 Why does this look so sketchy? Like that looks so weird, but what's up everybody I'm Erika Jeff. It's behind the camera and today I'm gonna try a chain pull. I know it's like an old thing, but It's also under with chameleons and made it look like coral with acrylic and now I'm like I don't know if I can do that, but I'm gonna attempt to do that so To do this, I'm using some pigments from one of our viewers in cats or cat design And I'm super excited. This one's name is Nila bug Well, I guess I should put resin in my cups Does this look dirty? I'm not sure 100% how much was not in need for each of these, but we're just gonna wing it. Okay, la la bug So this looks a lot like Dalmatian obsession But it's not However, I've used cats colors before and she's Got some awesome colors. You obviously can't tell chameleon just like that You got to wait till it's on a base and I've been informed from in cats that you don't need a lot So I'm just gonna put a Little bit in there Ultimately with chameleons you get a better color flop payoff when You can see the black a little bit and you don't overload your colors I think this is a pink and green flip Which I don't know that I've ever seen a pink green flip Sweet off to a good start the next one is Nila bug first one is la la bug This one is Nila bug It appears to be a violet interference, but it is a chameleon So obviously the main color is gonna be violet But I don't know what color it flops to we're about to find out you seem to melt into resin pretty well This is a blue I think a blue-purple kind of a little bit We're getting a light it may be purple green or purple blue Party light Was okay from Indirect it may work really good Maybe purple green The next one we're going to mix up is Rafi bug we got a lot of bugs Anytime I open a powder out of a jar I tap the lid because I don't want it all up in the face I have about How much is a Dixie cup three ounces? So I have about an ounce of resin maybe a little bit more at each one of the cups This seems to be a red purple This is a gold. Why don't you see the gold till I looked in the camera? the next one is Spring bug Spring bugs the main color I think is blue, but could be violet You can see that Kind of yeah, I think the main colors blue look the same. I think this one may be my favorite one Just looking at it in the light. And so the last one is a Katzen bug And it's the only one of the one she sent me that is like an orange base Other ones are like white base This looks like a gold green, but Who knows It is a gold Right first things first I'm doing a black background and I'm doing black because I want the black to create kind of a shadow in My chain poles. I'm hoping it doesn't muddy my colors White possible or maybe even probable that it will and if that's the case I will just add more colorant and just make my Chameleons more opaque even though I wonder if that will Make them less Chameleon e color changing. I don't know. We'll do the test so you don't have to so So there Let's switch. Hope you guys have had an awesome week We certainly have Let's just put that in the wrong Resin have you guys ever done that? It can't be the only one Okie-dokie Got to get this show on the rope. It's gonna look awesome. You guys are gonna love it These are all things that I hope It's my affirmation I guess for the moment The black that I'm using is just resin black. It is true Black is not an interference. It's not a shimmer. It's not a sparkle. It's not a metallic. It's just regular Solid black This is like the point where I get nervous because I'm like this thing you're gonna be super awesome Or it's gonna be super not That's kind of all it can be right Yeah Okay, I'm gonna try to get all of the black off of my fingers so that I don't transfer it to my Chains for my chain pull now. I'm using old Marguerite grass beads Can break those You can break those. I'm gonna cut this one standard Chain into three. I'm not hitting anything with heat right now because It is my opinion thesis Thought process that the thinner your resin is the more likely it is you're gonna get mud So it probably even would be beneficial to let Your everything set up a bit set up a bit So that it's thicker and less fluid the more fluid it is in my opinion in my head The least likely this is to work, but that's what we're here for us to figure it out, right? So putting this green thing in here made it look green does it look green to you? I don't know if it what if everything in here started green But now it reads it green. Okay So I'm gonna try to do the coral thing. I'm gonna turn this light out. I think it's just You can see the reflection It may be working if those like Little It's gonna get here here. It's gonna get here You're gonna put that in there and all that paint all that black resin's gonna get in your cup I'm just gonna get some new ones I don't know which one that was that I just put down I should have read the names on the cups Oh, if it's better to have a lot