Have Black ones and love them but really want white ones. |
I’m afraid there is no way White Opaque will be included in this batch.
I already did some of those in 2016 and they were the least popular of the 4 colours. Also as the inlay is black they take twice as long to paint due to requiring a couple of layers of white undercoat. |

Too bad as I would also vote for white opaque. Consider one white pearl vote as none of these. |

Hi spubbbba,
As I am really excited about those dices and appreciate your intention to produce anotehr batch.
I don`t want to miss the time when the ordering thread will be opened, may I ask how to get notified about it?
Unfortunately I can`t look everyday in the forum.
Would it be ok to place an order in advance for the different colours and you decide which colour get produced later on? E.g. I would go for 6 black and 6 purple. |

Yeah, I'd like to see the painted purple, too, but concede that you know how to work the aesthetic better than the rest of us! |

I'll update this thread with progress, the dice will take a few weeks to arrive after I order them and then it's be a month or 2 to paint them. Will try to give a week or 2's notice before the thread goes up and have it open over a weekend.
Will also update my blog here, this TFF thread and my twitter, probably my facebook group too.
I'll only be doing a 100 sets total, as it takes a while to paint them all. This means you won't be able to pre-order I am afraid. The same process as previous years will be followed.
These have proved to be very popular before and most people only got 1 set with a handful getting 2. I try to make it as fair as possible and maximise the number of people who get at least something.
I will have a few spares to replace sets that get lost in the post. Any not needed for that go up as e-bay auctions, but these have usually ended up going for crazy money. |

I voted brown because I figured no one would want brown... only to see someone else picked brown... |

Purple Pearl as my first option (went for it in the poll), orange opaque as my second choice. |

After a week of voting the poll has had over 100 individual votes so far, as well as some 2nd choices in this thread.
There are 3 clear frontrunners, white, blue and purple all pearl.
Just noticed I made a mistake with White Pearl. I should have them down as painted, since the yellow and blue will show up fine against that colour. They will need a couple of layers of white undercoat first to stop the black dulling the yellow and blue, but I am fine doing this for a new colour. Also I’d quite like a set of those for my own collection as they were my favourites of the WIL dice shown in my initial post.
Unless people would universally prefer the designs to all stay black?
So I’m going to go for those 3 as well as black Opaque. The white will be painted, the blue unpainted and the purple will depend on the exact shade of the dice. I will be putting the order in over the weekend.
I'll be using this thread and my blog for updates so feel free to add comments or ask questions here. |

Least popular, but my favourite! Glad I picked some up last time |
