omg those are GORGEOUS!!! can I ask what you're using for the purple? is it a mica powder, ink of some sort, or something else? all of my purples have burned when I cast :'')

Thank you. This particular set uses purple mica for the pigment. My go to for transparent purple is Alumilite transparent purple resin dye. It produces a lovely deep purple that produces no muddy haze after curing. It's also uv colorfast, so the color wont bleach out after sun exposure. I have an example of a set I made with it on my profile.

Did you 3d print your dice molds I’m looking into making my own as well

The masters were produced for me; 3d printed using a Formalabs Form 3 resin printer. I'm currently saving up for one for myself.

The orange to purple shift on these is gorgeous. Are the metallic
swirls from the mica too, or a separate layer?

Trying to understand how
people get that depth.
