They can’t all be winners, so I thought I’d show off the failed island diorama I was working on.

I tried putting some blue ink into into pour resin to tint it and due to bad technique ended up with a lot of cloudy swirling. Might look good otherwise but not the look I was going for. There were also some resin curing issues between layers.

This diorama is trashed but I thought I could show it to the world.

Turn it into ice! Make it a winter diorama!

Oh nice idea. Being creative when a project goes off the rails is a powerful thing.

The ice thing popped into my mind as well!

Looks cool, you shouldn't be too harsh on yourself

I like it. It's like islands in the clouds.

Here I'm thinking that one flying level from SM64

That is what we are.

I just got the Dredge: the pale reach add on and this beauty fits right in. I like it, it looks chilly and grim.

It seems to be a commentary on capitalism.

More seriously: you see a failed diorama, I see a work that I can't / don't know how to achieve by myself. I see something I like.

(Also, hexagons need more recognition)
