 moment. Happy New Year's Eve, everybody. Do you guys have amazing plans? We don't yet. Move this. I don't have any plans. I'm gonna be all dressed up and nowhere to go. So welcome. Hi, I'm Erica with Artist Till Death. I have the vamp with me. Hello. Hello. Co-piloting. And the director is in this director's seat. I will show you guys close up of the director at the end of the show. And so yeah, we're Artist Till Death. We go live every day, usually at 6 p.m. except for on Tuesdays at 2 p.m., all central. But special days have special times. And if you're in our group, ATDs, poor people, then you would get a heads up. Subscribe. Sometimes YouTube gives you a heads up. Sometimes it's hit and miss. Anyways, yeah, today I'm going to be doing a test with prism poor in resin. This has been requested since prism poor came out. And I'm a healthy skeptic when it comes to mixing acrylic paint and resin. Let me just start by saying you can put acrylic paint in resin. It's not gonna explode, but it could set off your resin early. I'm hedging my bets in that I'm using art coat. It has a longer working time. It's a lot more forgiving than many resins. And yeah, we're gonna give it a shot. I am so sorry, Melissa, that you lost your friend. COVID's a beast and sending you huge hunts. And that absolutely sucks. I'm sure you're devastated, but maybe we can bring you a smile today. So I've gone ahead and mixed up my art coat. It's a one-to-one. Mix it for three minutes. Make sure there's no little fairy floss or it looks like fishing line when you mix it up. And it's not completely fully mixed together. Just make sure you have none of that. And let's get this party started. I'm using prism poor black iris, poinsettia or poinsettia. You want to be bougie. Mayan Gold and Peacock. Let me also say that I do not carry these colors. I'm not a paid sponsor of this company. I do carry some of her resin art pigments, but she's not paying me to do this review. She did send me these pigments to do the review that I didn't pay for. I have no idea how much these cost, but I'll look at that. Kim said she remembers watching you do this in your earlier videos. Susan Campbell said hello from work. I'm sleeping. Well, Susan, I want you to get in trouble, but thank you for being here. And yes, I did used to do a lot of acrylic paints in resin back in my early days. Didn't really know better. It was all I had back in my broke, super broke, super ultra broke artist days. And there's like I said, there's nothing wrong with putting acrylic paints in resin. You just have to know the parameters. The general rule of thumb is 10%. And for all of you guys that are mathematically challenged like me, 10% is a hard number to figure out. So what I just recommend people do is put a little bit at a time of color into your resin until it builds up to the shade and opacity that you want. You know, without more, you just can't take it out, obviously. So try to build it anytime, Melissa. We're family here. And if I could give you a hug in real life, I would totally do it. And apparently the color art server is down. So I can't tell you the prices, but I'm sure someone in here at some point will have purchased it and can share the wealth of knowledge. I mean, it's on Amazon too, I think. So anyway, so yeah, when you use a water-based paint and resin, resin doesn't like it. It can set off early. It can start to, if I set off early, I mean, it'll look like a volcano experiment from high school. Hey, girl, how are you doing? So you saw I only put a little bit in there is just a drop. I have a translucent shade at this point. I am definitely far, not definitely far, probably actually cutting it a little bit close because I didn't have a lot of resin in here, but you can see straight through it. So I'm not feeling a translucent. I don't want it to be translucent, so I'm adding a little bit more. It's $22.50 on Amazon for one color or for a multi-pack? $22.50 for this thing? What size is it? This is 60 mil or two ounce. Oh, okay. So for two ounce, this would not be $22 for an eight ounce version of this. This is two ounce. Then that makes more sense. All right, proceed. I'm getting a little bit more opaque, so I'm adding just a drop or two at a time to build up the depth of color. Unlike with resin pigments, if you add too much acrylic paint to it, you can't just add resin to it again to calm it down. I think I'm going to do a test also at the end of this by just adding this paint to some resin and seeing how much I can add before it will set off. Wow. Imagine it says happy new year from Australia. It's 3 a.m. here. Oh, it's 