This is another of the casts I made the other day, but it was still tacky and today I wrapped it in foil and baked it in the oven. It is more brittle than the other casts and I dropped the lower barrel on the laminate flooring and the resin cracked, I have bathed the cracks in CA so will see tomorrow if I get time, whether it is saved or not. What looks like white is actually pink and I doubt I will be able to capture it unless I go to a lot of trouble or send it to Terry to photograph.

I rarely comment on casts or like them but I think this is cracker (pun intended init?)
It looks good on my truecolour screen and awful on the lappy.
I hope you manage to save this one it looks very nebulous init?

Yes, I used sky blue, pink and macro pearl. I think it stayed tacky because I de-moulded too quickly, that's why I have bought more mould material so I can make several more and not have to wait.
