I want to see how long it will take to get full skin dye the "old-fashioned way" So I am spending a few hours in the towns each day collecting bugs and what not and turning them into inks and then that into dyes..... Oh goodness I am up for a long haul. After each visit into town I am going to post what I collected here and how long I was in the town for. Please support me in My Quest, as i am sure it will be a long one >__< * I will accept all donations of trash flowers or bugs, but none is expected or mandatory. i will take them with open arms though!!* *note: all blue butterflies are being donated to Risa Blues quest for a million butterflies* INK PROGRESS: All thats left of my questing: everything else has been made into dye!     *thanks for some SUPER help from Risa blue with a large donation of yellow butterflies and brown bugs!! (gained 5 inks from her!) and another thanks the Dissouled for his doantions to me.

me too!!! So i just waited for bugs to fly past me and caught them. I was so sad cause there was finally bugs, and all I could do was get stuck.
lol you should go for a million of everything, as much blue crap as I have been getting, it shouldn't be too hard.
lets see i need 250,000 of each colour to get the dyes. so i will have like 2 million worth of bugs all together?? wait.... what bugs make white? 0.0
