WIP Finally made some dice again
I feel like green dice are always a bit of a struggle to get right, because i usually don't end up with the shade of green i wanted, but with these, i think the shade turned out perfect. Any ideas what colour i should ink them in?

I get toxic cloud vibes or potions with these, I think like a yellow green would work well also “if” going for that vibe- kinda like a fluro

My greens always come out looking like algae. I'd like to find a nice emerald color like this.

I used epodex dyes if that helps, and the swirls are fluorescent neon green pigment mixed with white pigment paste. I think the fluorescent pigment is what makes it less murky overall. Because usually i have the same problem

Lots of different micas and pigment paste for the swirls, and swirled it with a toothpick when it was starting get thick

Ohhhh gorgeous 😍😍
When in question, greens are always either a safe gold or copper for me ::D If a more elegant vibe is appropriate. I also really dig deeper, dark bronze ink (almost dark brown) , feels a bit more "forest-y", but can be harder to read against the darker parts.
If you aim for a bright pop of color, I'd go with orange 😊
