ReplyDeleteMade in the hardest way possible. Draw and color by hand, then cut out by hand.
They came out Fantastic! Donald McCalmon the gauntlet has been dropped!
ReplyDeleteIf I could have found them anywhere from a US seller, or for less than $30 overseas, I probably would have just bought them, but this was a $5 solution.
ReplyDeleteThey came out great.
ReplyDeleteAmateurs, let me know when you have a real challenge!
ReplyDeleteOn a more serious note, for these I just used regular white dice with black pips. For a first go it worked, but a couple of issues. (1) the black pips show throw a bit and (2) you need to make the sticker just big enough to cover the pips but small enough to not roll over the edge. It took a couple tries to get the size right, and placement is important. A bit too much fiddling.
Now I could go one of two routes for dice. Plain 16mm dice, or these 19mm ones with a 1/2" square indent on each face.

25 dice are $15, but I think the 50 dice for $25 is better. You can mix colors in the order, and 50 dice gets 6 sets or 8 Saga dice.
Regardless of the dice used, I need to buy better labels. The one I used is a standard label, flat finish and not very durable. I'm going to check for a more resilient label, maybe a more satin finish photo label.
The fatigue markers came out good, but the piety marker needs some work. Jim, if you want Muslim fatigue markers let me know.

Nice, Don!
ReplyDeleteNice, the pips are annoying but they still look good. Ill take some fatigue markers for sure!
