A creator on Twitter, inspired by a glass artist's underwater scene encased in glass, attempts to replicate the effect by hollowing out a rock and filling it with resin to create an underwater scene. The process involves drilling, carving, baking polymer clay elements, painting tiny fish and corals, and assembling them inside the hollow rock. The project is completed by pouring resin into the rock to encapsulate the scene. Alongside the craft tutorial, the creator shares personal reflections on mental health and promotes therapy service BetterHelp.
Here are the key facts extracted from the text:
1. A glass artist created an underwater scene inside a hollowed-out rock made entirely of glass.
2. The creator aims to make something similar but with an actual rock and resin.
3. A diamond-tipped hole saw was used to hollow out the rock.
4. The hollowed rock is significantly lighter and can float.
5. Real sand from Destin, Florida, and Nairn, Scotland, will be used in the project.
6. Polymer clay adhesive is applied before adding polymer clay to ensure it sticks.
7. Various coral and sea life shapes are sculpted from polymer clay and baked.
8. The creator has previously struggled with anxiety/panic disorder and regrets not addressing it sooner.
9. BetterHelp is sponsoring the video, offering therapy services.
10. The project involves painting tiny fish sculptures and gluing them onto clear acrylic rods to simulate swimming.
11. A clear resin is used to encase the underwater scene within the rock.
