Crackle Urchin Bowl



Exciting news with Kroma Crackle Gel!

Test:
Can the crackle shape be controlled in a bowl shape & forced to dry thicker so deeper lines will appear?

Answer:
Yes! With less than 1/4 inch depth so far. Exciting relief lines show after 2 days & 2 nights. But only I know the secret to getting them this deep so far that I know.

This test was made with a bowl shape of solid acrylic paint, then the Kroma gel with bright pink glow paint added a little less than 1/4 inch in a controlled shape to see if the lines would crack deeper with the intent of making a cool lizard skin in mind later. After a few days, more excitement appears. And the cool thing is this also glows under blacklight…


Next Test: How thick can the crackle go?


More testing.............
