Large 20 Sided Dice

I don’t think this really has a point except for decoration, but if you want it can be used for a game of D&D, it would just be a bit inconvenient.

Supplies

You will need:
A cardboard box (I used a vans box)
Scissors or an utility knife
Ruler
Pencil
Glue gun
Paint
D&D dice for reference

Draw It Out

For this part you just need the ruler, cardboard, and pencil.
First you take the ruler and decide how big you want your triangles to be, mine where about two inches.
Next you need to use your pencil to mark the length on the cardboard.
Lastly you take the pencil and draw out your triangles.

Cut Out the Triangles

Next Use the utility knife to cut out the triangles that you traced on the last step.
Be careful and try not to cut yourself in the process, you wouldn’t want there to be any blood on the die would you?

Now you need to glue it all together.
Take your glue gun and cardboard triangles and start to glue them together.
I found that the actual dice that I was using as a reference helped to figure out where everything went.

Paint It

It is time to paint it. There isn’t much to this step except to just paint the dice!
I used black paint but you can use whatever color you want.
If you use lighter colors then I would advise that you paint it white before painting it that color

Paint the Numbers

It is now time to paint the numbers on.
I used neon green paint just because I thought it looked good with the black but again use any colors you want!
And using the dice for reference helps quite a bit!

Once you have finished this part you should be completely finished!
