I finished Dash around lunchtime, so had plenty of time to do a bunch of dyeing. Wanted to dye colours for both Starlight (got enough for 3-4 versions of her lol) and some for Silverstream, in case I get commissioned to make her. She's essentially Starlight's color but paler so I figured I may as well do it at the same time.
I dyed blush minky with lilac idye poly (just a light dip) to get Starlights color. I then added some pink to the dye bath to get the paler colors for Silverstream.
It's very funny how the dye reacts to temperature. As the temp lowered (I have a low power stove top so struggle to keep the temp up), the color changed from more pink to purple. The pink tones must bond better at a higher temp.
I just dyed an absolute tonne so I had heaps to choose from. The cool pinks should come in handy in the future too.
