I decided I wanted something colorfully Satanic this Halloween, and obviously, my mind sprang straight to the most obvious solution: Pride Pentagram! I mean for the alliteration alone this seems a worthy Halloween project.
Here's the finished product:
The 3D print for this piece is available on MakerWorld. Drop me a line if you stumble across this page and don't have access to the design. I'll be happy to send it your way!
But how to get the shiny, shiny color? Now there are a million ways you could do this, but I decided to use pouring resin and a few dollops of acrylic paint. Just pour out a thimbleful of resin and stir in a tiny bit of paint. Stir thoroughly! Then carefully pour each color into each well. Pro-tip - you can dollop the resin more accurately if you use a popsicle stick split lengthwise.
Here's the acrylic paint I opted for. (But honestly, any bright acrylic paint will work.)
Now the groovy silver finish is entirely optional, but if you're keen go grab yourself some of this miraculous stuff: Rub n Buff Wax Metallic Finish. Just rub it on with a sponge or paper towel. Only use the tiniest amount! This amazing goop goes a looong way and one tube will last you forever.
I hope you enjoy this festive project and if you do, fancy buying me a cup o' coffee?
I'd appreciate it!
