Looking for some advice on making fake coloured gems.
I'm working on a replica of Durins Ring from amazon's ROP series. Usually I work with real gemstones but I'm going to have to come up with a creative solution to replicate the stone in this ring. I thought maybe I could 3d model it to make a mould, then use some kind of dyed clear resin but that's very much outside of my wheelhouse so wondered if anyone could recommend some products/techniques?
