/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

Polyester resin gull coming at you with some findings from an experiment.
Alcohol inks don't work - I saw a tutorial which used sharpie inks to colour resin to create fake coffee/tea and tried to recreate that. It looked identical (dark, couldn't see the bottom of the cup) when I left it but came back to find it had turned lighter and a different colour with interesting patterns inside. In the end I used it since it was for a Rem cosplay so unrealistic beverages in their world isn't unlikely but I thought I'd share what happened for future references.
