Dice Pictures for Image Recognition

This archive contains a thousand images showing random arrangements of two ordinary right-handed dice (where the pips on opposite sides add up to 7, and the sides containing 1, 2 and 3 pips are arranged anticlockwise around a shared vertex).

These images were created for a programming challenge at codegolf.stackexchange.com, but might be useful for testing machine learning and image processing algorithms in general. They were made by running a Python script in Blender v2.79. The Blender files and Python script are also included in this archive, so you can create additional images if you like.
