It was a fairly obvious idea but one I had to make and it was a lot of
fun making the set.  Thank god for bulk purchases of the B&W tiles 2x2
from LD.  And some timely purchases of blue slope 45 2x2s. LMKWYT !

The most fun of course was the rook which is my newest "super" microfig
scale 3 donjon japanese castle.  Microfigs have grown on me since I
made some for my Great Wall of China microfig village backdrop.

Special thanks to Marc Nelson, Jr. who graciously shared his nagatina
construction idea.  Lugnet is full of such nice people.
This chess set will probably be appearing in a brickbay shop near you
soon !

(...) for the kings in addition to flag changes, but it still looks great. It is obvious that you put a lot of work into this board.

  The Chess Game
 
G'day all. Kung-Khoon Quah's chess set inspired me so much that I decided to create a basic chess board for LCAD. Currently, the board has no figures due to the theme I wished to start with. In the near future, I intend to post pictures of some (...) (24 years ago, 3-Apr-01, to lugnet.castle.ninja, lugnet.build, lugnet.cad.dat.models)
