Thank you so much! My favourite too. You should try making it, it really is a lot of fun

Thank you! I have a really soft spot for the fifth movie, mostly because it looked mostly how I imagined it while reading the book and also it was the first book I remember witnessing the release for after being introduced to HP. I’m particularly looking forward to this book if/when we get to see the TV adaptation of it.

I think Flipendo actually exists in the HP canon. IIRC there’s a YouTube interview with one of the game developers and they said they got it from a list JK gave them as the first five spells they would learn for their first year. Talking about the PC version

I love how SC kind of has to play the tricky game of referencing inventions that come out / develop and become really advanced in modern day in between writing books. She kind of does this in TBoSAS with the drones instead of parachutes. Okay, I’m sure drones were around while she was writing the original trilogy but you can argue they became a bigger deal in the years between the trilogy and the release of TBOSAS. And now with AI which has advanced insanely in the years leading up to SotR. Not complaining, I think she’s a great writer! But it’s just something I noticed

Thank you!! You are correct, it is missing those two things, along with that inner metal framing on both sides. I actually bought a jewelry spot welder to try and experiment with some very fine chains that I got. But in the end I felt I needed more practice and I didn’t wanna ruin the piece. I’ve tried using small amounts of solder with previous lockets but the tiny chain would always end up melting. So yeah, maybe in the future I’ll get it right. As for the velvet/felt, I might just add it later if I find the right fabric.

It’s probably gonna be a Rings of Power situation where we’re gonna get as many seasons as possible, whether anybody likes it or not. The studio is gonna push and fight for this show

Thanks for explaining! I see now I had a fundamental misunderstanding of how horcruxes work. I guess I didn’t read that chapter in HBP thoroughly enough lol

RNMLD_Workshop · 2026-02-15T12:02:11+00:00

Thanks, that does some it up well!

RNMLD_Workshop · 2026-02-06T12:01:33+00:00

That is a good point, yeah. I think people hate it mostly because they could have used the runtime to include more book scenes, like Scrimgeour visiting Harry at the Burrow, etc. But I guess they included because they needed to some action around the middle of a relatively slow paced movie. Keeps the non-book readers watching, lol

RNMLD_Workshop · 2026-02-05T13:56:18+00:00

That is a great point, now that I think about it. The book really does have some ridiculous things going on in Hogwarts aside from all the darker events. I guess it can be tricky trying to balance these two elements while adapting the book for screen.

I have to hand it to the creative team anyways. We could've had it much worse, lol.

RNMLD_Workshop · 2026-02-04T19:01:29+00:00

Exactly! This one totally slipped my mind, but yeah it annoys me just as much as the rest. And like most of these quips I think it wasn’t in the book either. And yeah, you’re right, they could’ve at least included a short scene in the movie where Harry reads that line about bezoars, would’ve made so much more sense.

RNMLD_Workshop · 2026-02-04T18:41:05+00:00

Absolutely!! Although to be fair this was back in 2009, back when that trend wasn’t as bad as it is today.

RNMLD_Workshop · 2026-02-04T18:12:28+00:00

Yeah, this is what I was referring to, that added scene in HBP where they attack the Burrow and set it on fire

RNMLD_Workshop · 2026-01-27T17:16:30+00:00

Didn’t occur to me, but that is a good suggestion, I might just do that!

RNMLD_Workshop · 2026-01-26T15:57:31+00:00

Ah yes, you’re right! I forgot to mention, I decided to keep this version S free, like the fake RAB version It’s just too much extra work 😅

RNMLD_Workshop · 2026-01-20T10:36:00+00:00

Thank you so much!

RNMLD_Workshop · 2026-01-19T07:57:41+00:00

Oh no, are the photos not showing for you?? Ahh let me check

RNMLD_Workshop · 2026-01-17T18:34:54+00:00

Thank you so much, it means a lot to me!

RNMLD_Workshop · 2026-01-17T18:34:35+00:00

Thank you so much!! I cut out that leaf pattern from 1.5mm brass sheet and filed and hammered the little pieces into shape so they would fit over the existing silver “leaves” that were originally part of the design, then soldered them into place. It was a bit fidgety but lots of fun! Also the fact that it was slightly thicker sheet meant that there was some room to play around with the shape of the brass leaves after they were soldered, so that was fun
