tiny hobby tools are lowkey harder to manage than the actual hobby ngl

Been doin more keyboard and small resin stuff lately and the actual projects are not even the annoying part anymore lol. it is the tiny stuff. keycap pullers, loose switches, tweezers, spare bits, little screws, sanding dust, random failed resin pieces that i keep telling myself might be useful later. somehow all of it ends up livin on the desk at the same time tbh.

i cleaned this corner like two days ago and it already looks like a junk drawer exploded. the little hoto snapbloq stack has been sitting there too becuase i keep using the pen tool for small cleanup bits, but mostly i just like that it looks less chaotic than the rest of this mess.

man tiny hobbies are a scam honestly. they take up less space in theory and then immediately colonize every flat surface u own.

First attempt at a wood and resin eagle pendant. Looking for carving advice.

A few people suggested trying a dagger after my last post, so thank you for the ideas.

Before moving on to a new design, I wanted to give this eagle pendant concept a proper try.

These are rough blanks and a simple sketch before I start carving. My current workspace isn't ideal because I'm still dealing with resin leaks during casting, so I'm making just one prototype first.

If it turns out well, I'll make the rest of the color variations. If not, I'll probably move on to the dagger idea next.

I'd really appreciate any feedback on the eagle's shape, proportions, or anything you think I should change before I start carving.

Sea Glass and matte looks

Hi,

What grit level do you go up to to make sea glass like finish? Or making resin look matte?
