Topic: Colorant mixing

So, for the first time I tried producing colored filament. I mixed 200 g of MG94 granulate with 4 g of OS Printing's blue colorant and 4 g of yellow colorant (so 50:1:1 ratios). The goal was to produce green 3 mm filament.

The results... well, it looks much more awesome than I thought. Images attached.