of paint on there or not You know what? I think I need like just a cup of alcohol to top my goes Pretty nice looking chameleon if I do say so myself I'm gonna have a steak in this. I'm just lady trying to read these Do this next one My head is still gonna look amazing. It's working For the most part so far I'm quite sure if I like double dipped some of these chains It would give me an issue, right? Think I don't know. I don't know. Do it. Do a negative do a negative part like run the chain like just on the outside of these Okay, look how that picture was. Let me do this one real quick. Okay. So you want me to? Yeah, do like a just kind of run it just don't touch them but just kind of run it Let's do one right here to where you can get a couple different little Okay, flares well, so I think my chain needs to be a longer I guess when people do this with acrylics, they can just wipe it off. You don't have to worry about Paint transfers or it's easier to wipe it off. I don't know if I should have put those so close together Let's call it. They're quite similar I need to get a bigger Dick It's crazy how you can Move around it and it all just changes colors Can't help but love chameleons They're stinking beads And just a little bit of time in that alcohol has made these beads silver so Just the wipe them because it's gonna that's gonna get in your resin I fully just took all the green off And for my next trick Silver Okay, be you wanted me to follow this line and go that way. Yeah does not how it looked Yeah, she had it like But they were all they were like touching. I know but she was doing that on the inside of them Oh They have to go the same way But so what you're saying And how she was doing it was going like on the inside of this And he had way more control Well, the beads are probably a little or two Should I try it with one of your little t-tiny chains? I don't think it would only it would work with this resin being so thin Yeah, I don't think so either The only thing about these kind of I should have wrote down the color it was because I wouldn't have put them I would have interchanged them a little bit, you know But it's okay. I'll just put one that reads more purple over the top of one of them I don't think the color is coming off onto the board and if it did you wouldn't be able to see it because it's It's probably translucent Remember this is black resin down here You gotta say it's 45 people in here and only 21 thumbs up come on You guys can do better than that It's friday You know, do you want to We're gonna go see my parents tomorrow And would you talk kansas G nails good day mate Good day That's the same color as that one I need to really study how like the direction of hold them to get them to do what I want them to look like Also that green fully came off into that color Cold in Tasmania Somebody is from Tasmania That's so cool You guys when I move this camera, does it look glitchy? On my end it looks glitchy That's so weird. I don't know I don't know what the deal is blurry I fully thought that was gonna be one of the green ones before I laid that down Finally not all beads are making you christy because this is still That's weird. I don't even know if this one That's green. Oh no because the pink came off. This one's purple Yeah, the the paint is coming off into the resin 50 people in Welcome everybody I'm jeff. This is erica We are artists of death if you're new welcome welcome welcome um, and if you're new Um, or a long time follower Please let us know where you're, uh watching from And uh How is your friday so far? I wish the edges were more scalloped, but The inside texture seems to be staying pretty well Gorgeous this this would be perfect for my granddaughter's room Well, you can buy this one or I will help you to make your own Here or you So this essentially is going to be layer one and then we're going to paint over it. Maybe some fish Ohio Hill country, texas Amsterdam, what? Is this one really? It's purple I'm gonna do this one for down at the bottom Brisbane Joella I'm watching from arizona I used to live in arizona I'm trying to scrape off as much black resin as I can black butterfly designs From new york. Thank you You tall? Subchain Subchain I heard subchain Well in-cats isn't in here today, but i'm gonna have to tell her that her pigments are pretty exciting I if she was here, I'd be able to tell you where to get them from but she comes in southern, ohio welcome florida Like once a week Which one was purple? I think this one the green Yeah, I think you're right It's hard to say because colors keep switching and I got green dye in some of these because cheap party beads Western australia Emma If we did another australian tour would you guys come to it? I know we need to get Just resin on that Okay, okay. The tip was wiggling too fast. I wanted one more little It looks great. I wish I thought more about This I was just so ready to get one down and see if it worked that I didn't think about The