Bubbles/Pulling Up UV Resin While Curing
Hello, I'm very new to resin overall, just using it for miniatures usually. However, I am doing a cosplay soon for a convention and wanted to create the shown hair piece, with the middle filled in with resin to look like glass overtop.
As you can see, I have a few attempts. Originally, I think I cured the resin too quickly/while it was too warm and it cracked. My second attempt I thought was due to curing it too quickly, but I cured my third attempt very slowly over the course of 10-15 minutes and it still has minor imperfections. All these developed during curing, after I had let it sit to cool and teased any bubbles from within.
I am not knowledgeable enough to know what the issue is, or even identify if this is bubbling or pulling away due to shrinking based on research, so I figured I'd ask here! Does anyone know what is causing the resin to not evenly fill? Is it just pulling away from the paint beneath?
Luckily, I am satisfied with the final result, so it's no issue, but I'd just like to know for future reference. Thank you all!
