If you've ever wanted to make a resin shaker skull but didn't know where to start, I'm here to help! Ask me any questions in the comments! My materials: Unicone resin Rolio mica powder Renfio glitter Plastic clear bulbs UV resin
No you don't have to leave a bubble. First of all, mix your water and glycerin with the mica powder and non chunky glitter before pouring into your globe. Secondly, use a piece of plastic or Plexi glass as your seal for the bottom, it's easy to cut out of an old cd or cassette case or anything really, plastic is everywhere. Cut your base a little bit bigger than the hole, make a hole in it, big enough to fit the end of a pipette or a medicinal plunger through, you can do this by heating up a screw or a nail and melting the hole into your plug, then glue that on with your UV resin, you can still cover the entire surface area of the plug with the UV resin, except your hole, leave that open, then fill the water in your ball until it's at the very top of your plastic plug with a pipette and plug your hole with a uv resin plug the way you do yours in this video.
@@Redlotusresin Oh, it's ok.. I was just curious. I'm sure your daughter loved it. I'm hoping to make a similar skull so your video is very inspirational. Thank you.
I absolutely love this idea!!! 💀The Wickkit's comment about the plug is what i was going to suggest as well. I was also going to suggest using baby oil instead of water and glycerin. That is what i use to make my shakers. Using babyoil and glycerin makes a really cool effect as well! You can colour the glycerin using resin dye and it will have a lava lamp effect 😀
No idea if the purple could be cos the glitter can clump together but I'm sure I seen on another you tube some time back someone said to add to tiny bit of alcohol in with the glitter and it stops it from clumping together 🤔🤷♀️ I made one with where and baby oil. Recently bought some vegetable glycerine as I want to try some shakers for christmas
@@shiningbright9094 Thank you! I use Unicone Art Resin and do it in 2 pours. I only use deep pour if I’m going to pour it all at once. A couple of my newest videos have updated techniques if you’d like to check those out!
Yes! Clear first around the ball, let that harden then add whatever color resin you want! I also have a better video showing the process in a snail mold.

The amount of clear resin used in the beginning depends on how much of the"globe" effect you want to see. I usually fill my mold about 3/4 of the way up with clear and then do the last part with a color. Hope that helps!
