3D Printed Chess Set - Ghost Chess

 Here is my final project, finally done. After two fails, with a few small adjustments and lots of help from the technicians, I finally got it to work! 

Here is what I started with:

After feedback from fellow students, we came to a few conclusions:

-The capes and fur for the king and queen should be made separately, since it would be hard to capture in rhino

-Hats may have to be made separately

-simplify the knights helmet, or make it separately

My own things that I wanted to do was have them be hollow, so I could install lights inside. However while printing I ran into a lot of malfunctions, so sadly I had to save that idea for a different time. Making them solid helped a whole lot with their stability and once I added lots of support structure they printed just fine!

I will be making the capes and monocle for the bishop ghost, but sadly with other finals and time restraints I haven't been able to get out and get what I need specifically.

Other then a few things I had to cut out on this project, it was very fun and I definitely want to print more things in the future!

Here are my renders:

And the Prints themselves!
