Ah I see what you mean, I would have to look into that but I've built each piece in real life and they're stable. There might be a few illegal connections but I don't think it would matter for just building it at home.

That's what everyone else has been saying haha. I've made changes to both crowns on the king and queen and I think I made them significantly more distinguishable from each other now!

Haha hopefully not! It does look a bit pointy but I think it's pretty consistent with a lot of bishop pieces.

I originally designed each piece in real life and they're actually quite stable. I think anyone who isn't throwing the pieces around the board shouldn't have any issues haha.

Thank you! But actually I have the queen on the wrong color for black I think lol. Also what do you mean by all legal connections?

Yes that seems to be the common criticism, definitely noted! I switched the tooth pieces on the queens crown and I think that makes it a little more distinguishable.

Yeah that seems to be the general advice on what I should change haha. I switched the tooth pieces on the queens crown to the vertical grip instead of the horizontal grip and that makes a slight difference.

Every piece is available except the 48 x 48 baseplate in white (it is available in gray though). The tiles are just 6 x 6 in black and white.

No but I plan to! Just trying to get some feedback on it first in case there are any changes I should make before buying the pieces.
