Steel VS Bronze

Lacking the final polish but they came out just pretty well. The bronze looks more copper in this picture.

Beautiful. Did you design those pieces? If so, what software did you use?

cheers,

Gosh no, my artistic talents are limited to say the least. No these are a stylized version of a well known set called the Lewis Set. You can find this version on thingiverse, simply search for lewis chess. I actually wish there was a modelling done for the original figures as they are fantastic, but I understand the changes made to ease the printing process.
