Been mostly experimenting with water effect, trying to get a good base glow effect for the led. First one looks pretty good on it's own, however due to how I built it the led doesn't fit inside and the water effect paste is too too built up to illuminate. So I am trying out handmade plastic cones and coating them. Hopefully there is enough space inside for the led. Mini is washed and ready for base coat of gesso. #failfast #grimlight #vallejowatereffects #miniatures #mierceminiatures #wip https://www.instagram.com/p/B1XkhfGBsGd/?igshid=1geklijx8jd50

"Ok. What the heck is that" I am sure you might be asking. I have cut out some plastic pieces to act as a frame. Then I am covering them in Vallejo water effect (the white goop). That dries crystal clear and hopefully will look like raw power once the led shines under it. Experimentation! Then some epoxy putty to fill some gaps and reinforce the breaks I repaired. Once that dries, onto the cleaning with dish soap and the base coat. #wip #miniatures #mierceminiatures #vallejowatereffects #erain https://www.instagram.com/p/B1NReIDh-MV/?igshid=hihszp6vfh4f

Progress! At least glued together. Drilled two holes, one for each led from the grimlight. Next steps will be to fill the gaps with epoxy putty, then reattach a couple of branches that broke off when I removed the resin fire that was a part of the left hand. See the hold there now? An led will be there lighting up water effect gel, hopefully to create a magic glow effect. Time will tell. #grimlight #mierceminiatures #erain #vallejowatereffects #miniatures #wip #failbig https://www.instagram.com/p/B1Kn9GTBy0n/?igshid=4r6m3et7eik4
