Yes, I can see that raising the cost considerably but the idea is an interesting one, although you would have your work cut out with that.
Do you mind sharing the recipe of how you did the blood pool

I may make a set of splashes and ripples at some point, then design my pieces to fit them, rather than the reverse, allowing versatility.

The blood is epoxy resin, I used opaque resin dyes of blue, red and brown, but I didn't follow a formula I just added a little of each until it matched my sample I had made previously, which I based off real blood from a hobby wound... so yeah, blood sacrifice.

This thread is brilliant, i admire your work.

Great to hear! Keep an eye open, before the year is up I'll be making a new thread to showcase all the amazing commission projects we've been working on over the year.

Cheers for the info that makes sense to do it that way around, however will that not dictate future designs a little ? but on the up side will save time

My thoughts exactly! There are always a lot of decisions to weigh, I swear we spend more time debating the best way to do something than actually building.

I do it the other way around, chuck it together then work out a better way to have done it, I guess thats half the fun LOL

I have to say your eye detail is amazing, I cant wait to see these commission pieces
