Hey guys! So after a lot of work essentially starting over from scratch, CHUNK 2 IS IN RESIN i repeat CHUNK 2 IS IN RESIN. We actually got him in there before we left for TwitchCon. We did a bunch of things differently this time around to keep Chunk 2 cooler (lowered the fridge temp, inserted a pre-cured resin column to offset the total resin we needed to use in the big pour, and filled the fridge with water to keep it cooler).
To rewind for a sec, back to the morning after resining Chunk 1, we checked in on him and he was getting warpy already (not to mention the bubbles releasing from him!). Iβll include a photo for reference:

And guess what⦠we checked in on Chunk 2 the morning after his resining, and he was still looking perfect! No bubbles! No warping! He was a beautiful boy!

But then we got back from TwitchCon and demolded him and he looksβ¦ quite different now. Itβs like he pulled away from the resin since it cured more slowly or something, giving him a ghostly sheen. We still need to do a final coat of resin on him to clear him up, letβs hope he looks ok!
