These Dice Took 8 Months To Make

Come along as I make my first ever set of Vampire the Masquerade dice, and listen to my tale of why it took me more than half a year to get them done!
Don't mind the blurry footage, I'm still figuring out my new camera, lol

These were 100% worth the wait, that blood effect in the red dice is incredible ❤

[@siliinnorway]

Incredible dice. Talk about passion for your work. It shows. Vampire the Masquerade was my first ticket into TTRPG's, but that was quite a few editions ago. Over twenty years now. So this brings back a bit of nostalgia.

beautiful craftsmanship! the amount of sanding and all those after sanding steps that i had no idea existed as a part of dice making.. woah. so much work. and they came out beautifully.

[@alchemistsattic]

Aw, thank you :D

[@mikedell3144]

Absolutely gorgeous work; both the black and red dice look phenomenal. Thanks and keep the videos rolling.

[@saxmanseldon]

Amazing dice! Very nicely done!! Also, I loved the cameo at the end. 😺

[@kokopelliguitarist]

Dude those are sick! The liquid blood effect turned out really well, and I love how the whole set looks together and how you incorporated your logo into the designs. My D&D group recently became a VtM group and I have no idea how you're supposed to use all those dice (I've just been rolling regular D10s) but this video made me want a set! XD

Feel free to hit me up if you're ever looking for something custom!

[@marcustec8]

basicaly, instead of numbers, you have success and fails... ehehehe the other type is hunger dices, so they mark also bestial failure and bestial critical

[@marcustec8]

(this works for V5 system, where the success is 6 and above)

[@randomeditspremium]

Really good video quality! And really nice dice!

[@ashethdinnama3913]

I love the ending pictures and music

[@trevclaridge]

The new camera looks really good! Nice job!

[@violettracey]

[@yolandiehamilton1607]

I have been looking into making cores like that for a lava lamp set but wasn't sure how that would end up. Thanks for testing that for me! 😂😂 Seriously though, these are gorgeous.

[@alchemistsattic]

Happy to help! I definitely want to mess around with the idea some more as well :D

[@Hughsllc]

Awesome video

[@alchemistsattic]

Thanks!

I'm in the process of making vtm dice for my sister (just d10s, nothing fancy) and QUICKLY ran into the same issue you did in terms of "oh god, how many molds do I have to make again?" :') Also, I've been making dice off and on for a year but only recently stumbled upon your channel, and I really enjoy your videos!

[@alchemistsattic]

Aw, thanks! Good luck with the VtM dice. It's SO MANY molds XD

[@hungryrussiangirl]

I never understood why the dice are so expensive. Now I kinda understand.

[@alchemistsattic]

They're a surprising amount of work, lol

[@ronaldmiller8230]

I’ve been wondering what are those discs you use? I’ve been using zona paper but cut down to small squares and taping them down to the wheel.

[@alchemistsattic]

It's a second-hand lapidary wheel (and disks from a lapidary wheel) that I attached green zona paper to with some spray adhesive. I just pull the zona off and glue some more down when it starts getting too worn. I just use it for the initial sanding and then move over to 1000, 2000, and 3000 grit sand paper by hand before tossing them in my polishing tumbler.

[@ronaldmiller8230]

@@alchemistsattic I’ve been using a small pottery wheel. I’ve been running it for the zona paper but I like to do the actual sanding by hand on a sheet of tempered glass. I run them through 1200 / 1500 / 2000 then move to the wheel for initial polish with a tumbler for a couple days before hitting them 1 last time with the white zona and some polishing compound. If there is a defect I can sand out I’ll start with 1000 grit. Thanks for the reply!

[@Coltonladuke]

What kind of ink do you use to darken dice

[@alchemistsattic]

just black alcohol ink :)
