Hi, I'm new to this forum and just getting into halo armor making.
I decided to try and start small and work my way, so my first idea was to try and make a dagger. I've made the dagger out of 110 lb paper using pepakura. I'm now at the casting resin phase. I mixed equal parts of the casting resins and poured it into the dagger.
Now it has taken a very long time to dry and is still not that great. It has seeped through the paper and deformed it slightly. Trying to decide next time if I should try putting a clear coat on before I put in the casting resin? Could you use some advice on preparation before the casting resin step. Any feed back would be great.
Picture is before the casting resin was poured.
