I made a blue variant also, but I think the green came out better.![](https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/19a6fc00-d7a7-416c-950a-aaf82ac81bdb.jpeg)
The green definitely came out better, though I think the blue could come out just as good too if it had the same transparency(?) to it? You probably already have an idea of what you'd do different next time, if I had to guess
Yep. The blue mica powder isn't as sparkly as the green. The next blank I make with blue will need more blue powder and probably a dash of silver to bring out the same "crystal" effect that the green one has.
Ohh, I bet one blue line and one green line would look amazing!
You could probably carve the wood to leave a wavy edge on the epoxy too!
Thank you! That's actually on my list to try next.
