- Like a science experiment gone wild, these Petri Dish Dice are unlike anything we have created so far! And they are looking mighty fine if I do say so myself!

I had already filmed this video prior to learning about this, but I will not be using this mica powder going forward. If you need the exact same product that I used, then the link is there. However, I highly recommend you get cruelty free powders from locations like mad micas - www.madmicas.com/collections/... , as these are what I will be using going forward.)

I am starting to believe that the die he makes are based off of puns he came up with and not the other way around
Write some puns, THEN make the dice to match. It's the Rybonator way
No joke, when I homebrew items I do the exact same thing. 90% of my ideas seem to be stupid titles with a play on words that I fashion into an actual item after the fact

I think a Circle of Spores Druid would fit great with this!
Oh yes! Absolutely 😁
That or a Grave Cleric
Druidic Dice has an awesome petri set for Circle of Spores!
Or even a Fathomless Warlock, where the petri looks like coral
@@Rybonator I know I'm a bit late with colour suggestions but would it be possible to use glow-in-the-dark ink with these? If you could make one with glowy purple or teal tendrils, it'd be an awesome spore druid die!
"petri dish dice"
me, a nerd fresh out of a bacteriology course: *war flashbacks*
I’m not goin’ back!
Cue Fortunate Son
Me in the middle of a Plant Pathology degree *PTSD triggered*
Aidan Nel do plants know when they’re being eaten?
I once didn't let the hoop cool properly after flaming it when doing a smear culture; singed an o-shaped divot in my agar :|
As a biochemistry major your puns hit me hard today...
Did they Grow on you? I spent a while in the Lab writing them ;D
@@Rybonator OH COME ON NOW
How many did you have prepared?!!
How proficient are you in drawing hexagons?
@@guyvingelli9046 I have a plus 7 bonus as a level one student in all mathematical and scientific classes
How about u?
PandaCatPlayz I have Expertise with BS
I was literally right about to try experimenting with the Petri dish method, thanks, I'll probably have a few less failed attempts now
Boom! Saved you some headache :)
@@Rybonator it's alright, the first attempt was still a fail, I was almost done, got up to do something then knocked them all over as I sat back down lol
Petri dish is fun and easy. The learning curve is small definitely there but small. Once you've mastered it, you can experiment like dragging a toothpick through it :P. Different curing times, using metallics (there's tricks to that), different alcohol ink brands, inclusions, different shaped mould etc.
Everyone always dose demonic patrons how about a Celestial pact. So something with silver, gold, and blue. Like the Angles from Bayonetta
That would be pretty cool honestly 😃
i was just thinking that a little touch of gold is underappreciated in the warlock aesthetic overall
Petri dish dice? I can definitely get down with the sickness.
This was certainly not what I was expecting when I clicked on this video. I want so many of these dice, but I would never be able to use these dice because I would just end up holding up the game while I got lost staring into my dice. The purple and gold D20 has to be my absolute favourite, and it certainly doesn't hurt that my favourite colour is purple.
You are a purpleholic, I'm a gold addict, these are a perfect marriage of the two! :D
Oh...oh no ... OH NOOOO IM GONNA MAKE SO MANY OF THESE!!!! Thank you so much for showing the ones that didn't work out too!
Of course! If it helps prevent disaster on someone else's end, then it's a job well done :)
The irony here is I'm watching this instead of studying for my microbiology test. Welp.
Just show them the video and say "That. Germs do this."
You're sure to get an A
@@Rybonator HA. Yeah I'm sure my professor would loooove that
Haven’t watched yet but I know it’s going to be great because it’s your channel
This is so sweet :) thanks Enri!
Liquid glitter and rybonator, name a more iconic duo!
The final purple die is... unbelievably beautiful. Just wondering how it'd look with silver ink for the numbers.
This style could make some really cool Venom/Carnage flavoured dice!
Ahh dang, missed opportunity! :)
A video on the bare bones, least expensive way to make dice that aren't perfect but usable would be amazing. I think a pressure pot and stuff aren't accessable to a lot of people and that makes them not want to try dice making because it looks too involved. Dice making is a fun hobby and I'd love to see more people try it!
