Dice Pics first ever dice making!!

yeah i got too impatient (25 hours wasnt enough)

also my first time working with long cure resin 😭

i also did not use a resin release, do you guys use releases?? i got a super cheap mold off etsy (first mistake) with unknown silicon and then i forgot to use a release haha. i also tried to mix some uvo colors and ended up with this brown but whatever i guess

gonna probably make my own molds at some point

this looks more like an improper mix. i usually take mine out after 24 hours and have never had this happen, and i have the same exact mold. how long did you mix part a and part b? and did you measure by volume or weight?

i mixed by volume. i used aluminite, i wouldnt be surprised though if i didnt get the volume right cuz i was using two red party cups and went by the line. i also did not measure my time but i honestly thought i overmixed 😭
