greatcrusade08 Posted June 30, 2011 Author Share Posted June 30, 2011 As I am in the process of moving I currently haven't got Internet access at home and at work image sites like photobucket are blocked, so I'm afraid I can't see the images.Is there any chance you can host the images on the B&C rather than on a photo sharing site? ill send you an email asap.. so far the favourite option seems to be the blue/green with gold.. is everyone happy with this option to replace the scarb blue with gold choice? ill send across TECs artwork see if he cant run up another sample Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/230128-ultramarine-dice/page/9/#findComment-2806956 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ethrion Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 I agree the symbol of the sample was a little off. As nice as it would be to have a little skull inside of the 'U' I'd have to vote for no skull bottom right option. Nice plain blue with pure white 'U' symbol.

Thanks. ive changed that for you this is the dice colour people seem to be favouring.. im going to have to go with consensus on following decisions a weve only the one colour option left. do we all agree to use this colour as a replacement? people can still change thier colours to one of the existing options if they wish, just let me know http://www.chessex.com/Dice/Gemini/images/Gemini3BlueGreen_thum.jpg ive sent across TECs artwork, ive only included the plain 'u' and not the skull option.. everyone seemed to favour the plain artwork instead. thanks TEC for sorting that for me.. ill let you all know what response i get Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/230128-ultramarine-dice/page/9/#findComment-2806972 Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Emperor's Champion Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 I'm not clear on if everyone favors the ℧ by itself because they think the skull can't be done properly or if they just like it less. I'll go with whatever the majority prefer but have a slight preference for the w/skull version, due to the "this side up" effect it provides and the fact that the full Chapter symbol actually does have a skull (....and 3 bars, and a sunburst). In any case, I'd be interested in knowing if Chessex CAN do the skull version, for future reference, if nothing else. Limitations and Possibilities • This is not a photographic process. Full color is not available. • Any line graphic or text is possible. • Very fine detail can be achieved. • Production runs of 10 dice or more are possible. • This unique process and great Chessex dice colors are a fantastic combination. Honestly, I think they very probably CAN do it. They have dice patterns with elaborate Celtic knots, a dice with several entire lines of text, and other crazy-detailed stuff, so a skull probably isn't remotely an issue. Honestly, I was kinda wondering if they could get that stray pixel sized dot off to the left side. I doubt it, but it'd be kinda cool if that's the level of detail they can achieve (that spot is part of the aforementioned "stencil" effect on the original. Like a stray spot of paint). For the record, I'm currently still(-ish) setup like this- TEC: 50 - 20 Blue - 5 Red - 20 Gemini Blue-Green w/ Gold - 5 Vortex Blue w/ Gold Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/230128-ultramarine-dice/page/9/#findComment-2807220 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chaptermaster Graymantle Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 I rather like the skull, but I believe I will go for the plain no skull Agemo version anyway. Blue with white pips, as stated before. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/230128-ultramarine-dice/page/9/#findComment-2807331 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seahawk Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 On the contrary, I think the skull will turn out perfect. 16mm dice aren't small, after all. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/230128-ultramarine-dice/page/9/#findComment-2807342 Share on other sites More sharing options...

litlamzetiv Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 I think the skull would look fine, but I prefer it without. And the mock-up die is definitely too stylized for me, TEC's rendition (Although grainy) is a better concept.

Ethrion Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 If the skull is do-able then I'm all for it - either way my vote goes for the bottom right option in both of TEC's graphics for the standard blue w/ white pips dice.

greatcrusade08 Posted July 1, 2011 Author Share Posted July 1, 2011 new design ala TEC http://i708.photobucket.com/albums/ww87/greatcrusade08/DSCN0887.jpg http://i708.photobucket.com/albums/ww87/greatcrusade08/DSCN0886.jpg is everyone happy with the green/blue with gold as a direct replacement.. ill change those who have agreed, but i maye have to send some pms to expidite matters.. also we need to come to an agreement about the skull or no skull... some of the guys are adamant the dont want it and others would like it.. however that would be 2 different designs and the costs would increase Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/230128-ultramarine-dice/page/9/#findComment-2807826 Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Emperor's Champion Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 Looks awesome. Skull would just be the icing on the cake at this point, so I'll leave that up to you guys to figure out.

greatcrusade08 Posted July 1, 2011 Author Share Posted July 1, 2011 my own personal feelings is that id rather not have the skull, but if the vote is to have it included then ill be ok with that too Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/230128-ultramarine-dice/page/9/#findComment-2807874 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tranc Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 I guess we can't have the skull just on the red dice (for sergeant) because that would be an extra design, huh?

Captain Idaho Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 my own personal feelings is that id rather not have the skull, but if the vote is to have it included then ill be ok with that too I vote for NOT including the skull. It makes the thing too busy and I would prefer the standard "U" to be very easily identified. Of course, I'm flexible if I'm out voted on this. I know the full Ultramarines symbol includes a skull and all the rest of the trimmings, but we can't have all of those bits in there so we may as well stick to the recognisable basics.

Brother Valerius Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 I like the new prototype! Not that I want to be a jerk about it, but I'm not flexible on the skull matter if the vote goes that way. If it does, then it does... but I don't want dice with that design, so if that's what the majority wants for the design then I'll be bowing out.

greatcrusade08 Posted July 1, 2011 Author Share Posted July 1, 2011 i think thats the kicker, we cant just have the skull design as too many people want the basic.. the only other option is to do a 'twin' order and have a number of dice made with the skull emblem.. this wouldnt chnage the price per for the current 'non skull' design (aslong as we till have 500 made at this design).. but it would mean an increase in price for eveyone wanting a skull design Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/230128-ultramarine-dice/page/9/#findComment-2808031 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seahawk Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 If it's going to cost extra then let's not bother with the skull and just go for a simple design. I like it on the mock up a lot!
