I guess the process isn't possible with resin for whatever reason? ..or maybe it is too costly?
Might be a cost thing. I've seen fan made pieces with shine to their pieces like the Silver Surfer. The P1 Cyborg Superman and T-800 look like they have a fair amount of shine to them but then again, they cost more.

To display this without it being repainted with chrome is fail...

The Hot Toys Captain Phasma looks better.

The chrome looks better.
The helmet looks less squashed.
The black and red cloak appears to look better (based on images shown).
