Digital Media: 3D Chess Set Design


In Digital Media we are working on creating designs for our 3D Printed Chess collaborative set in Tinkercad.  The pieces should be inspired by the traditional chess piece designs but you should add some creative, personal elements to your piece.  Above is an example from Lucas who is working on designing a rook, he began by creating a traditional design with geometric shapes then started adding new elements.  The final design should be both saved as a 2 part images like the example above with the class name and piece your designing along with a .stl file so it can be 3D printed.. Make sure that the elements of the design are all touching and there aren't parts that are too thin because they don't print well.  The final design is due Monday April 11.