You can buy a bare bones kit for about $35 at Michaels (and they almost always have 20% off sales running). You get 16oz resin, a mold (you choose the shape), 3-4 alcohol inks (you choose color set), and a "filler" (various glitter, confetti, etc). The only things I bought before starting were silicone tools (measuring cup, stirrer). I've gotten A LOT more since, but that's cause that little kit was enough to get me hooked.
I'd say these dice look sick, but I can't tell if that's fitting or ironic
Bit of this, bit of that ;D
I love that you show the failures, it makes the hobby seem more accessible
Of course! It's hard to get this right, and I used to get very discouraged, so I hope that others see that and don't give up :)
@@Rybonator Hell yeah man, that is the positive energy i enjoy from your videos
@@Ironhalo3000 well I'll keep it coming then! :)
May i just say thankyou for taking the time to mention using protective equipment every time. It's really refreshing
That looks like the Dark Crystal. Cool looking dice.
Haha yeah they kinda do! Glad you like them!
I always found deep, royal colour blues go nicely with a warlock. Purple is a given.
Purple and eldritch blast go together like apple pie and chevrolet
For 1 mil subs you should make a d20 entirely out of gold.
You get me to 1 mil, and I'll make it happen
@@Rybonator is that a challenge?
@@vanerek Sure sounds like it! 😁😈
Two D20 looks I would loooove to see for the warlock dice are:
Warlock Pact of the ArchFey: transparent glitter green with yellow tendrils
Warlock Pact of the Genii: Various shades of blue and white
I like the fey idea a LOT!
My warlock I just made has a Marid Djinn as a patron so the blues/white/silver would fit her perfectly.
I find it funny that I watch all of these videos of yours despite being unable to make most of them myself (due to money). Just looks so fun and I hope to sometime make my own set of dice in the future
That's how I felt about Peter Brown's videos, and now I do my own thing :) We all get there eventually!
Omg this is why my coaster didnt set! Well then, least i know now, also the black abd white dice looked amazing
I wish i could make my own dice but the equipment is too expensive ;_;
The dice really look as cool as heck
Getting to a higher level is a bit expensive sadly :/ But you can always save up bit by bit, eventually the hobby pays for itself :)
These are awesome. Honestly probably the second die type ive seen i actually like but the other vids were amazing just for the knowledge of knowing of how something might turn out b4 dumpin money/time into. "They do the work so u dont have tooooooooo!" Or something like that.
If you just buy the resin and molds and sand paper it's pretty affordable. You don't NEED to go all out and do a pressure pot and have expensive additives. It cost me about 30$ to get small batch resin mix and some molds. Thats really all you need to get started.
@@LouNeptune Ok thx
@@phil2377 to be fair you can get large quantities of resin and molds off of amazon if you want to create your own style you could always get some clay fill a sacrificial mold then let it harden and carve out the style of letter/number you want. A pressure pot is easy enough to make you can find plenty of videos here on youtube and finding sales at places like tractor supply or harbor freight(I am in southern US store names may be different around you) make it relatively cheap as you don't need to buy it all at once to build it. I am working towards it now myself.
I have been trying to do this for 2 weeks. This helped so much! Thanks!
This is so cool!!! The purple and gold is perfect!
That purple 'n' gold petri d20 is honestly incredible. Fantastic job~
Found your tutorial vids and binge-watched them all. Just made my first set of dice, they suck but I'm hooked. Thanks for all of the great info!
Wow. "Plague, Inc. dice!" Cool!
Haha oh man, should have gotten sponsored!
I feel like I've found a secret little side of youtube and I LOVE IT
Come join the dice making rabbit hole of CZcams haha
Oh how cultured of you! Your enthusiasm for these is infectious!
Really appreciating knowing what not to do, and why. Thanks for these lessons!
That last purple dice is literally breathtaking!!! 💖😍
I'm so going to have to try this method when i have the spare cash to start making dice. I already found the pressure pot and my bf has an air compressor and I get paid next week do its finally time to start! Warlock colors can really depend on the patron. Dark one has a very purple, red, black feel but a Fey patron would be more green, blue, and purple. So basically purple to some extent haha.