3 a.m. in Australia. Happy new year. They're in the future. All right, so now we're opaque and it hasn't set off, so cool. So yeah, at the end of this video, I'll save some resin and we'll just load it and see if it sets off because the claim is that even though it is an acrylic paint, it'll stay friendly. I said a second ago that me and Matt don't hang out a lot. Gotcha. I'm trying to be around 10% in and around the 10% number, but honestly, I'm just adding paint till it's opaque. I feel like that's what most people should do, especially if you're not Matthew. Hey, Petra. Hey, Denise. Petra's super interested in your new cell activator formula. Still translucent. This is, I'm adding. Sure. Anytime you can use something for multiple purposes. That's awesome. I just, I'm surprised I'm adding so much to get it opaque, to be honest, but it is a fluid paint. Sure, type of resin will definitely make a difference. I'm adding only a drop at a time. Don't stare at me like I'm crazy. I'm trying to get it opaque. I like opaque colors. Unless I'm working on a clear base, I want my colors to be opaque. And so I'm coming up. Yeah. So I'm like, I know for acrylics to be translucent, it's kind of crazy. This is still translucent, but I'm getting really close to the doom zone on that one. So I'm just laid off. Any other senses? Those paints are not opaque, which means you probably would never be able to get it. Oh, they're not opaque. So I probably just wouldn't be able to get them opaque. All right. Well, that's strike one then. Is it warm? I added a little bit more there because it's super translucent right now, which is fine. Love translucent colors. I just wouldn't have expected an acrylic paint to be so translucent, you know, from a cat in the house. Hello, everyone. Come here. People watching this morning. Oh, or they're all still awake in Australia. This got super gummy. Did you do just a little on this one? I'm not going to use that one. I did. Okay. Those are all ones that I fiddled with yesterday. Nope. The other day when I was doing those, the acrylic portas. So I didn't really fiddle with the purple much. I just poured it basically straight out of here. So I'm going to swap her in the house. See if this, I kind of, to be fair, I jumped the gun and put a, not a crazy squeeze in, but what would have equaled how much I put in of the gold. I don't know if there was contamination from when I used it the other day. So I'm just, now I'm going to pull colors that, that's translucent. It doesn't say on the jar translucent. So I'm using, I 100% believe Tammy, my 100% believe Tammy. But you're saying it doesn't say translucent on the bottle or package or whatever? Nothing about this is translucent. So I'm mixing it as if I'm just someone that doesn't know Tammy. I'm just at home right. Just trying to multi-purpose paint. No, it came in. It didn't come in a package. It came like shrink wrap and this. No. So still not opaque, but what else? This looks like it, my resin's been setting up for knotted for art coat. This is at least two hours. Okay. So it's already doing it too. The purple is getting gummy? Yeah. Y'all this may be a really quick test. All right. What's the color I know I didn't touch yesterday? The Auburn one. Pink. I did a pink one. I know I didn't mess with Auburn yesterday. Just one little tea time dollop. Tammy says they definitely should be used for pouring, but that's it. Well I'm gonna pour. I'm confused. She means just acrylic pouring, not pour with it. Thank you so much. Imagine. I appreciate that. You guys are amazing. All right. I'm not gonna go like full one drop, dude. Tammy says acrylic pouring that is to make you laugh, Tammy. That's what we're here for. Nothing better than laughing first thing in the morning or right before you sleep, Australia? We at 3 a.m. there. People are watching from Australia. It's 3 a.m. so they're like still awake. That's cool, huh? Future people. Dude, this is still translucent. I don't know if I want to waste any more of this paint or rubber. This is a pretty color though. Translucent. Okay. I don't want to waste any more paint. Let's review. This is not horrible. It looks like if I added one more drop it could be in a slime video. That doesn't sound like us at all. Okay. I'm gonna go get coaster so I can pour just some of the square. Got it. Yep. Yeah, the mates night ones. Okay. So what's going on here is very indicative of just grab them. I have more on order. Yeah. This is very much what happens when you mix acrylic paint, too much acrylic paint in resin. And arguably this would have worked if I just wanted