Resin - Glitter 5

I really like the powder mica and leaf flecks. 

Resin - Glitter 3

357th day of 2021.

So far the testing I have done, not really sure whether it is due to faulty UV resin, but it seemed to be harder to dry for thick layer, even after put under UV light for 15 minutes. Resin layer is just 3~4mm.

Resin - Glitter 2

356th day of 2021.

The edges of resin is difficult to dry nicely.

Resin - Glitter 1

355th day of 2021.

Had been buying resin supplies since and tested the difference of UV resin and epoxy resin. I have bad experience with UV resin on the second batch, suspecting mainly due to old stock.

Use some cheap craft paper and test out the different way of flap over.

Planner - Envelope 1

Was planning to re-do the accessories card for the leather cover planner. Last time did a eyelet closure, this round figure to use a simple fold tuck in.

I am not really sure what to make out of this. This is a vector based programme, doesn't speak to me intuitively.

2022 Planner - 5

351st day of 2021.

Done a page for Cover, personal info and topic based log with year divided in quarters/season then month.

Chart Type 2

350th day of 2021.

Circular ones are harder to achieved in a grid layout. It is not easy to provide a template for circle based diagram.

Chart Type 1

349th day of 2021.

Figuring out what other charts or diagram that can be use to explore other planner formats.

Paint 3D 2

348th day of 2021.

Pretty basic painting tools, control still fine.

It has some amazing 3D support and AR support, which is fun.

Not really up to what I wish in terms of painting.

Paint 3D 1

347th day of 2021.

This had been in my surface pro for a while, first time trying it out to see whether it can serve to be art journal.

Midori's minimalist layout design is very clean. 

Planner Layout - 04

338th day of 2021.

Kokuyo had similar design carried over to day pages.

Again, Japan have very distinct layout design which is very interesting.

Started off with Hobonichi.
