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!

Interesting idea, never done this before, always interested in learning. Just watched a quick video on using blanks, you can get some pretty cool effects! Unfortunately I don’t have access to blank inserts now, I suppose those could go on my wishlist ha…

For bronze, I would mix brown ink into the resin, then slowly add gold mica until you like it.
