Spider and Bats in Resin (So Scary)

The origins of this project date back to a time when I was a wee lad. My parents were just killed by a robber. I was sad and I ran away from the funeral. I fell through a poorly covered hole in the ground into a cave filled with bats and spiders...…Okay maybe I just had these spiders and bats laying around and decided to make a cool bowl out of them.

How about one more halloween bowl with three colors of resin. Vintage colors orange, green purple and plack and for the wood use cherry? That would look really nice I think.

[@thomasarussellsr]

Very well done. Love the extra deep pour so you could turn it to the shape you wanted without scraping the inlaid items. (I've seen so many turners cut into their buried items, so many times). The wood turned out beautifully, and the shatoiance showing through the resin is quite beautiful also. Over all, an outstanding outcome, in anyone's book. A great addition to the Halloween collection. I know your wife isn't letting this one go anywhere either. 😉

[@MoonpieCreations]

Thanks Thomas. Actually the wife really didn't want this one in the house. lol Spiders bad.

[@thomasarussellsr]

@@MoonpieCreations ha ha ha, fears and phobias can be weird sometimes. Plastic spiders trapped in resin, but just the reminder of spiders are still "bad" 😨😱

[@xpatches13]

I noticed it looked like your epoxy with the spiders could pass light through it? If so, I wonder how cool it'd look if you had a LED strip running under the lip out of sight shining Halloween themed lights up through your Halloween themed epoxy! =D

That's a pretty cool idea. Thanks.

Great project. Did you intentionally do multiple pours or did you underestimate the amount you needed to cover the spooky things? Any witness lines? Tough to estimate in that kind of shape.

Yes I did mean to do multiple pours. There is a slight witness line but it's on the side and not very noticeable.