That's awesome! Best of luck next week and in the future eevee! :)
Currently teaching myself how to sew and this video is a very nice reminder that failures are a part of the process and are totally okay! I love your positive attitude and spirit, thanks for another great video
I recently ordered supplies for making my first dice molds and I already have some crazy plans but now I have one more!
That Purple dice is gorgeous! It gives me a warlock vibe, I wanna try making them! 💜
I recently bought a 3d printer and after binge watching some of your videos, you are inspiring me to try making my own resin dice.
Something I've done with the alcohol ink is using a solid metallic ink instead of the white. It works just as well and it gives your pieces more shimmer
I had heard that the metal ones don't go down as well as white :o But I'll give it a shot!
I know this was the probably the hardest method yet, but congratulations! I think this is my favorite piece you’ve made! I’m dying to try it out for myself!!! Thank you so much for this video!
Saying each video that each new project is your favourite thing that you made is actually fantastic, it means you’re growing as a creator, honing your craft and improving with every project! I hope you keep on thinking every new thing you make is the best, that’s just progress 💕 I can’t wait to see your next project. Warlocks for me will always be deep purple and black, I’m basic, I know 😌
That final die is INCREDIBLE!!!!! I want a full jumbo display set!! Navy and gold says "warlock" to me.
Hearing you say "Auric Armor Gold" is like the dice making version of Bob Ross saying "Titanium White": I know it's gonna happen, but it never gets old
I adore purple dice I'm so excited to see what you make!
At some point I would love to try and make a set of dice but I'm more than happy watching you create the amazing pieces of art
These are absolutely amazing dice! Just wow!
Ahhh I've been waiting for a warlock themed set since I started watching your channel, in fact it was the first comment I ever left for you and that you replied to.
My vote is for a pitch black and eldritch green with a touch of silver maybe, to really capture the dark tapestry of the void with a hint of sinister nebula like green and silver for the implication of stars.
Oh I'm digging that idea for sure :) It's time I try and finally finish your request! :)
I have had horrible experiences with people when it came to playing D&D, but I love watching Dice Making. I found you a couple days ago and I have been binging non-stop. Thank you for your work, I find it very relaxing.
i think this is the coolest method you've done yet!
Thank you for making these videos. They calm me so much, and are just entertaining. About a week ago, I was starting to have a panic attack. I popped one of your videos on and calmed down before you even popped out the dice. Again, thank you.
This absolutely made my night Lazy Beans :) I am so glad that I can help be a positive force for you. I hope you are having an absolutely wonderful day, and feeling much better now.
I have so much more respect for you than I already had before after reading your description. I always like to support creators and use any affiliated links, and I'm so glad you said what you said about the mica flakes. Serious props man, that's fucking awesome !
I would have had no idea if it weren't for awesome commenters telling me about it. So I owe it to y'all :)
Your videos have been a huge inspiration. I watched all of your videos before I got myself a little workspace set up in a grow tent to vent the fumes outside, and started making dice maybe 6 or 7 months ago. I've made 3 and I don't think they would have come out nearly as nice as they did if I didn't binge watch your tutorials beforehand. I got a mold and a large assortment of mica powders from DruidDice to work with, and even ordered a new one with 2 sets of frame inserts. We'll see how those go - but I think it'll go relatively smoothly thanks to your tutorials.
I've been busy with work (and a lack of motivation due to mental health) so I haven't made any dice in a while. I'm getting that itch again though, so I've been re-watching your dice making videos for some ideas and inspiration for my own sets.
So I just want to say thank you for all the work that put into making these dice, and these videos. I truly would not have been able to do this without your guidance.
I really appreciate you sharing your mistakes as well as your successes!
Thanks Abby :) I am glad people find that helpful!
Holy crud! The moment I saw the first image of how these days turned out, I knew I had to watch this video. These are some absolutely gorgeous dice! I’m really excited to try this out when I eventually get a pressure pot!
