A 4-6-2 Pacific steam locomotive crosses a river on my S gauge model railroad. I scratch built the trestle from strip wood and created the river using paint and an epoxy resin.
Note the activity by the river bank where two travelers have set up a campfire. It's actually a small LCD bulb that is powered from a transistor radio. Instead of HEARING the music you SEE a flickering "campfire."
Poudre de pigments caméléons dans le fond et inclusions dans résine transparente
Le rendu n'est pas super car dû aux paillettes des pigments ainsi qu'à la brillance de la résine
This is a life size and very life like lacquer on epoxy sculpture. Created by hyperrealist sculptor Carole Feuerman. This beautiful creation is currently at the Frances M. Maguire Museum at Saint Joseph's University in Merion, Pennsylvania, just outside of Philadelphia. Carole Feuerman does incredible artwork.
I went to visit this museum with my daughter and grandkids and was mesmerized by this piece of art.
This was made using four processes to make it come together. I have managed to finally mix paper, wood, epoxy and photography in my art. Next I will add rocks and metal.
The custom minifig guns above show a few possible configurations
You will need crazy glue (cyanoacrylate), epoxy or a flexible adhesive like goop, as the parts need to be glued on. Note: The parts will not bond with regular hobby glue as they are impervious to most solvent adhesives.
Juan Carlos Distefano comments on the present condition and his view of the future of Argentina. Starting from modeling clay, switching to lime and gypsum, then finishing with reinforced polyester and epoxy enamel or cast polyester, gives a unique transparency in the works. This effect emphasizes the expressiveness of the figures. The fusion of the sculpted body and the enveloping matter creates figures immobilized, unable to react and metaphorically trapped in their own bodies. Blank looks inhabit bodies without identity, scratched, injured, dismembered, anonymous messengers of violence, horror, degradation, cruelty, contempt, oppression. They are men who have suffered massacres, race riots, murders, genocides. Symbol of the physical and moral violence that has gripped Argentina during the dictatorship between 1976 and 1983, act as a spokesman for the inequality that still dominates the town. This is the history of Argentina, the story that he presents so emphatically so that something can change in the future. The exhibition appropriately titled "The rebellion of the form" fits well into the context of "All the World's Futures".
this is a present I made for my husband. these 2 birds are us. the interesting thing about them is that each of these birds can not stant on its own- if you put them alone on their feet they fall. but if they stand together hugging, one shading and comforting the other they stand firmly. they are a lot like me&mehusband: I'm small and round and he's tall and leggy. these are miniaturs (the long one is 5 cm long). they are made of epoxy-plasticine and wire.
today i'm listening to records because it's raining out.
rainy days make for good record days.
and i haven't listened to the epoxies in too long.
Made this guy a few weeks ago just never got around to posting him :) he actually took quite a bit of work to build. First time really working with epoxy putty so that was fun and you can see it on the helmet. Gunmetal paint looks really good on him and i topped him off with a flat clear top coat :)
Having had no problems for the last 6 weeks I suddenly develop a severe allergy to epoxy resin. Still got two boats that are only half finished! Gotta come up with a plan. Keep you posted.
Miliput is a lovely two part epoxy putty that cures rock hard without heat. I buy my colored ones at Ancestral Dawn on Ebay and my green grey at the local hobby shop. Miliput is very heavy so there's no point shipping what you can get locally but it's cheaper to order the colored stuff from the UK than have the shop order for me. Weird how that works out.
Though Miliput comes in multiple colors, there are only 3 hardener colors and they seem to be interchangable with the different bases.
A. Yellow Grey ( yellow + grey hardener)
Old faithful. This is the cheapest one and the easiest to find. Fine for anything being fully painted.
B. Terracotta ( terracotta + grey hardener)
C. Black (black + grey hardener)
D. White Superfine (white + white hardener)
F. Silver (silver + white hardener)
Very pale grey.
G. Black + white hardener
H. Terracotta + white hardener.
I. I...did not mark this one. Oops. If I remember, I will edit this.
J. Yellow + white hardener
K. (Unmarked) A test to see if two fully mixed colors could also combine. Looks fine to me. (Terracotta + grey hardener) + (white + white hardener) in equal parts.
There is no real point testing blends with grey instead if white because there isn't a huge difference.
MH Jinnafire, head size reduced with an acetone shrink...and unfortunately ripped badly in the process, but epoxy putty used to cover it as well as sculpt the hair/helmet. Mismatched lower arm used as inspiration for paint details on body, then everything got a wash to darken and bring out details. She's an old robot =)
Problems with resin on placemat two. Try to peal it off (works on smaller pieces of polymer) but fail.

Do you love the 90mm 3.5 Great Wall lens but absolutely despise the Great Wall DF series? Fear not, friend, for a simple body cap with a hole torn in the middle, no manual skills at all and a generous amount of epoxy cement plus black paint have you covered! Shoot your lovely lens on an Exakta 66 body! If you are not rich just grab a Kiev 60 and call it a day! Oh WHAT A TIME TO BE ALIVE
