How do I shape resin?

I'm making a site Specific for an assignment. The theme is Death, but not seen as something sad, dark, scary or chasing, more like something purifiing, gentle, something desired even like in Friedrich's Ophelia.

The pressence of water is something really, really important in the sculpture but also is the expresivity of the materials, specially the cloth. The strucgure is made out of cardboard pipes.

The thing is I wanna use epoxy resin to shape cloth and make it look like it's wet, so I can have the expresivity of the cloth and the pressence of water. It went well on the trials but I'm finding it very difficult to shape the cloth in the way I want in such a big thing. I can't find someone on youtube that had used this technique in something so big, apparently it was a trend on tiktok to make yourself a wet t-shirt using resin but nothing as big as my sculpture.

The structure is a little more than 2 meters tall (6.7 😔 foot) and my Santa's little helper and I are way shorter than that (1'50 and 1'60 // 4.9 and 5.2) so I don't have a fun time trying to shape it.

Has anybody done it before? Do you have any idea even?

What does my Cerura Iberica eat?

I was walking to the bus stop and found a moth on the ground, I decided I'm taking her home so nobody steps on her (IDK if it's a male or a female but she's the color of snow and I wanna name her after it so I asigned her a gender). I've made her a temporary cage out of paper and done my research about her wellbeing, she seems right but she can't fly because it's been cold and rainy lately...

I'm keeping her until the rain stops but I'm concerned about what she eats. What can I feed her?

PHOTO: This is her (It looks like she haves no antenae but she's just hiding her head and antenae under her torso) Her name is Neva and I found her on Galicia.
