I forgot I was subscribed here.

Nice work! I think the Ravenclaw bronze turned out quite well!

Yeah that one is absolutely my favorite, with Gryffindor as second. I do like how the translucent green on Slytherin let's you see the swirling silver inside. And just like the Hogwarts House itself, the Hufflepuff dice was...fine...

Hufflepuff, the only ones without a metal in their house colours... I guess that suits them. They're modest, and not as flashy as the other houses.

Perfect!

I've always enjoyed mixing opaque and translucent resin for two-tone dice.

Yeah I'm real pleased with the results. Took me awhile to get the process down, if I poured right after mixing the colors just sorta blended together. I ended up mixing both colors, letting the resin sit for like 40 minutes, and then pouring. Kept them distinct while still allowing them to flow well enough
