Galaxy Resin Coasters: Tutorial 3D galaxy effect, with planets and shimmer. Gold and Silver leaf

Galaxy Resin in gold and silver. This project I use acrylic paint and mica powders to color the resin. The gold and silver is gilding flakes. I like to do one of each to see which one I like the best. the three dimensions of these coasters are so beautiful!
Note: I wait 12 - 24 hours between each layer

I love the fact that you do not talk throughout the entire video .... some tend to jabber on and on and on and drift all over and it gets very frustrating when you are trying to learn and relax. Thank you :)

You know that pressing mute is an option, right? Pretty messed up that people are kind enough share their talents for your benefit and you complain about how they choose to share.

It's gorgeous! I am a galaxy lover so thank you for sharing the video. Loved it! 💖 You can try liquid latex to protect the other side instead of tape. And heating the tape little bit before moving make it come off easy.

I LOVE IT!!!!!!

[@sarahradtke8767]

Really pretty. Wasn't sure I was gonna like all the gold and silver flakes, but I think they came out beautiful

[@ResinAsYouWish]

I know what you mean, I do think less on the flakes next time - I feel like the band of gold /silver is a bit too wide - I like them - these are 5 inch coasters so they are definitely statement pieces

[@karenglenn6707]

Ooh, that’s what appeals to me the most! And they certainly came out beautifully.

[@lnc-to4ku]

What unique and beautiful work you do!!

[@FoodandTalesbyTaSHa]

I like with gold flax ❤️

Bravo

[@marycasasnovas5710]

Wow

[@Itsbrittanysummer]

Your work is AMAZING. I love details & you seem to do a great job with that. I’m really new to resin but do you have to let it dry between layers? & if so like fully for 24 hours or just a little bit?

[@ResinAsYouWish]

Hi, thank you for the compliment. I let each layer harden (12 to 24 hours) For sanding I wait 24 hours or it isn’t hard enough

[@sonjamarciniw5007]

Good question I was thinking that also

[@abilen26]

What are sprinkling or doing right after you heat? I want to make sure I'm not missing a step! Thank you, and as always, beautiful work!!

[@AagamCrafts]

Hi.. loved your creation. I would like to know to do such art which ratio of Resin will be good to go. 3:1 or 2:1

[@Stu81]

Hi, maybe you have touched on this but I'm curious as to if the viscosity of the resin matters when creating this effect?

[@ruthwest3280]

How long do you let your resin sit in cups? It looks really thick. I love your work and am trying to duplicate your technique but I’m not sure how thick the resin should be before pouring.

[@melb3513]

Absolutely gorgeous. How did you make the quasar? Would love to see you make that.

[@ResinAsYouWish]

I'm preparing a talk-through of this tutorial in the next month or so - thanks for the compliments!

[@Gretchens]

Hello. Does adding silicone leave a oil shiny spot on your piece? Or can you just cover over it with a clear resin layer to hide it? Thank you for your videos.

[@begwenly]

How do you make top coating look so easy 😩😩😩

[@cherylwager1511]

So beautiful. What do u use to sand and prepare for the final coat pls? X

[@ResinAsYouWish]

Hi, it’s all here on this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/q6aaXmmpo614kM0 - there even links to the items used 👌

[@Nikkie215]

Do you have a tutorial for the 3rd coaster? I liked that look the best but don’t see how u did that one

[@ResinAsYouWish]

Yes: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jqmth4CrlJ6Yf7M

[@noeljosee]

Are you sprinkling or spraying alcohol at any point? Beautiful work!

[@ResinAsYouWish]

No alcohol on this project 👍

[@ghostgiirl22]

I love your work, the only thing I would change is I wish you would talk and explain a little more of your process while you’re doing it. Other than that I love! Keep making more vids!

[@lisetsanchez6237]

Amazing 😻! What resin do you use?

[@ResinAsYouWish]

Hi I added a link to the description (sorry I missed that before)

[@mamreid]

Where does one find the base color “sweet violet”? I’ve looked everywhere?

[@ResinAsYouWish]

Hi, I didn't have a link for that specific color on amazon, but you can find it here www.colourarte.com this is a rezin art luster pigment

[@jennifermarie1230]

How do you avoid the drips that go underneath on the bottom of the coaster? What do you do then?

[@ResinAsYouWish]

Hi, here is what I do - see the time stamp for taping 👍

[@hibaibrahim2302]

For the first layer did u let it totally dey then added the 2nd layer?

[@ResinAsYouWish]

Yes, I let it harden for about 12 hours

[@heilieoyharcabal3305]

What is the red blower being used? I am mimicking this tutorial and can’t get my colors to spread 😭😭

[@ResinAsYouWish]

Hi, it is a heat gun (about $24 to 30$ at a hardware store)

[@haileythuy743]

do you have to wait for every layer to dry for at least 12 hours?

[@ResinAsYouWish]

Hi, I have learned through trial and error that if I do the layers too close together in the end the project will have a subtle rippling across the top. The use of the epoxy I use is meant for a counter top in a thin coat. To keep stacking the resin makes it much thicker and layers shift as each one finishes their cure. I am unable to sand resin unless it’s been 24 hours or it gets gummy on the sandpaper, but is hard when you touch it.

[@grinogirl]

These are beautiful !! After the first layer of black I can never get the colors to show up, the purple, pink and blue. Are those special paints ? My reg acrylic colors don't show up at all. What am I doing wrong ??

[@ResinAsYouWish]

Hi, the galaxy purple, pink and teal are mica powders - These powders are incredibly vibrant and I have links to them in the video description- all the colors added on the project are put in clear resin layers and are independent of the bottom black layer (I am planning on redoing this project and talking through it)

[@grinogirl]

@@ResinAsYouWish thank you so much, i'll look for the link, I *NEED* these colors !! This is the best galaxy coasters i've seen !!

[@ResinAsYouWish]

Where can I find the link for Rezin Arte Luster Pigment Set for Sweet Violet ,purple galaxy wild Jasmine and your Heat gun

[@ResinAsYouWish]

Hi the rezin art luster is Found at: www.colourarte.com (She also sells these on Amazon) Heat gun - I have a red version of this one: amzn.to/2WXGrwq Green heat gun: amzn.to/3uhkuaa the links wont work if Amazon is out of stock, what you are looking for is a heat gun that comes with attachments, has high to low temperature options as well as a high/low blow setting. You may also want to ensure the attachments that come with it are what you want. enjoy!

Yes, but not fully cured, just hard enough to tap on

No explanation! The products are kept secret-you show them for 1/4 of a second. No one could see what you are using! Are you trying to keep the products or technique secret? If I can’t learn from the instructions and the products, then my time is being wasted!
