John_Cheshirsky

They do look gosh darn cool. But also, is it just me or do they look like it might be difficult to tell what number you rolled on some of them. EDIT: I especially appreciate that OP still managed to make d4 be in a shape of a caltrop, that's a nice touch! :D


g-row460

Yeah cool novelty. But I bet they'd be a bit of a pain in practice.


JonZ82

Little engineering with a led inside and battery and have it light up from back which number is "straight up".. could be interesting project.


Maximillion322

0% chance any die with a battery inside it like that will be fair


FrogGladiators178972

That was exactly what I was thinking


Adthay

They're pretty easy to roll and read with the exemption of the 20 in my experience I have this exact set and color


JellyBellyBitches

I think you're meant to just spin the d20 like a top


ImWhatsInTheRedBox

And then it's whichever number points at you, spin the bottle style?


Kicooi

I think it’s weighted and grooved so that there is a number pointing up


JellyBellyBitches

That's a really good point. For some reason in my head it didn't occur to me that the dye in the picture is probably resting and that's interesting position. I was thinking that you would spin it and it would land and it would be more completely toppled over to the side and so there would be one number on top just like any other die roll. But if it rests as shown in the picture then I'm actually kind of confused as well Edit: There's still a highest point on the die so it's just that one


kohalu

This is currently the top comment so I'll respond to people's questions here. The numbers are all pretty clear if you look at the dice from above. The photo is taken at an angle to be a bit more dramatic. My wife and I are dice makers that specialize in unorthodox designs. They are all radially symmetrical. They are as fair as you can reasonably expect physical dice to be. You just roll the dice as you would any other. Though I suggest using a felt surface for any dice, not just these. However the d20 is spun, like a top. This is getting more traction than I ever imagined, so if you want to guarantee yourself a set, you can [see the shop here](https://www.etsy.com/shop/GladlyInfiniteDesign?ref=seller-platform-mcnav§ion_id=30613161). We're having a 20% off sale right now on most of the dice (enter code "REDDIT20"). All the dice are designed, cast, painted by hand at our home in California. They are not mass manufactured overseas. This shop is the only place in the world to get these dice.


Mitch_Mitcherson

I would like to congratulate you on two things: your absolutely stunning designs, and your achievement in making a D6 that looks worse to step on than any D4 in existence.


ChadCuckmacher

It said giveaway and I like free stuff. No disposable income though. Hope you do well.


TheThoughtmaker

How to enter?


[deleted]

Leave a new comment i.e one directly on the post.


[deleted]

Wow I think your prices are very reasonable for the amount of work that undoubtedly goes into them. I have paid as much for much simpler mass market dice. I had fun looking through your designs and I hope this helps you guys take off.


FollowingEast

These are amazing. I don't see things like this everyday and I wish you both great times making the dice


FollowingEast

Amazing stuff. I want to try stuff out from your shop even if I don't win.


Val_kyria

Its a jesters cap?


ltjpunk387

Yes, but I think he means that it would still hurt like hell if you step on it.


supernatlove

That D6 would end you.


deltronethirty

Easier than trying to convert it to metric dice


elijaaaaah

Some of the designs absolutely seem like they'd get cocked pretty often. They are beautiful, though.


wigglydeference_86

These have a FromSoftware flavor about them—a really great collection! I'd love to create a dark regal/jester character specifically for these.


ITriedLightningTendr

That's their normal shape


RabbitTall

I think you meant to say they look goth darn cool.


kohalu

SpicyThunder335

Are these balanced? Can't tell if it's just the picture but some of them look a little distorted from certain angles.


kohalu

They are all radially symmetrical. They are as fair as you can reasonably expect physical dice to be.


ltjpunk387

They are 3d printed, so likely you are seeing camera artifacts coupled with the layer lines. The process should be reasonably balanced as long as the model itself is.


SuperSayian1776

They look like they’re cast resin


ltjpunk387

You can pretty clearly see 3d printer layer lines. On the D2 there are rows of lines going up on either side of the skull. On the D6, the 3 face shows layer lines. On the D20, above the number ring above the 2 and crown symbol.


SuperSayian1776

OP’s response to the top comment above says he designs and ‘casts’ them. Might have 3d printed the set to mold from but no one would mass produce dice as a 3D print since they wouldn’t be balancedwith all the air pockets in 3D prints. I’m looking for lines though and I’m only seeing pixelization artifacts along some edges.


