Steering Wheel Resin Koi Artwork

Descripción de la oferta
I would like to create a sculptural slice of a steering wheel—just the top arc—cast in crystal-clear epoxy resin with vibrant red plastic koi fish gracefully “swimming” inside. The piece should keep to a standard steering-wheel diameter so it feels instantly recognisable, yet serve purely as art rather than a functional wheel. Here’s where I need help: • Concept refinement and a simple visual mock-up so we can confirm proportions and koi placement before any mould work begins. • Guidance (or hands-on execution) in building a reliable mould for only the upper semicircle, ensuring the curve and spoke ends line up cleanly. • Advice on sourcing or custom-shaping small red plastic koi that will read well once encapsulated; I’m open to slight adjustments in pose or scale to avoid bubbles. • Complete resin workflow—mix ratios, degassing, staged pours, and polishing—to achieve a flawless glossy finish with zero cloudiness. • Any finishing tricks for a smooth, high-gloss surface that still lets viewers see the koi from every angle. I’m comfortable handling basic supplies but will happily defer to your preferred brands or techniques if they guarantee clarity and durability. Final deliverables can be digital (design files, step-by-step guide, material list) or a physical prototype shipped to me—let’s discuss what’s practical based on your set-up. If you have experience with clear casting, aquarium-style art, or automotive replicas, I’m all ears. Looking forward to collaborating and learning through the process while bringing this koi-filled wheel segment to life.
