Custom resin castings by @_Keewy_.

Only just getting started and learning the basics.

Still a bit of a work in progress lol

@splodeybaloney That's actually the mica powder I used! It's otherwise clear. The iridescent micas can have some cool looks if done right but I'm still working on that part lol

Testing materials.

[Customs of Note @CustomsofNote]

The end result is still a bit rough and requires some clean up but I'm pretty happy to have a workable cast. Now I'm testing out materials and processes to see what i like the best. It is its own experiment but I'm having a good time.

The idea for D-Buttons on the pro controller came from long before I considered making dice. It just happens that when I started dice making, I had the motivation to try and make something out of it.

2) I've had an even more secret project that I've been working on and I now have a working prototype. So hey, have a pic.

[Customs of Note @CustomsofNote]

I realized that the button pad for the D-Pad lined up incredibly well with the joycon D-Buttons so I cut up a joycon, grinded down the D-Pad's little holding bracket, created some longer custom D-Buttons, and used modeling clay to fill in the front.

Sorry I've been a bit absent on posts. There are two big things that are slowing me down on that regard.

1) Engraving dice by hand is time consuming, messy, and generally not enjoyable. I'm currently saving up to get some custom dice designed to make things much better.

[Customs of Note @CustomsofNote]

Boy this mold is way bigger than it needs to be. I wonder what it's for.

[Customs of Note @CustomsofNote]

Tonight was frustrating as I had my first big material spill but I managed to get what I wanted to take care of done. Hopefully by the end of the week I'll have something cool to show you all!

[Customs of Note @CustomsofNote]

This set turned out quite nicely. I'll get them cleaned up and engraved later because this is a very busy weekend.

[Customs of Note @CustomsofNote]

Ok take two of this set is looking so, so much better than the last.

Painted the blue and silver set i showed off earlier. I managed to fix the hole in the D20 which is nice but they're still a little scuffed. Still, I quite like them!

[Customs of Note @CustomsofNote]

On a more disappointing note, I tried making a green and purple set based off of colors you all gave me earlier but they wound up having a bunch of bubbles. I'll definitely be remaking these later.

[Customs of Note @CustomsofNote]

I have at least one set that should be done polishing tonight so looking forward to how that one turns out 👀

[Customs of Note @CustomsofNote]

I think my next set of dice might also be a bit scuffed. I'm gonna have to figure out what's causing this.

[Customs of Note @CustomsofNote]

Reply to this with a color and I'll pick two or three to make a set of dice with. I'm feeling it.
