How to make easy resin ocean waves with different kinds of pigment paste.

I really had fun working with these three different pigment pastes to create waves. I used Mermaid Trash, Just Resin and Armor Art.

Thank you for sharing this technique in different ways, astounding.

[@clearskiesart2670]

Thank you for sharing

You’re welcome I’m currently working on some great tips for current projects 🦋💪

My question, which I have put forth to other DIYers that have gone unanswered is, does this process leave a ridge between the epoxy and your board? If I go about doing this, I want to ensure that the epoxy that I put down with be level with the board surface and not elevated. Thanks for your video.

[@clearskiesart2670]

Great question. It will leave a small ridge, which is great if you want to show each individual wave. If you want the waves to blend and not have an individual ridge, try putting a clear top coat. 🦋 Hope this helps.

[@clearskiesart2670]

I am also getting ready to do another wave tutorial with more pigment pastes. So stay tuned. 💪🦋

[@atatouchchannel]

thanks! this video helps, i also tried this resin style. but i only use the pigment that i can easily get here in malaysia, it doesnt create cell / lacing as much tho.

[@clearskiesart2670]

I am glad that I could help 🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋 I have to order the white titanium from the UK.

[@andytucker9573]

Awesome, this was so helpful, thank you, Im making a wargames board and it has a coastal zone with a beach and sea and so il copy the heatgun technique to get that awesome waves effect you have there 😊 thanks for sharing!

[@clearskiesart2670]

So very glad to help! Let me know if you have any other questions. 🦋 Share your piece as well! 🤗

[@SPS_survivor]

Good luck, no way am I putting a downer on it but it’s not as easy as it looks, use a quality resin and a great white like JR - would be great to see the results 👍🏼

[@doglifehub]

Are they for hanging on the wall? They're beautiful

[@clearskiesart2670]

Hiiii, I was just messing with the different whites and how they reacted to the touch. I still have them in my resin room. 🥰

Màu trắng bạn dùng nó tên là gì? Có bán ở trên thị trường không vậy

[@clearskiesart2670]

titanuim trắng từ Just Resin

[@stevechance4422]

The board with the bark on it,did you seal it with anything before you poured the resin?Beautiful work there.

[@clearskiesart2670]

No, just poured the rest and waited for bubbles. Some boards I will seal if it was nit treated. You will get never ending bubbles. Lol

[@clearskiesart2670]

Resin

[@clearskiesart2670]

And thank you so much 🥰

[@stevechance4422]

Thank you for your replies. I am so disappointed in my first attempt at doing this technique with the waves.Mine had no foamy appearance. It was actually the first ever resin pour for me.I used dollar tree resin so maybe that played a factor in it.$5.00 for 12 ounces. I used castin craft white pigment and was hoping to get some good looking waves but alas it didn't work for me. What resin where you using?

[@clearskiesart2670]

Ohhh, I tried many times before. 😂 I did find that I like Stone Coat Resin (no lingering fumes) and Just Resin titanium white. Did you make a video?

[@lauriecummings9853]

I bought th creature liquid latex like you suggest, how do I apply it to the backs of the tiles? How long should it dry before I can paint? Thank you in advance

[@clearskiesart2670]

You can use a brush, finger to apply a thin layer. Small note, if you put it on thick, it will take longer to dry. All you really need is a thin layer. It will dry pretty fast. Typically I’ll put it on let it dry 4-5 mins, flip it over and start working. ☺️

[@brendalittle528]

Have you ever tried white acrylic paint for the waves? I'm just starting out and that's all I've tried so far and I am struggling to get it to not look like clouds. I thought maybe I just didn't have the technique down yet, but now I'm wondering if it's my pigment. 🤷‍♀️

[@clearskiesart2670]

Acrylic paint is very thick and will not break up. You have had the technique down all this time. 😊 I love using Just Resin titanium white.

[@lindagatchell8079]

I am struggling so hard right now with my waves....what is your recipe for castin craft and do you wait some time b4 you blow out?

[@clearskiesart2670]

Hi, your resin has allot to do with it. I use Stone Coat countertop art resin with a set time of 45 mins. I typically do not let it sit, but you can. Heat gun nozzle needs to be the tube one and I prefer Just Resin titanium white pigment paste. You can always add in some resiblast as well. I hope this helps. 🦋 You got this!

[@shannonpersky4366]

Did you put the latex on the sides too? Then peel it off? Would that work on wood?

[@clearskiesart2670]

No, just on the bottom 🦋

Como haces para que se abran las celdas blancas a mí no se me abren tanto

[@clearskiesart2670]

Cuando uses tu antorcha, abrirá las celdas. No lo sobrecalientes. Espero que esto ayude.

[@scottbaker1699]

What kind of heat gun did you use?

[@clearskiesart2670]

It is a Genesis Dual-Temperature Heat-Gun GHG1500A. It was about 20 dollars. 🦋

[@vivianingles7742]

I need a one on one session

[@clearskiesart2670]

Anytime 🦋🦋🦋🦋

[@kerihicks2852]

What type of resin did you use for these whites?

[@clearskiesart2670]

I believe it was Stone Coat Epoxy. Great resin to work with.
