These are very cool dice!
Your products are wonderful and I hope one day to work with you to produce some dice for the Gamealogical Institute, when just the right game is "unearthed".
I wish you continued success.

Onward,
Tony

I think I would like to hand color these ... so white may be the best

For example ... something like THIS

hi
i´m a great fan of steampunk and i made my own glothes. I work every day with all types of metal.
I think Steampunk is a thing that is simply get on functionality, its no thing of design
i mean the dice would look realy cool if they were paintet simply brass on black or bette deep red/brown dice to create a used und massiv look

i´m sorry for my bad english

AleaNoctem Gigg
sry for my bad english i´m really out of practice
got someone a site where i can find angles in dice? i´m most interesstet in d20 cause the angles i got had a good result but the edges are not correct and don´t come on one point

Knowing your collection, Kevin, I bet you'll have anything that these guys produce! :)

Also, as Alea mentioned, I also think it would be nice if you managed to incorporate brass or other metallic colour into them somehow. In my dream world the dice themselves would be brass with black or white etchings.

Cheers! :D

White seem more neat to me :) Can't wait to get them...
Hmm but you say 5 colors. Sepia maybe? That'd be perfect i think...
