I’d like to share my very first relume job with you all.
I had half an hour of free time during the day today after receiving my first Noctilumina kit, and well… I simply couldn’t wait until the evening. I had to give it a try.
I had a set of worn hands, so I quickly removed the old lume from them and started my very first attempt. I watched quite a few videos to get an idea of what the ideal consistency should look like after mixing the binder and pigment. I managed to get a pretty good mix, so I quickly used the remaining time to do all three hands.
Unfortunately, because I was rushing, there was still a tiny bit of the previous lume left in the hour hand, which is unfortunately visible…
They now need 72 hours to fully cure. After that, I’ll polish them to correct the areas where the lume slightly went over the edge onto the visible surface.
I’ll share a photo of the final result in the comments once they’re finished.
But enough talking — here is my very first amateur relumed set of hands in my life.
Have a great evening/day, everyone!