a translucent pigment. And maybe that's a market she should tap into for transparent resonance, I guess. I don't know. But I know that for me, I'm putting acrylic paint in resin. It should be setting the resin off. Okay. I've made slime. It's a fun colored slime. It's got a lot of nice sparkle. But slime. I would have said corn flour, too. Okay. So just to be thorough with our test, so you don't have to. I'm gonna add alcohol to the blue and like how much alcohol? I'll add some alcohol and this will cut it a little bit. Well, in theory. No. But or opposite. Or no. Yo. Whoa. All right. So let's just wear that one. I'm trying to be thorough. Imagine says, yes, she's been out for New Year's celebration. So she's still awake. Future. Future Australia people are cool. They're already done with New Year's. I don't think alcohol is gonna work. I have read that you can. I have read that you can mix alcohol into thickening resin acrylic paint mixtures to thin them out. It says that looks like it made things worse. But in this case, I don't know why. I have no idea why it made it worse. But that's gonna, we're gonna put that over there. You're welcome. I have made these. That's a gorgeous color, by the way. Oh yeah, the peacock is beautiful. That's stunning, actually. The perfect teal, depending on your eye. People could see that as blue. People could easily see that. Who could say this is blue? Shout out to you, Judy. Did you guys know? I think she told in the group one time. Let's put some of this on there. I love the sparkle in it. I mean, it's a nice sparkle. Well, yeah, I mean, it's from Leslie. It's gonna be beautiful in terms of sparkle payoff. That looks fully New Orleans. Marty Graw. Hello. It's like so string cheesy. Wrong holiday, but hey. I guess we can put some Auburn on this one, even though it is translucent. I don't even know how these colors are gonna even live together, but we're gonna find out. Okay, Tammy says, let me sell some tea. The person who used these in the resin and claimed they worked amazing has very little resin experience. Any acrylic paint, as you know, Erica, will do this in resin. She did spill a tea. Free spirit art. That's how you're the one happy new year from Sydney, Australia. You guys are up way past your bedtime. Tammy continues with spilling the tea. She said, you can use them in resin. Yes. Sorry, I said that wrong. Can you use them in resin? Yes, but you better mix quick and you better pour quick. Yeah, I just don't see the point in that. If I'm gonna spend that much money on a paint, then just use something that's meant to be in resin and make it look like it should. I'm just trying to get something to happen. I'm not expecting a bunch of cells because why would it? I got a chunk of paint in there. Oh yeah, the purple one. Little chunkies. Colors gorgeous, yes. Did you ever put this in resin? Dudes, I don't know that I would. I mean, like you said, sure, you can put it in resin and you can pour real quick, but why? Why, though? Because if you use a resin pigment, then you have the opportunity, depending on your resin, to use it for maybe two hours. Well, yeah, well, so the resin I'm using is a two-hour working-time resin. So it should not be this thick. It's not warm like a lot of times when acrylic paint sits off resin, but it's got the effects of if it were to be heating up. Also, I wouldn't recommend swiping with transparent, because reasons, because I try to find some positive. I don't know if people can hear me, so you'll have to repeat. Can you guys hear VAMP? Stephanie said, thanks for doing the test, so you don't have to. I am happy to do the test for you guys. They probably would look cool on clear coasters, but I wouldn't use all Hushelm mouth. It's not my fault. I do like these colors together, though. I could see myself doing a fall pour with this. Yeah, she's okay. Ask them if they can hear you. Can you hear me better now? Can you hear me now? I do not miss those commercials. Free Spirit said, it almost looked like a flying dragon. Okay, they can hear me. All right. So I'm always trying to find the positive in everything. So what I just thought of, that this could actually work and be a very positive thing with it setting off the resin, this could work really well. Do you want to translate something, Geo? Because, well, this like right here, that's real thick right there. And if you add a color underneath, like she said, like have a white background, right? So if you were doing a Geo and you were setting your resin off that quick, that could actually work because then your lines wouldn't flow so much