3D model description

Take your passion for chess to a whole new level with the creatively crafted Twisted Pixels Chess Set. Every angle of every piece is twisted into a pixelated medley of symmetrical non-conformity. Sounds crazy, right? Good, because that's exactly what we were going for!

Impress your friends. Demolish your enemies. You are... the Chess Master of Twisted Pixelation!

Okay, maybe that was a bit dramatic. Or maybe we're biased by an intense affection for the game. Moving on...

DIMENSIONS
At 100% scale, these chess pieces are designed to suit a mid-size chess board. You can always scale them up or down to travel chess or a tournament size board - whatever suits your needs. They're current sizes are as follows:

King = 3.18 x 3.18 x 12.42cm (1.25 x 1.25 x 4.89in)
Queen = 3.18 x 3.18 x 10.13cm (1.25 x 1.25 x 3.99in)
Bishop = 3.18 x 3.18 x 8.12cm (1.25 x 1.25 x 3.20in)
Knight = 3.18 x 3.68 x 6.78cm (1.25 x 1.45 x 2.67in)
Rook = 3.18 x 3.18 x 5.57cm (1.25 x 1.25 x 2.19in)
Pawn = 2.23 x 2.23 x 4.95cm (0.88 x 0.88 x 1.95in)

This is a very easy print, great for beginners. Each piece prints in place with no supports required. Please note that the Chess Board is NOT Included! It is a work in progress and will be sold separately in the near future. If you're reading this, it's not available yet. I will delete this paragraph and replace it with a link to the chess board as soon as it's ready. Want it sooner? Message me and let me know. I'll try to move it higher on our project list.

Enjoy!
