    Hey guys, I'm making the prop APM from Harry Potter. So far I have the cover, spine and back cover finished, and the means to have books created out of those files. My main question is, should I post an interest thread in the Junkyard as blank books, or should I spend some hefty time into creating pages with harry potter themed potion recipes, and info? If the second option was most popular, the book wouldn't be screen accurate, i'd have to write most of the content myself. So, what should I do? I'm having trouble deciding here.

    You could add pages with Harry Potter themed Potions and "channel" Snape cross out words and add contradictory sentences and such...looking forward to it!

    After watching Half-Blood for the 80th time on HBO I thought about that as a prop. I'd love to see some pics. As for the interior, your best bet is to take tons of screencaps for replication I guess.

    Of course, there are a handful of pages seen in the film, but that would be a daunting task to come up with enough original content to fill a book. Tough call.
