Resins | Model Water For Miniatures

Model resins are used to create realistic water, ice, glass, and other transparent effects in dioramas, terrain, and scale models. They can also be used for casting parts and creating custom scenic elements.

Pour tinted or clear resin into the desired area in thin layers, allowing each layer to partially cure before adding the next. Surface ripples and foam can be added with texture products while the resin is still tacky.

Resins should be used in well-ventilated areas with appropriate protective equipment including gloves and eye protection. Always follow manufacturer safety guidelines.

Cure times vary by product, typically ranging from several hours to 24 hours for a full cure. Always allow the full recommended cure time before handling or adding additional layers.
