Class Overview

In this class, we will look at how I manipulated the resin to create the overall look.

The shape wasn't looking quite right for the lamp, so with a bit of tweaking and pulling, I was able to save the resin and get it looking as I originally planned.

This class will show the processes I used to fix the issues.
