Those look awesome! Thanks for sharing with us! Looking forward to more 😊

Love these! And the super intense music is *chef's kiss*. lol

[@alchemistsattic]

The dice felt almost bloody or magically ominous, I thought, so I tried to match those vibes with the music :)

Is there a possibility of achieving a similar result without a pressure cooker? If so, what tip would be best? I LOVE YOUR WORK

[@alchemistsattic]

The pressure pot (slightly different than a pressure cooker- it doesn't have the heat or moisture) is just to get rid of bubbles, so if you don't care about tiny bubbles it's not really necessary.
That said, if you don't have one, there's things you can do to mitigate bubbles, like giving your resin a little bit of time for the air to escape before putting the lids on, using a thinner resin, or warming your resin to make it thinner. Using sprue molds/molds with holes in the lids might help prevent bubbles as well, because air will then be able to escape while curing. The pressure pot does a lot for getting rid of the bubbles, though, so it would be difficult to get dice that are as clear as mine without one.

What liquid do you use if you don't mind saying?

[@alchemistsattic]

For regular liquid cores I fill the spheres entirely with a mixture of water and glycerine and a tiny amount of alcohol. This set had cores that were half that mixture, and half mineral oil.

Fascinating! Thank you for sharing
