What is it?

[E Pericoloso Sporgersi]

Is it cold (room temperature) or hot (80 C) curing acrylic polymer?

For the purpose of this challenge, that's irrelevant. The acrylic was already cured when this item was made. Here's a photo of the label on the bottom.

I can no longer monitor the challenge. It's a work of art created by using specialized drills to hollow out areas of the acrylic so that they resemble sea life, then painting the hollows so they resemble figures cast in plastic. Each one is individually hand made. The answer I was looking for was the method used to create this object.





The challenge is open to any iPF member who wishes to post a challenge.

If you get a chance I'd love to see a couple of pictures

And now for something completely different. What is this?

Almost looks like a glazed chocolate donut - now I'm hungry

It makes me think of the underside of brown (or cooked) mushroom, where the stem is attached to the head.

Chocolate is involved, but the individual pieces are much smaller than a donut.

Is it a close-up of "hagelsslag" (literally fine hail in Dutch) or "muizenstrontjes" (literally mouse-droppings in Flemish), which, in English, is chocolate sprinkles?

(If I'm right, then I forfait, of course.)

My challenge photo was a close up of chocolate covered raisins.