Thank you Like! I'm really glad that you like the final results! Can't wait to see what you make :)
A possible suggestion for a future video? I recently discovered the ancient Royal Game of Ur and instead of buying a game, I want to build it. What I would like to learn is, how to pour the four, D4 dice needed with no numbers BUT....with two white(or off-color)corners. Yea, I could paint the corners but well...you know. lol It would be awesome to be able to pour the corners , then the rest in a 'nail polish color' called ''Vamp'', which a red base with a thin black overcoat, so the red 'bleeds' through like an under-painting and then two bright red corner tips on each one and also, the game requires seven, alternate colored, 2-sided 'backgammon' markers with 5 dots on one side, per player. Thanks for any help and keep up the good work with the awesome videos!
Awesomeee!! I really love the purple one, it turned out sooo good!! That one is totally my fav color scheme for a warlock, all purpleish and golden 😍 I do have a warlock and I painted the mini myself with a friend's help (was my first time painting a mini and turned out nice!) and I painted her coat purple, and her clothes blue, white and silver, but now I wish I used more gold like this dice!
Purple and gold are the colors of royalty ;)
Watching dice making videos ignites a desire in me. I feel like if I stare at them too long my pupils will dilate like a cat's when they see something they want. I only have one set of dice and my inner goblin yearns for more!
Your intros always fill me with equal parts rage and admiration for the sheer amount of puns you can make
We'll mission accomplished then ;)
I was trying to find a good way to make a Venom dice set for my brother that looks like the symbiote encased in glass look. This method seems perfect. Thank you!
Oh man, the black and white one is perfect for that!
these look sooooo good!! i’m really interested to see what a wizard set might look like - perhaps a red/yellow and white combo for a fireball sort of look? that would look awesome. :)
also I really just want to thank you for all the amazing content you put out, not to mention how you actually highlight your mistakes as a “what NOT to do” for others. I actually just got a pressure pot yesterday and I’m so excited to try out all kinds of color combos and amazing things!
Oh we HAVE to have some fireball stuff for the wizards :)
Also thank you Kelsey! I'm glad you like what I do :) can't wait to see what you end up creating! Send pics 😁
The final die looks gorgeous! And the puns...oh the puns!
Given the "brain" that the last die had, as well as the color, I think it's a perfect die for a Psychic/Psionic character.
This dice style does look really cool. As far as colours go for warlocks well that really depends on the patron. So here are some examples:
Fiend Warlock : Red and Black. The expected colour combination but it's a classic for a reason.
Arch Fey Warlock: A light green mixed with white.
Great Old One Warlock: Dark Green mixed with black.
Celestial: Gold and White. I think this one in particular would look cool.
Hexblade: Silver and Black. Not sure if silver would work but the silver for the metal of the blade and black for the necromantic abilities it brings.
Undying Warlock: It's undying so no one cares. For real though maybe a simple white and black. Not sure if that would even work but it could look quite striking.
That is an awesome result in the end.
I must say, your puns make you a cultured man.
The inside of the final dice looks a fungal forest and I think that would be perfect for a Circle of Spores Druid.
Oh man, this is such a good idea!!! My baby brother is a mycology fan, and now I’m dying to make him some mushroom dice!!
Ahhh! Me want!! Very kool! Always enjoy your videos. Makes me imagine your a wizard teaching us a new spell or two lol👍
that purple die has me SHOOK man!!!!! my dnd character that i hope to play someday is a purple tiefling who i want to eventually double-class as rogue/warlock, so it would be absolutely perfect for her!
the tendrils look so amazing so much
Gunmetal, dark metallic. Dark Blue with a ting of neon purple or Barf green essence. Red or Blood color.
Gunmetal and warlocks go together like apple pie and chevrolet!
@@Rybonator love your channel! Gives me inspiration! Have you tried any of the UV curing resin? Probably need more translucent molds. Super curious!!
I've been wanting to try this technique since I got into petri dish resin stuff. I only have normal sized die molds but I can't wait to try this out tonight.
Give it a shot and let me know how it goes :)
@@Rybonator Will do!
i really want to start making dice aswell, it looks like so much fun and i started to get a dice obsession too so this would satisfy that needing desire of having more dice
these are by far the coolest ones you have made or i have even seen
Thanks Donald! I'm glad you like them :)
That purple one is amazing.
