I am not sure what is the issue if you see the pigment is not sticking to the wood can you please let me know where i am going wrong. I tried second layer it is the same

Hi guys , did you had problem with bubbles that appear after you pass with the hot gun ?

Ok I have tried to create ocean waves a few times now and they all end up looking like the first image. I have tried leaving the white to thicken for varying amounts of time but not much difference. I am wondering if it is the tool I'm using to blow the waves - I just have a basic hair dryer. Would that be the issue maybe? Also, randomly after one ocean attempt I had left over white and blue resin so I marbled it together on a test piece of wood and it looked like cells were started to form! I'm just a bit confused at this point. Any advice would be much appreciated :)

After watching many videos and following this awesome course i finally gave it a go. It is not easy to get nice waves with great cells but i will keep trying 😁🌊 I have trouble pushing the waves with my heat gun it looks like it's not pushing hard enough (like on Lauren's videos)... Iam using Justresin ocean cote and justresin white pigment

The first picture is my first and the second is my second try . Do you think i should add more turquoise in the second wave ? Thank you Lauren so much for the course , i learned a lot of details regarding the ocean design 🩷
