I'm going to be building up layers of UV resin as a sludge pit. I may be adding some bones as well.
How do you contain the UV resin to get it shaped before hitting it with a light?
My attempts have not been ideal.

As I do resin casting (dice, etc), I have silicone mats. I have cut a strip to temporarily affix around the base as a dam.
Mind you, these will be done as many thin layers.
That sounds more successful than trying to closely adhere plasticard or acrylic sheets to make a container.
I'm happy with it.
Great shape on the resin yeah. It looks gross.
Thanks!
Here is the silicone dam in action. The UV resin will hold it in place until I remove it.
I'm very intrigued by the model itself; is it a custom creation? Parts from different models? I'm not well versed in Warhammer lore, but I'm digging whatever this is.
edit: I found your post about the model. Love it! [WIP] Huntsman for Death Guard army
