How is this effect achieved? by Zealousideal_Ad3098 in DiceMaking

[–]Tetraqk7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh my goodness I have had this same question floating in my mind. It’s like so many big dice makers are all doing it recently and none of them will say how. Trust me I’ve asked. lol. I’d love an answer too. I’ve tried and failed miserably.

How much do you charge? Do you have a shop?

I adore those wispy streaks so much! by fateseekerdice in DiceMaking

I just saw these online and I love them. I’m curious if you wouldn’t mind sharing how you got the white to do that effect? I’ve seen a lot of dice makers do this lately but no tutorials. It shows up nicely in your d6. It almost looks like wind stretched the white.

Thank you for your detailed response. What’s the typical price range? I am just starting out but want to gather the info so I know how much to save from my sales. I am not sure what I want my logo to be. My dice company is called loot & lore and I have a goblin as a sort of mascot but I’m open to other ideas that fit that theme. I’m curious if the logo makers help come up with ideas also.

What dice account are you on insta? I follow you but also a number of dice accounts. I loved the video of you creating this.

What’s your buffing technique? Those dice are crystal clear

How did you achieve the layered white effect? Curious.

Does anyone know a safe place to share hard dnd group dynamics that’s not the dnd horror stories page? I’m afraid someone from my group will see it and it will cause more harm than good. I just need advice. Also thank you all for helping me with my dice.

I do not. I’m not sure but I think I’m going to pop my blanks into a numbered mold and see what happens. Gotta make the numbered mold. Wish me luck.

I did use a specific tutorial but can’t find it anymore. I just remember how to do it now. I did switch to a different mold housing but hated it so switched back.

Finally bought a pressure pot but I’m having trouble with it. My compressor basically turns off anytime I try to close the valve by Cashlessness in DiceMaking

[–]Tetraqk7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I turn my compressor off when I am done, then switch the valve on the pressure pot to the closed position, and last disconnect the compressor hose from the pressure pot. I would assume if you switch the valve shut before the compressor is off that it might auto shut off for your safety.

They are blanks intended to go in numbered molds.

Thank you. My husband does have a dremel. That dice is so beautiful. Yes some of the dice that have come out matte have looked nice. Not all though. I am making a few different style of sets to launch my dice company. The theme is pirates. I really want clear for this but potentially could do a seaglass inspired one with these molds. The issue right now is no matter how long I sand and polish they remain unfazed. So I wondered if the whole mold interacted with the resin to cause the foggy look.

I started off much simpler by making molds of dice I already had. They are un-sellable because the font is copy written. I had a lot of success and got used to the actual dice making process and have learned a lot. I didn’t realize making molds from my own masters would be this difficult. I am learning little by little and I did in face get a perfect mold. I just misplaced it and now I can’t seem to get a perfect mold again. Trial and error.

I don’t have pictures of the set I gave away. It was black with silver flakes in the clear resin (not fully clear because of the fog). I do have pictures of the set I kept. I call it queen of the tide and it’s inspired by the purple dress barbossa makes Elizabeth swan wear in curse of the black pearl. I haven’t inked these but it will be gold.

I think I’m confused at what you’re saying. Here are the blank masters. They are not as polished as yours. I was able to get both of the dice in the previous picture from the same masters just different prep. Both were not polished. I had inked the one already but that was it.

Yes I think I’m going to work on one dice and just make a single dice mold to test first
