My Process:
While the plastic is full sized, I will hand draw the outline for the wing. Then using a mixture of mica powders and glitters I create the color. After this, I will shrink the plastic, and then seal it with resin.
Shrink plastic is a versatile and dynamic material celebrated for its transformative properties. This unique plastic begins as a thin, flexible sheet that can be easily colored, stamped, or drawn upon. When exposed to heat, it shrinks in size while simultaneously thickening, creating a dense, sturdy piece suitable for a variety of crafts. Ideal for creating charms, jewelry, ornaments, and more, shrink plastic opens a world of artistic possibilities. Its lightweight nature and durability make it a favored choice for both amateur and seasoned crafters.
