Stained Glass d20 for RPG fans
I love these stained glass versions of a d20 (20-sided dice) used by gamers for table top role playing games. This gives me yet another project to add to my list.
I have made little sea shell and sand pyramids (will post photo soon,) but now I want to try making d20s or some other size of die. At least I won’t have to worry about filling it with sand and shells before I finish soldering.
Looks like the numbers on the three dimensional dice are made from solder on copper foil overlays. Maybe the numbers could be painted on?

The popular board game podcast, The Spiel, featured a unique piece of art in this week’s episode: stained glass D20’s (20 sided dice). While only tangentially related to gaming (as they definitely can’t be rolled more than once), these items are so gorgeous that they deserve further mention.

I’ve done a similar project for my college sculpture class. We had to take an object that could fit in our hands, that had some form of text, and build it X100 times it’s original size. We could also use whatever materials we wanted. It was my very first stain glass project. I have it listed in my website link. Please just take a look.
It’s a D&D 8-sided green dice.
