In honor of the new LEGO chess set, I am pleased to announce the Classic-Castle.com CheckMate Chess Contest!



What is the Classic-Castle... ugh... C6 Contest? I’m glad you asked!

Category 1: Chess Piece

Create a single chess piece, any medieval style theme. This would include Castle, Ninja, Ancients, etc.

Category 2: Chess set

Create all 16 pieces needed for one Chess faction. This includes 8 pawns, 2 rooks, 2 knights, 2 bishops, 1 queen and 1 king. Any medieval style theme is allowed.

Learn more HERE.

Have fun!

--Anthony

Well, rats. I was about to propose a Chess Set contest, but I would have proposed it with no restrictions on theme. Medieval themes would of course have been well represented, but I think we would have seen some interesting entries in other genres too, such as Space, Pirates, Robots, and so on.

I suppose we could still have a more wide-open contest, and let participants in the Classic-Castle.com one submit their entries to both...

Best,
- Joe
