A tip for suspending things in resin: You could simply pour thin streams of clear UV resin onto a flat surface, cure them quickly with UV light, then peel them off and use them as hangers to suspend your objects in the container.

Oh tip! Coat the threads with resin first using a stick so that they don't coat themselves with air (it's what's making it so shiny and visible) when the main pour starts to solidify.

[@nutmeg_j]

I read through the comments just to find this explanation, thank you!!!

[@artemas9336]

I am not familiar with how resin works; Can a partial pour, just enough to support the model, then cut the lines and pour the rest after the first batch cures or would the seam line be to obvious? I think the easy "fix" for this one would be little row boat on top with a fisherman :)

[@DreamingBlindly]

@@artemas9336 the seam line would be very obvious however there's a trick where you can hide the seam line if you put some smoky resin as the base then clear at the top then via tube you can feed more smoky resin at the seam line after pouring the clear resin to make it look smoky and before taking the tube you'd need to gently fill the tube with clear resin then gently lift it up to avoid making weird lines or you could use it to make some nice details using said residue in the tube. Lots of possibilities just by using tubes. :D But yes seam lines are very visible in resin due to the separation of material decomposition and if you do manage to hide it, it is still very prone to trapping bubbles or making cavitation bubbles because of the uneven structures of the materials after being exposed to air.

Perhaps because that is the only line at a 45 degree angle? All the others are vertical. Maybe the resin being pored in horizontal layers makes it hide horizontal layers in the line but when the line is at 45 degrees the layers in the line don't match with the layers in the resin?

a tip on getting suspended figures in resin, perhaps you could do multiple layers? one layer of resin big enough to hold gary, with enough room above him that you can have the fishing line to hold him up, then after it cures you can removed the fishing line and finish pouring the rest of the resin out. obviously this comes with the issue of having to pour multiple times, and thus trying to perfectly match the colours, and I am by no means experienced with resin, so take my words with a little bit of a grain of salt. much love
