First post here as an r/dicemaking refugee, glad this place has a similar community!
So I’ve got a friend who is both a standard nerd and is also deep into Harry Potter. I’ve had the idea to make them a set of four d20’s, each with coloring and patterns appropriate to the Hogwarts Houses, and maybe make a wooden/3d printed stand to display them on.
The biggest problem I’m currently facing is how the heck to get a bronze color/effect for Ravenclaw out of ink and mica powder, but I’m also open to any other generic style ideas.
Thanks!
Isnt ravenclaw primarily blue?
Yeah but according to all the stuff I’ve read on various sites, each house has two colors
Gryffindor: gold and red Hufflepuff: black and yellow Slytherin: silver and green Ravenclaw: blue and bronze
Makes sense! Having a search around for various references, I see what you mean.
unsure what colours you have access to, or materials. If you have gold ink, you could mix in a tiny amount of brown to dull it a bit, more like bronze? Or if you haven’t got brown, red with a tiny amount of black, then mix that with gold?
It also seems theres various other possible colour schemes but I have no idea how canon they are.
