Chess Set (Mlcad)

[Freddy Mallins]

A Medieval-styled chess set which I built using MLCad.

1234 - Bishop5 - King6 - Knight7 - Pawn8 - Queen9 - Rook1011 - HD picture (using LDraw)12 - I recently changed all the white on the board to tan, giving it that antique look13 - HD picture of the tan board (using LDraw)See this topic for an explanation of MLCad, the program that I used.To my knowledge, none of the pieces have any non-real builds to them (except maybe the horse head on the knight, but it is physically possible to separate the head from the body of a horse figure, and I'm pretty certain that the size of tire I used in the digital model would also work in real life).I should note that because of how I've rigged this up in MLCad - that is, I made the models of all the pieces and the board separately and then imported them into one, big, multi-part file - it's possible to actually play chess directly in the program.However, I should also note that I absolutely suck at chess; I just like designing the boards and pieces and such.

the pieces and the board all look nice but the set in a whole is really crowded. When playing chess you need to see the board well and the pieces are just way to big. Make the squares bigger or the pieces smaller and this will be really cool.P.S. the board detail is wonderful
