Complete Kits vs Individual Resin Components

When starting a seascape project, many creators appreciate the simplicity of choosing a complete kit. The “Sea” – Resin Kit for Creating Ocean Art, 1.7kg Epoxy, Pigments & Canvas equips you with everything: 1.7 kg of thick “Art Pro Deluxe” resin, the signature Wave-Pro wave additive, ocean-tone pigments, a 20 x 20 cm canvas, and clear instructions. If you’re after an easy start or gifting a beginner, the “Sea” kit is hard to beat.

Prefer to customise every aspect of your project? Explore high-precision and flexible options like “Art Pro Deluxe” – Ultra-High Viscosity Epoxy Resin for Artists, ideal for projects where you want maximum control over colours and wave placement. Pair with the “Marine Palette” – Set of Dyes for Ocean Art, Epoxy Resin, and Beach Effects for endless creative combinations, or use Wave-Pro powder to achieve professional-level lacing and cell effects.

Those wanting ultra-clear results with a dense, non-drip formula might prefer “Art Pro” – Clear Epoxy Resin, designed for beautiful glossy finishes and durable, scratch-resistant surfaces that will keep your ocean art looking pristine.

Essential Additives and Pigments for Seascape Excellence

A realistic ocean scene needs vibrant blues, layered transparency, and dynamic wave motion. The “Marine Palette” set provides highly pigmented, odourless dyes specifically blended for seascapes—no uncertain colour mixing needed. Each set includes 4 or 6 harmoniously selected shades, and the pigments are fully compatible with epoxy-based resins.

Professional results also hinge on your wave effects. Wave-Pro pigment additive disperses resin naturally to form convincing cell patterns and foam—no torch or heat required. It’s safe, solvent-free, and suitable for combining with any of our pourable artist resins.

If you crave vivid compositions with perfectly rendered movement, try pairing Art Pro Deluxe or Art Pro with the Marine Palette dyes and Wave-Pro—the ultimate line-up for dynamic ocean-inspired creations.

How to Choose the Best Resin Model for Your Seascape Project

The resin choice often depends on your artistic process and desired effect. For beginners or those who prefer a guided approach, the “Sea” resin kit offers unmatched convenience and results tailored specifically to ocean art.

Advanced artists can leverage the Art Pro Deluxe resin’s ultra-high viscosity for crisp lines and defined waves, or employ Art Pro for high-gloss, transparent finishes on varied surfaces. For even more control, customise your own blend by pairing these resins with the Marine Palette and the essential Wave-Pro additive.

Choosing compatible products ensures your seascapes feature vibrant depths, realistic waves, and a UV-protected, durable finish. For creative ideas and video tutorials, visit our Resins for pour paint and accessories or Pigments Sets category pages.
