    I know some costings have been posted, but can we get a breakdown of a per-dice cost?

    Also I'm sorry I didn't see your post in time Bob, but you did a great job on my picture anyway :D

    That "O" on your latest dice there might be improved by a thin reptile eyelid/socket surrounding it? I also think the 1 could use a dot, just to keep the number theme going!

    Personally I find it a bit hard/weird/confusing when the 1 or 6 on a dice is a special symbol very different to the other numbers, compared to the rest of the numbers. Can also be a bit confusing for your opponent, especially when it's a high-gambling roll! It's always good to have dice results that you can INSTANTLY identify the number for so you can cheer or groan. But maybe that's just me.

    You've bounced back quickly! Don't forget Dr Bob's advice now.

    My first death mask was:
    j06s.png

    I settled on:
    d3zb.png

    I prefer the cut outs versus dots, and there are still 6 of them. If you get a "wait a minute..." response from your warm blooded opponent they can still count to 6. Unless they are O'n'G players.

    I'll run a reduced size snake-eye past the head honcho.

    By the way, You're killing me, PlasmaDavid......

    Wait, it was a six all along? See, I was so confused by the lack of dots I thought it was meant to be for a one! :D

    If you becalm yourself into a higher state of deliberations and then harrowingly scrutinize on the mystery of the death mask, soon an unfathomable focus will converge to transcend what is merely not visible to bring about a consciousness of harmonious eldritch energy which hints at unfathomable dots which are beyond the purview of weak minded warm bloods.

    I shouldn't be a graphic designer. I should write army books!

    Ha ha, the first one looks like Lord Kroak is wearing curlers! Since he doesn't have naturally curly hair he needs to do something to make himself presentable for a nice war.

    You should get that checked maybe?

    As soon as I get a firm number from Chessex, I will gladly post it. Likely post it in a new thread along with ordering information. :smug:

    Just a quick update for everyone on this; things are happening very slowly. It's wearing on my patience as well, but we'll get there. All designs have been submitted along with any relevant edits that are required. Chessex should be making samples for us this week.

    Apologies for getting everyone all hyped up. I'll try to keep my peeper shut about this until we're ready to order.

    Not your fault that they're a toad on the slow side...

    But this ungodly amount of patience we need to muster, will truly test us if we are warm- or coldblooded :D

    Quick note:
    If you make a new thread for ordering, could you please also make a post in this thread linking it. So when
    somebody clicks on 'view your posts' they don't miss the order. Lots of topics in the Lizardmen Discussion area :)

    Thanks for all the effort!

    Absolutely. I'll likely keep ordering open for at least a full week as well. Perhaps 2 if there are some stragglers.

    I have a couple more sample photos I could share, but I feel it's a bit mean to tease everyone at this point. I'll make sure everything is posted clearly along with ordering instructions in the final thread.

    Yeah, I had to rely on my BSB for my leadership check a couple times. Steadfast is slowly wearing away... :smug:

    Are you okay if we direct other people, or forums, here? I'm sure there's plenty of Lizardmen players who would like themed dice. But it might mean an influx on the forums and more work!

    I hope you keep the order thread open for at least two weeks, I'm going to Rome on Hols tomorrow and won't be around for a while, I don't want to find it all done and dusted when I get back ;)

    We can do 2 weeks if it's preferred. Not like we're in a rush to get these or anything, right? :rolleyes:

    LORD MAZDAMUNDI DETESTS OUTSIDERS!!! THE DICE OF SOTEK MUST NOT BE TAINTED!!! You must have had an L-O account since before the 8th edition book dropped to get in on this...

    (JK of course. If you want to direct people here to get in on the action, feel free. More the merrier.)
