This is the
large version of my
spindown D20 in the 'Radial' design family of dice.
The numbers on the die are arranged in a spindown pattern, which makes it easier to keep track of your life total in games. Because of this the numbers on opposing sides of the die do not add up to 21. Even though the arrangement of the numbers is not standard, great care has been taken to ensure that the die is fair and well balanced, and therefore throws should not be biased.
The die is about 40 mm (1.6") high. This size is best suited for printing in plastic. There is also a
smaller version available which will work better when printed in metal.
PLEASE NOTE: this is the spindown version of the d20. For a D20 with a regular arrangement of the numbers, as well as other dice in this design family, please see
here.
To enhance the look of the die, and to make the numbers on the die stand out more, you can color the numbers using acrylic paint and a fine brush. Because the numbers are raised above their background plane this is quite easy to do.
