Hey peeps! It has been a while. But now I am in a new apartment, with a new job and with a home work setup. For a while I have been wanting to design my own chess piece characters. So here is, what will hopefully be the first, the Queen. Furious!

More chess pieces! This time it is the berserker pawn. I really like making these, I have already done the initial sketches for next couple of pieces. I look forward to showing you people more!

The chess pieces continue! Here we have the King. I wanted him to feel majestic, but also vulnerable. He is the key piece and if he gets taken, the jig is up. He is also not know for his mobility or combat skills, which I wanted this design to reflect. I am on a roll. More of these to come.

Here we go! The Knight (or as we call it in Denmark, The Horse). Only two chess pieces left now.  It is actually quite fun doing a series like this. I have not tried that before.

Hello wonderful people! During the last month I have been preoccupied with a freelance contract for a pretty cool project. I can hopefully show you guys some of that in the beginning of September. Because I REALLY want to. In the meantime, here is the next chess peice. The Bishop! I have a weakness for characters who represent religion wearing armor. There is just a great amout of silly, religious hats that goes so well with it. Now there is only the Tower left. Uuuh.
