Hello
Would anyone know how to make prototype dice unusual shape?
Cannot buy dice in shops as have to make own unusual shape dice.
I am in UK by the way.
Also UK board game artists?

Perhaps if you told us what exactly you meant by unusual we could help you better? Do you mean dice that aren't 6 sided? Or do you mean die that have special graphics on the faces?

Hello
It would be dice that are NOT 6 sided. However I realise the unequal probability of such things.
WHat could I make the prototypes out of?
Thanks

If you're looking for regular polyhedra, try teacher supply stores. I remember seeing quite a few regular polyhedra roughly the shape of dice for custom use (including some cool transparent 12-siders).

If you're looking for irregular polyhera, you could check out craft stores from found items that have the number of sizes you want (possibly oversized beads/gems, etc.) or even craft something from modeling clay.

See if you have Showcase Comics Stores in your area.
