Welcome to The Pit. Mortal Kombat's deadliest arena. 💀<br>I spent weeks bringing this iconic stage to life using XPS foam, 3D printed miniatures, and multiple layers of glowing epoxy resin for the blood river effect. 🩸<br>👉 Watch the FULL 19-minute step-by-step cinematic build on YouTube here: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4b15pxkFH-8">https://youtu.be/4b15pxkFH-8</a>

Are there any fellow 80s and 90s kids here?<br>Have you ever fixed a TV by giving it a good smack on the side? 😂<br>Well, that's basically what happened with my pulley system. To keep it working properly, I had to spin the wheel with one hand while gently tapping the model with the other so the chain would drop more smoothly.<br>Sometimes, the old-school troubleshooting methods still get the job done!

Thank you, I’m 43 and Dead Pool is my favourite stage in all the mortal Kombat games. You did an amazing job it really captures the atmosphere. The little bubbles were a nice touch

Die hard MK fan since childhood. I love seeing ultra detailed dioramas. This is by far the best I have ever come across. You can feel the acid bubbling onto the platform as they fight!

Outstanding (in Shao Khan's voice), I'm so not jealous right now.

[ TIP 4 U ] For this diorama, I used two different types of resin.<br>The first one was a 1:1 resin with a fast curing time and a hard finish. I used it to thoroughly seal and coat the entire lakebed surface, creating a strong protective layer. This step is very important before pouring a large volume of resin because once this initial coat has fully cured, it effectively seals most of the material's air-release pathways.<br>As a result, when you pour a larger amount of resin in the next step—which can generate a significant amount of heat during curing—it is much less likely to cause air bubbles to escape from the model and create unwanted bubbling in the resin.

I've been a die hard MK fan since the first MK game. I even buy the new release even if I'm not likely to play it much, just on principle that it's another MK game. lol Absolutely LOVED watching this!
