8th Ed. Custom Artillery Dice Sneak Peak (New Pics in OP - 8/7)

[Qupakoco]

Re: Custom Artillery Dice Sneak Peak

And actually, for my input on the single side design, is there anyway we can make the snout a little shorter? I like the symbol but it looks a little small in this picture:



I'm thinking if we were to remove a tooth and shorten the face up a little that we could get a bigger image. Just to help make it pop off the die more. That or shrink the eyebrow part a little. Something like this:



Circles represent the limits of the flat surface on the dice. Does that look too squat and fat? Please note that this was done in paint. I'm sure someone else could do a better job.

Re: Custom Artillery Dice Sneak Peak

Am I good to get in on this, or have folks committed and ordered already?

TK.net did a custom dice order a while back and I got some really nice TK dice, Lizardmen would be even better.
Can I recommend ordering at least two colours (I will order some of both), its useful to have different coloured dice sometimes in the event that you want to roll attacks with different strength/WS/BS together.

Also, if my opinion is going to sway anything at this stage I actually prefers the second design with the neck and serpentine tongue, seems bit more Lizardy.

Re: Custom Artillery Dice Sneak Peak

No orders are placed yet. We are still in the planning stage at this point.

And yes, we'll likely have 4 or more color options for each design. Two colors would be a minimum.

Awesome to see stuff in the flesh.

I think the shorter snout and crest work well for the 6. I will also try to rotate that image onto the diagonal to see if we can make it larger on the dice.

The D3 / scatter design I did on the other thread was just a rough one. Should I do the final ?

Re: Custom Artillery Dice Sneak Peak

I actually like this D3 design, but we definitely could incorporate it into a scatter die also. Now that the polls work, how about you do the final and then we'll do a vote for the combo D3/Scatter or individual dice for each. Sound good?

Sounds great to me. Thanks for the work Bob!

Re: Custom Artillery Dice Sneak Peak

I allways liked the Borealis Light Green/gold

 

[Rikard]

Re: Custom Artillery Dice Sneak Peak

Agreed, it is nice.

I am a huge fan of the Phantom teal with gold and the Lustrous Green w/silver.

I already have 20 of the original GW LM dice (was working in AUS at the time of the 7th edition release so was given them then) so having the 1s replaced with a symbol makes more sense.

Re: Custom Artillery Dice Sneak Peak

Really like the light green two or three posts ago

I allways liked the Borealis Light Green/gold

 

[OmegaHavoc]

Re: Custom Artillery Dice Sneak Peak

As long as the dice look sweet, which I'm sure they will, color doesn't matter so much.

 

[Spiney Norman]

Re: Custom Artillery Dice Sneak Peak

Borealis light green/gold
Cirrus Aqua/silver
Gemini blue-gold/white or Gemini blue-red/gold would be my best choices.

 

[Scalenex]

Re: Custom Artillery Dice Sneak Peak

Artillery die looks awesome. I still think I'd prefer pips but the numerals look good too.

 

[The Hunted]

Re: Custom Artillery Dice Sneak Peak

I don't like these actually. They look way too bright IMO.

I allways liked the Borealis Light Green/gold

Also, I want to cheer when I see the lizardmen symbol: I cheer when I roll a 6

My favorites are the;
Scarab Jade w/gold
Nebula Black/white has some appeal to me
Lustrous green w/silver (Lustriaous!...so close)
Gimini gold/green/white
And Festive green/silver

Although I'm sure it will all work out!

Re: Custom Artillery Dice Sneak Peak

Gemini Black-Red/ Gold is my favorite.

The Jade combo is pretty cool as well as blue/gold options.

 

[OmegaHavoc]

Re: Custom Artillery Dice Sneak Peak

I just hope the 6 is a lizard.

 

[Old Mossy]

Re: Custom Artillery Dice Sneak Peak

oooo, I quite like the idea of a D3. Count me in for a couple of those, too.

Any word on the artillery dice with pips?

 

[rychek]

Re: Custom Artillery Dice Sneak Peak

Personally I like the Gemini range best. The rest kind of left me flat. My picks would be (all Gemini)

Anything with Copper
Anything with Blue (except Blue-Steel as I already have some that color and they don't look as good as the pictures).
Green-Purple/Gold