necessarily together. Do you see what I'm saying? Sure. So let's just test that though. I'm trying to come up with a positive. Sure. So let's put some of this down and see how it. I am out now. See how it dries? Okay, so we got some of the gum on this one and we'll see how it how it cures, right? Okay, I don't have to do the last test that I told you I was going to do about seeing if it would, if any amount would set it off because to be also fair, this isn't the worst set off I've ever seen. I have seen it where it like it starts to smoke and bubble up out. I'm not saying that it won't happen if I put enough paint in here, but I'm, I don't know if I feel like doing that. Have you guys seen those commercials of people taking marshmallow fluff? It's about to get sticky by its only. You look like Mrs. Spider-Man. I've seen people do this with marshmallows on videos, so maybe there is a good reason for it. If you wanted to make spider webs, I don't know how this is going to dry though. Does it look like it's me? I'm sure if I heated it up. Well, I don't know because it didn't thin with alcohol. Before anyone coins this, I'm calling this stretch resin. All right, you heard it here first. Let's redo your, how to stretch resin. Blossing technique. That's what's never mind. Where's that? Okay. So, okay, hold on. Okay. No, I'm just going to use one of these. I'm just trying to move everything out of the way. I'm going to put some darker acrylic paint in there. Y'all, this is fun, but it's getting everywhere. Let, look, look. It's literally like I have a marshmallow fluff on my hands. Sweet, he's in the house. Did it with fire or pop bubbles? Let it happen. It's very messy. Don't, it will get on you. Ew, appropriate. So now it's a gross dark gray color, but I just wanted to darken it so I could see it work better. Okay. Actually, this is a technique that some of us use on countertops. Like when it, the drip's coming up. He's pinched it in between his fingers. No one stretched their resin. I've got to see it. He has taken it with his hand, grabbed it, and just like streamed it. Yeah. Stop bringing on my parade. This is called resin floss or stretched resin. I'm over here being ingenuitive. I was told to try it in resin because it's okay to use in resin. I'm told. However, I don't think so. Resin for multi-surface acrylic paint, canvas wood, metal, glass. Made in the U.S. Don't add little or darn curtain. Nowhere does it say use in resin. Best results if you finish it with a varnish or an epoxy top coat, but nowhere does it say use in resin. Well, I listen. If she sent it to me, she wants me to put it in resin. Sure, but I'm just piggybacking on what you said. If she, by trial, said she didn't see the very beginning. So what? These are prism pour and they are acrylic paints and you can use them for acrylic pours, but they were sent to me. So why would someone send it to me unless they wanted it put in resin? This is so Halloweeny. I love it. I'm all about this. This is so cool looking. And if you really just had started like at a corner and did, I mean, that's very, what's that, spider? Or spider? The banana spider? Yeah, they make the most beautiful. I love it. I'm just gonna see how it cures. It's all right. Still looks cool. Now that part looks like a monarch butterfly. This really works for, for like spider wet. You need to like pattern this resin webbing. What do you guys think of my, what should we call it? Resin string cheese, stretching resin, resin webbing, resin webbing, um, or stretching, or stretching resin. I think Bowie wants down. Do you think that's what he's yelling about? Yes, resin webbing, Tammy Anderson. Pre spirits that I honestly love that. Pre spirits like resin webbing. Resin webbing it is. You guys saw it here first. Tell your, tell your everybody's. Stephanie says resin webbing. JJ in the house. Good morning JJ. Melissa said, I think it's downright amazing and beautiful. That's pretty awesome. I don't even, you can't get those thin lines like that. No, you can't get thin lines like that anywhere else. No, like that. It's impossible to get lines that thin and they're not moving. So awesome. So the next test is different acrylics. See if it does this. Well, you know how we used to say it turns into marshmallow fluff? That's literally where I got this technique is from watching someone stretch marshmallow fluff. For be great on 3D objects, right? Spider web skull. That's all you do. Could be also cool for a geode for sure. But you can't get lines that thin. No. I just like web. That is awesome. And this word. I mean, even she, like she yields. Depending