Designed and printed it myself. I went for a gothic/chibi style but made sure every piece is instantly recognizable and playable. Super happy with how it turned out!

I know it looks like two different shades of red but it’s actually too thin layer thickness of the stripe on the board.

That said, I do think I should have gone with a darker shade of red in the first place.

Really excited to share this blitz set I’ve been working on! So many materials and techniques went into making it, resin was just one of them. There are LEDs in the board too so it lights up or glows-in-the-dark when charged by UV. What are your thoughts about it? I’m happy to share more on the creation process if you have any questions.

I created this normal 3d piece that works like all the pieces, but if you look at it from above it creates an optical illusion.

This piece is the bishop, should I do the whole set?

My friend’s table is slightly askew in the middle and so this mousepad board has always been the best set up. I love the contrast.

The board is Shag, 30x30. The King is 8.5 inches tall. Each piece is filled with sand.

he loves to laser engrave things and the border came out sick. this is number 5 i reckon that he has done, i have one of his very first ones in an earlier post.

Given that I didn't find this set nowhere or that it was unprintable, I decided to model it myself. The pieces comes from the videogame Devil May Cry 3 I played now too long ago. I wanted to know what's your thought on these. No photos as of now, I still have to print them but I posed them to be easily printed with no supports (except for the Knight), so I expect them to come out nicely

I know it looks like I’ve used two different reds but it’s actually a case of not making the layer on the board thick enough to get a true colour.

I now think the whole thing might benefit from using a darker shade though.

I’m also giving real consideration to running a kickstarter…

Finally got my dream chess set and it comes with the board btw it's perfect
