DIE! (pixel die)

(1/4) > >>

BeL:
Ok, so I'm going to make a java dice generator (don't ask why) so here's a die I pixeled to go with the program(\o/)



It took me about two hours. The things Im worried about are the "dots" cause I have no idea how to make iso circles but I tried it anyway. C&C would be apreciated  :).

Thank you in advance.

Latest edition: + a 4d :

Peppermint Pig:
Creating iso circles depends on your ability to adust the curvature using anti-aliasing techniques. At that size, it's fairly easy to do.  For the left 'ones' side, you would put darker AA shading on the top left and bottom right corners around the circle. I think you get my drift :)

BTW, I would suggest you remove the black outline from the inner area (keep the black border), and lighten it up to a dark gray.

Should the dots on the 4 side come in from the edge a bit?

BeL:
Thanks alot pep, I have no idea if what I did has anything to do with what you told me, but I think it looks better :)

so... here's an update:

-

My problem now, is that the die looks "boring" ... so what can I do to liven it up a bit?

Thanks again.

Negative Gravity:
I would suggest a lighter highlight... It's looking good so far.

Darien:
The dots look much better.  I think changing the black lines to gray isn't enough.  Instead, there should be a smooth in between color of the two shades on the sides, since the edges of dice are curved, and not abrupt like the dark line would suggest.  I'm not sure what you can do to liven it up... it is just a die...
