Title: Model dice
Description: Create a 3D model of a die (plural dice).  Make the dots distinguishable from the surface (e.g., by modeling impressions with white or black paint).  The die should have rounded edges or be stylized, a simple box will not suffice.

BRL-CAD provides several ways to model 3D geometry including a graphical tool named mged, another named archer, and various ways to create geometry using scripts.  Create your model using BRL-CAD, not via import.  Create one top-level combination to group everything together.  Intersection of rpp with a sph may be helpful...

Start with some MGED tutorials if you haven't yet, which are a separate task!  You can learn the basics of 3D modeling in just an hour or two.

SUBMIT a PNG image, your geometry in BRL-CAD ".g" file format, and a text explaining how&why you made your model the way that you did.
