The Droidwich Horror.

Sunday, October 23rd, 2011

Let’s be honest, Cthulhu has been parodied to death already. Pokethulhu, Hello Cthulhi, Cthulhu for president (why choose the lesser evil?) and so on… What is unusual is to mock up a specific character other than the main old gods in Lovecraft’s stories. So today, for a bit of change, I will make fun out [...]

Dradis alert!

Thursday, October 13th, 2011

And of course, if we have the baddies, then we should have the good guys too! This is a custom request for an upcoming game, so, those D3′s are not for sale, sorry! ^_^ Good news everyone! Game creator instructed me to make the dice avaliable. ^_^ Once he has the game finished, I’ll put [...]

Ada Lovelace.

Saturday, October 8th, 2011

Yesterday (October 7) was Ada Lovelace’s Day. The Enchantress of Numbers, as she was called by Babbage, was born on 10 December 1815, and as a frail child, had plenty of “spare” time to be home-schooled by her mother, due to an obsession with rooting out any of the insanity she might had because of [...]

Mechanika.

Friday, October 7th, 2011

This is more like what I had in mind with yesterday’s die: For the inhabitants of the plane Mechanus from Dungeons & Dragons: Gears AND runes ^_^ Soon avaliable on the shop ^_^

Gears…

Thursday, October 6th, 2011

So…as many might have notticed, I have not been very active lately. In part, I decided to trottle back a bit from the 3 dice a week, down to 1, so I can get accustomed to it. Once I get a normal job, I will not be able to do be as creative as before, [...]

Chat Noir.

Wednesday, September 28th, 2011

Okay, today’s die is about cats, altough the die itself has no cat in itself. Someone at G+ asked one day if I could make a die with cat paws as pips and a yarn ball as sixth face. I had no doubt that doing the cat paws was easy, but I wasn’t sure about [...]

Avoid Redshirts.

Saturday, September 17th, 2011

Directly from wikipedia: “Redshirt” is a term for a stock character in fiction who dies soon after being introduced. The term originated with fans of Star Trek (1966–1969), from the red shirts worn by Starfleet security officers who frequently die during episodes. So, unless your character has suicidal intentions, never, ever, wear a red shirt [...]

Shockwave.

Sunday, September 11th, 2011

Sometimes I just like to poke around and make conceptual dice. That is, the ones who are not theme-specific, or directly related to something in particular. This particular idea (concentric partial rings) has been on my mind for quite some time now, and today I finally got to develop it. It is not a particularly [...]

Fallout.

Thursday, September 1st, 2011

As many of you know, I love post apocalyptic themes, settings and games. Today, I bring you another Fallout-esque die, it is quite simple, just the fallout font plus the ligtning crossed O as zero. The result is astounding! Guess wich die will get a go in my dice bag…  ^_^ Webshop link->I want one [...]

Anon.

Wednesday, August 31st, 2011

So, I got back home after a few days of family dinner and when I got into the workshop, I found this on my desk: Could you believe I didn’t make this, nor do I know where did it come from? I hope you don’t! ^_^ ——————————————————————- It’s been a while since I downloaded the [...]