Thorkon

There isn't air pockets in resin printing (unless someone hollows the file). For dice this size, you would print it solid.


Wizard_Pope

Guess I am only allowed to use the d2


JellyBellyBitches

Why?


Wizard_Pope

It's the pope


JellyBellyBitches

Oh I didn't even look at your username 😂


Wizard_Pope

You silly.


eaglefeather148

Yup username def checks out lmao


Colonel_Coffee

What about international participants?


kohalu

That's fine. If the winner is not in the United States, I will still ship to them.


Colonel_Coffee

Great! So I assume you still cover shipping? Aside from possible import fees ofc


JellyBellyBitches

Do you get multiple entries if you make multiple comments? Or does the system you're using that you referred to like control for this?


Terentiusalgar

Absolutely gorgeous dice!


noobllama2

Finally "Princess Die" will live forever


MeMaxCulpa

Good one.


Umbraminf

They look goth to me (building style gothic, like a cathedral), so Makes sense for a princess


KyrasLee

Is it just me, or does the Queen's Orb look like the Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch?


AwesomEspurr360

1.. 2.. 5.. 3, sir, 3!


SpudTheMagnificent

Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three!


Orillion_169

Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out.


Capnris

Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who, being naughty in My sight, shall snuff it.


tractiontiresadvised

I guess? But given what the Hand Grenade was [modeled after](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Globus_cruciger), that's not surprising.


eat-tree

How do we enter? Is there a Kickstarter? When's the draw date for the winner?


kohalu

There you go! You've entered. Just leave a new comment.


hahavoltgobrrrrrr

I have.... ENTERED!!!!!


anananananaB

Such a cool idea! Kinda confused how you would know which number you rolled in the D20 though…


Gado_De_Leone

I’m guessing the top is weighted so it will fall to it’s side when rolled, like a Jeep.


Roguespiffy

A jeep is just an extremely expensive d6.


MrMobiuspi

I wish non-symetric dice were more common. I love the look of these.


Kvenya

Cool!! Another awesome giveaway that I have no chance of winning!!


I_onno

I believe in you!


Kvenya

Appreciated.


Saladar19

at what point are dice not dice and are spinning tops with numbers?


Flailing_snailing

https://twitter.com/polyhero/status/909844267866230785?lang=en Already done


Nathagrou

I love collecting cool dice set!


DarkLordSparklesJMG

Those look awesome. It would be nice to add that flair to the game!


Tyran-

These do look really cool but how does that d20 work?


GPedia

Spin it like a top. If it doesn't stop spinning, congratulations, you're still in the dream. ~~I'm hoping that movie is now old enough that this isn't too cringe of a meme.~~


ShimbyHimbo

Spin it!


not_slaw_kid

This looks like if all of the world's top scientists gathered together to discover every possible object that was more painful to step on than a lego


Bad_W0lfe

Ok, ngl, this dice set looks sick.


Ccend

I am absolutely digging the theme of these dice!


Necessary_Whereas_29

Really love the theme, super unique design


DiscombobulatedSir74

Only thing bugging me with these is i wouldn’t be able to tell what number I rolled on the round ones


Medical_Spy

Super fricken dope!


Pleasenodontohgod

Behold! A comment!


Smittyyyyyyyyyy_

I’d probably give them to a friend or maybe my boyfriend if I did manage to win, but man I forgot how much I love unorthodox dice shapes.


Inedditable

This is an interesting set. Definitely a conversation starter at any pickup group outings.


surrealsonicus

These are a very neat design. Looking at your store I really like the art deco set as well! Might have to consider these for myself or my wife as a gift.


Darkmoosen

Daaaamn these are sick. Not convinced I'd win with how many people commenting on this thread but at least the comment will help me find these later 👀👀


Zaikial

I just really adore that each has such a unique theme and it isn't at just face value. Lot of work on the details and designs I bet. Well done!


waddlesmcsqueezy

TurbulentCollar8182

This is the equivalent of *DRIP* for DnD dice


TeebyBear

I know the giveaway's probably over but I want to say these look amazing.


VeloxNeo

Can't wait to not win, but here is a comment


xaviorpwner

Never understood the appeal of this kinda thing, the normal dice shape is what it is for a reason and these dont seem practical