That is very cool. One of the best you've made, imo.
Looks amazing!!
Love that purple and gold.. i would totally get a set of those for my Warlock
Both the dice tray and the dice themselves look really good! With that last purple one for the Warlock class set, why not lean into the purple and gold, maybe pull in some silver or grey and make them a celestial Warlock? You've already got a base that has that really dark purple and the lightening effect from the petri dish effect, so it could be really cool.
This style would look so good for an ocean themed dice set (if the strands were coral or kelp)!!!
I think red and black would definitely look cool for a warlock set, and while not for a warlock, I also think a set with some neons would be really cool for a wild magic sorcerer.
Oh yeah, if I could get some holographic almost, then a wild magic sorc would be killer!
These dice are growing on me! I can't handle the viral load of how awesome these dice look. I'm feeling sick at the thought that I don't own a set of dice like these. *smirk*
That last one is amazing.
Hey Rybonator!! I’ve watched almost all your videos, and I’m actually about to go buy myself some resin lol. More hobbies!
That's awesome Hufflepuff! (Slytherin is the one true house :p. ) Can't wait to see what you make :)
I haven't tried the petri method before because I thought I would need a specific white ink, not regular alcohol ink..... And now that I learnt that I am wrong I don't have any resin left to try it.... So frustrating !! xD
Thanks for the video Ryan, it's super cool and I can't wait to try this !
Imagine how cool a big d20 would look
Also cool you mix glitter like you did with bard dice into this
This would be so cool for fireball or lightning dice
Always fun to add more glitter! 😁
just an idea: it might be advantageous to swirl a small amount of already thickening clean resin around the mould, to coat the insde of the mould.
that would give the final product a nice, uniform, clear layer on the outside. it would prvent any ink from sticking to the moulld, and would also help to compensate for it, when some spots dont quite cure perfectly.
The colors would depend on the patron, make a couple, deep blue for the great old one, vibrant green for the archfey, and finish this set for the new Genie warlock!
Oh gosh I LOVE the purple die (not because its purple or anything lol). The gold suits it perfectly since they're complimentary colors. My dice goblin brain is happy :D
That last die you made is CLEAN
I don’t even play DND but I love watching you make dice idk why
For the Warlock set, I'd use the same purple as the last dice, but with black instead of white for the tendrils!
Oh yeah, super dark! I love it :)
Green tendrils in some sort of smoky, transparent black would look cool. A metallic silver paint for the numbers would set it off nicely too imo.
I kinda want to make dice like these. That's really cool!
Wow dude, that purple with the gold numbers looks superb, definitely a Warlock color scheme. Great job :)
I love the colors of the diec tray, they work amazingly well together! The final dice looks like it could belong to some evil royal scientist to me? Either way, it turned out fantastic!
As for the warlock set, I would love to see some for a warlock with an oceanic patreon, with teal and deep blue colors (and maybe even black or turquoise glitter), although that might be a bit too specific for general class dice, thinking about it
I'm in love with this Die 😍 this die needs to be added to my collection.
Other than purple, Midnight Blue and silver, scream warlock to me.
These are SO cool, gosh!
To prevent the alcohol ink from reaching the sides, it might help to tip your mold in each direction to coat the sides with resin before adding the ink. Not sure if this would work, it's just what came to mind when I saw it.
Thanks for the video! I'm hoping to mess with this technique soon (if I can ever get my masters to print right), so now I can hopefully avoid some of these problems!
So I found this channel yesterday and I'm so glad I did. I have a couple questions when it comes to dice making. So the first question is, once I've poured the resin into the mold, do I just leave it on the side or does it need to be in heated area?
Secondly, does the resin need to be mixed within five minutes? I was not planning on buying a pressure pot until I was a little more experienced, so I thought if I gently mixed for 6 or 7minutes, it would be well mixed with less bubbles?
Finally, I know you need to mix equal parts of part A and B when mixing the resin. Do I mix the alcohol ink into one part or do I put it into the already mixed parts? Similarly can I mix white mica powder into resin coloured with alcohol ink to get that shiny math rock look?
I know that's a lot to read but any help from anyone will be appreciated :)
