Nice work! Did you design the chessmen yourself, they look really good.
I notice that you have the grain on the black & white square perpendicular to each other. It's unusual, but looks good.

Thanks mate. Yeah i actually did thought it would look good with a different design than the usual set of standard pieces.
Yeah the grains are running different ways, thought i would try to see how it looked and turned out better than i expected

The pieces look great :) I love the perpendicular grain, it gives a nice difference to your set :)

Very nice work. :2tsup:

Love the grain on the board and the chess pieces WOW.

The only thing that bugs/irks me is the big blobs of green felt on the bottom of the pieces.

I would have thinner felt but have it in from the edge so it looks like those magnificent pieces are then floating on the board.
