LOTS of dice
this month ... The biggest event this month was I finally got ahold of those elusive odd sided dice from BEAR CUB MACHINE so now I am closer to owning at least one example of every die on the dice shapes page The next biggest event is DIE # 22000 Q-WORKSHOP concluded their dice design contest that began in September here are the results Contrats to Thomas Pasieka of 3d Attack for his winning submission |
Seems an entire cottage industry is rising from custom made dice Both JSPASSNTHRU and KINGDOM DICE gained their own themes this month with custom dice |
