind when it blobs because the blobs have dragged actual vibrant color with them, not just the plain white or very diluted color. 😁 I'm definitely wanting to see what you create with this method and the modified sinker white in the future. 😉👍
When you turned the second set over I said wow before you did - I love the way the green has spores in that one - like the difference with the heavier spores and the brightness in the experiment ones - brilliant to see ty
This is fascinating, Daniel. I love the vibrancy of the colours on the experimental ones. The elongated spores make them look like some alien landscape or something. Thanks for another great video tutorial! I can't wait to see what the watered-down sinker can produce!
Can defo see the vibrancy of colour with the hair spray, you are defo the resin top scientist for us to learn from, thank goodness you enjoy this so we don't have to do bland resin art 😊
That is so cool. Love the brightness of the colours. The “controlled” pendants are gorgeous as well. My favourite was the large oval one without hairspray. Thank you for sharing ❤
Very nice comparison video. 🎉🎉 That's why I like to put hairspray in my homemade alcohol inks. It's really helpful at controlling the spreading. It also leaves them a lot less muddy. 🙂 It truly does make a difference!
Idea... try drop a color then immediately drop the white and so on and so on. And do your normal let colors settle then drop your white in each and see the difference. Love this experiment and all your videos.
They are definitely more vibrant on the right. The longer spores don't bother me much unless it's a lot of them around the same area. There are some muddy spaces in each side. I think I like the the hairspray side better for the color vibrancy. ✌️❤️🤣 peace, love and happiness
I really like the spores ❤ Maybe, if you repeat the experiment, you could also try with just 2 or 3 colors. for example: red, orange, yellow for a flame look. I think this will look awesome too!
epoxy resin yes that's what it is called. Llast video I called it time-dry LOL couldn't come up with epoxy. This worked really nice. Amazing how the hair spray effected the colors. I kinda like the long spores effect. Thanks
❤ Hi Daniel, I think the fist two and the last two that you done are stunning. With the first two, I noticed in the one on the right at first glance it looked like a sort of mermaid at the bottom of the pendent. the hairspray is most definitely awesome for this kind of project.
Great idea. That bright pink keeping its color especially was awesome. Makes me wonder what doing a set of just neon would come out like - since you'd have minimal muddying and really be able to see all the individual colors more. Also, I'm not super familiar with the sinker white - what would happen if you spritzed it on with a spray bottle instead of doing drops? Would you be able to get a bigger field of spores?
I love the 3 D effect of the spores.... maybe i am just a little wonky ...lol...but I really like the spores...it's like the colors are jumping out towards you!!!...Great Job Daniel once again!!!!😀
Wow Daniel, this is awesome. It's deffo worth it, to the point I just got my can of hairspray and have put it on the side to be taken into my studio lol. I love the brightness of the colours and I LOVE the spores, so no need to thin the sinker white down for me. Great work and thanks for sharing your crazy experiments with us all. Diane x
This is amazing I love the colors more on the hairspray ones very vibrant almost neon both turned out beautifully but I really like the hairspray ones. Now I’m checking to see if I have hairspray 😂😂 thank you for sharing your creativity really like how your crazy mind works with resins.
Fantastic!!! This is incredibly helpful. Sometimes those little rascals spread so fast I don't have a chance to add all the colors that I had planned to use. Thank you so much Daniel ❤😊
I agree, I think it worked too, such a cool experiment and I like the heavier spores! In my head I have this idea of half filling the molds and drawing designs in black then adding more when its cured, doing the hairspray and alcohol and seeing if you can get a stained glass result by not swirling the colors. Maybe add each drop with a toothpick for better accuracy if not using an abstract black lineart design, idk, just a thought lol.
I think both methods have their merits in different situations, really. Stunning results on both sides! It feels a bit like the same artist painted the same piece in two different mediums; one is like oil paints, and the other is more similar to gouache or pan pastels.