on how you did it, you need to get those. Never. That final one, you, you just can't get that final line. Fine. Of a line. This just goes to show you guys. Tonic redhead said, I just got here. Whatever this is, I love it. Everyone wanted to say good morning. They have morning. Imagine said very creative. He says that would be really cool on the countertop. Robert said, if you tried using a coin, you might get some interesting effects. Oh, like coming through this or I think maybe put it all in the coin. So you got a bunch of. Maybe. Might have to be. Oh, this is Spider-Man, Spider-Man Redman. Okay. Now we're loaded. Let's. Stamp. You didn't tell me. Okay. Out of the nail. But then you wouldn't get them. Very. This actually is taking a lot of. This isn't easy is what I'm trying to say. Like there is some skill to what you're doing, even though it seems like you're just swapping. Rhonda needs to see this. Right. Tiger. Tell her to get a lazy bone. I'm telling you. And it's not like it's not moving. Mm-hmm. Oh, I could sew spiders. Because I'm here to inspire you, Vamp. Listen, beauty comes from mistakes. This may be the new, like, oh my God, so satisfying video. I can't stop. I just want to see how far I can go with it. Like I haven't redid my fingers yet. Yeah. I mean, the lines are getting thinner, but I'm okay with it because the thinner lines look super cool. Dad, gamut. That is what I call sticky. You got to come see my sticky mistake. It got sticky and I was like, I bet I could stretch that. JJ is about to go pick up his 3D printer. Great, JJ. All right. I do. Right. Do you want anything on 7-Eleven? I didn't use up your product. No waste. Waste not want not. Never waste. Always try new techniques because you find things like this. I'm now everyone of the best. Dude. Okay. Hear me out. Yeah. When I was doing the laboratory piece, I couldn't figure out how to get the lines. Now you figured it out. Yo, Christina Brinley. You ever used to call it marshmallow fluff? It's set up in like... You got to be careful with it because the lines are very gummy, so it will pick up and drag. So I'm trying to kind of drag back through so I don't have just a whole bunch of randomness. It's 4.10 a.m. She's finally going to bed. Happy New Year. Happy New Year. Barbara, so thank you for doing that. Likes the effects. My pleasure. And this is very Halloween slash Tim Burton now. This is very Tim Burton as that. Which is amazing. Now we're about to have to go. It would be harder on larger piece. Yeah. That's what it would. I mean, I could do it on a skull. Welcome. Being on a commission, you got to wait because I have to do a spider web skull now. Yeah. I'm going to switch clothes. This is too sticky icky. I think that would look amazing. Don't forget to tag people that you found it here first. If you like wrecked pores. I am not mad at it at all. Evelyn said give me that. I looked it. It's mine. So yeah, super fun, super awesome. I was about to tell you guys to not even bother with this all of this business in resin. But if you're going for, if you want to make marshmallow fluff so that you can do our new resin webbing, then that's when acrylic paint is good. Well, the other acrylic paint kind of turned marshmallow-y and then bubbled up and set off. It like went too quick. So I will say that this gives you a longer working. Well, it could be the resin too because back when I did that I was using in biotech. So I don't know. Yeah. But I know that this works. Of course you can take it home to do its goal. And if you guys give it a shot, tell people you saw it here first. So yeah, you guys have an awesome and safe New Year's. We love you guys so much. Thank you for making our year amazing. We are still having a sale on our website for 15% off in our resin shop. ArtistsTillDeath.com use code New Year for 15% off. And yeah, you guys have been amazing. Happy New Year. Be safe. Be kind of one another because you never know what someone's going through. I only remember here at ATV Studio in Dallas, Texas, in the year 1922 now. Almost. So you don't have to. All right. Now you guys have to see the director. That's the guy that does everything behind the scenes. His little belly pants. His little tiny belly pants. He does everything behind the scenes. I'm glad we could help a little bit, Melissa. He does everything behind the scenes. I hope you're doing it better, Melissa. So yeah, you all have an awesome day. And we'll see you guys probably not tomorrow because I probably won't get out of bed. But who knows? We'll post if we can. You all have an awesome night. Bye. I said bye.
