I'm a frustrated artist, happily married, retired military and a reenactor.
I love to find things that I don't think archaeologist got quite right and then figure out the nuts and bolts of things.
A lot of my projects were done before I knew there was an "Instructables" so there's no documentation other then pictures.

I've been away for a long time. The Rune form I use here is Eldar Runor, which is the oldest and saw continued use from 600 BCE (Goth usage until the 14 Century CE.

Change what colour to what new colour? If you are working with red ochre you can change it by adding some yellow ochre. If you are working with charcoal you can change to grey by adding ground chalk or burned bone. To help I need to know what color you want to change and what you want to change it to.

I'm not understanding your question. To change what colour?
It's trial and error, I want to do a drinking horn also, but rats got to my supply of horns