flow of the outer edge This one, okay, I think it's like this color. Yeah, right here. Oh, it's already there. You already got it on that side So then do this bluish color Which one is on Maybe this one I don't know. What about that gold? Oh, you already used the gold That one I think is the first one Oh, I think this one's the purple Put it where it's gonna go Where do you want me? Yeah, just kind of line it up and then pull it so it goes into that And then all this will be connected Okay, can you say that again? I wasn't looking Put it right here. We did that line do like a loop Mm-hmm And then just pull it so it all kind of connects I'm trying to also run off some of The resin because I'm noticing if I don't do this then the edge isn't scalloped. It's more blobby Technical term in nail said I would love to meet you guys I definitely come You would be surprised how much Erica and I are alike. We have the same dog You have pom pom, baby Just pull out and then maybe try to pull it back this way. Okay, I gotcha. I mean it looks good mighty tiny chains If you guys give me a second, I'll look on facebook and find um The acrylic artist that inspired me to do this freezing my head off Too green. Which one was the one that Isn't there a blue? I just did the blue one. You just did the blue Let me put some of that purple in the gold That the this one is this color Yeah, I don't have it down there. I don't think This isn't crazy on your brain The one that is showing green resin because the green came off of my beads stinking beads That's supposed to look Red is actually white and the interference that I'm seeing on it Just on the beads is purple, but when it's down it looks red So You're starting I just want to add something here That is the same color, but that looks good though That looks real good So I would do I would do one more Like Lip it and then drag it right there All right, there's probably no way to go back in and do one like No Okay, so then for here This turned out way better than I thought it would do that purple over here Okay, so that's this can I see the color check when I do this? Kind of so which one of these is your favorite of the chameleons tell me what color it is Or what color you see that it is You want me to go weird? Above it below it Yeah, just it's just there's just a big gap right there. So yeah Yeah, put one. Yeah, there you go That looked nice. Yeah, perfect I can't wait to finish up this piece and put like Little fishy fish I'm super pumped. Okay. Now I have to hit it with just a wee bit of heat Are these interference pigments? Are these interference? Yeah, somebody just hopped on. No, these ones are actually chameleon and the differences Yeah, I wouldn't hit too much because that'll So the difference is with an interference We're talking about A color that shines a different color. So all the interferences that I was using for my opal onyx They didn't change color. They were a white powder that Once the light hits it in a certain direction showed purple Gold green blue or red, right? And so you can add those to other colors And have a solid color with this color interference. For example ATV fireball is a red pace with a gold interference So it shows red and when the light hits it, you're going to see a gold shine What a chameleon is is it will change colors completely. You won't see a color that also shows another color You will see a color and then a fully different color So that's why you're seeing on this one when you walk around. It's just all the light It fully changes color. Hold on y'all. I'm gonna try to clean this I feel like it's just dirty or something. I don't know. Maybe it's just all the light I hope that didn't just sound like rambling and that made some kind of sense. It wouldn't have looked like this really without The black background. I'm gonna say tell your cat I said She was just walking back there. I'm not gonna do too much torching I don't want it to move and the more you torch The more fluid your resin will be and the more things are gonna move. So I'm going to Yeah, I would just Set it and forget it I'm gonna try to put some resin on outside You can spray paint that black Put it in the refrigerator Excuse me, what? Evelyn so I might just stop she's right there. I have to get to the dust free zone See you tg What do you guys think of this? I made these yesterday I wanted it to look like A shadow Was behind the neon. Would you guys want to uh Want to see a video of how I did this or actually do it I did that with spray paint I'm gonna do a bigger one so I can do a little bit more detail Make the actual neon a little bit more defined instead of just glowing I think you're the fun Most of the edges are covered when we spray paint it. It's gonna be shiny edges For here Did they say which color they like the best? Thanks y'all They like all the color The special thanks to mcats for sending me these awesome chameleons to test out for you guys Next time she hops into live feed.
