My accomplished design for Bulldog pieces in 3D models

Sort:
BattleChessGN18

(Image may take a moment to load, and after loading, it may lag for the first revolution of frames. Afterwards, it should run smoothly.)

Please have a gander.

Anyone want to guess what these pieces are?

Answer key will be posted February 15th eventually.

 

 

Added - I will give a word of relief. "g" does not look too closely like the piece it's suppose to represent. (I realized it too late, after all the hours and effort I put into designing the components of its piece, most notably its windows.)

Extra points if you guess it right. grin.png

k = Dwarf

BattleChessGN18

Item k is not the Dwarf, nope. 

But, the Dwarf is one of these.

I don't really see good hints in the pieces to know what's what.

c is angel. The wispy wings look like this:

 

d is dwarf. Looks like one of the toughest pieces (and Duke taught me in an actual game how strong the dwarf is).


h is time thief. The clock obviously represents time. (unless that's not a clock).

(sorry - I don't have the icon readily available)frustrated.png

 

I wanna say f might be a guard (it has allusions to the spikes). But why is it translucent? So if not a guard, then the angel?

vickalan

i is the bulldog. Pretty much looks like a dog, although going from 2D to 3D changed it from cute to menacing!😅

BattleChessGN18

@Vickalan definitely guessed his Bulldog piece correctly; and also guessed the Time Thief and Angel correctly. 

Item f is not the Guard. The Guard and Witch are in all my proctored games' diagram, and neither figures are included here.

Item d is not the Dwarf.

I believe some time ago, you had some other 3d pieces, and this was the guard (I liked it so much I saved a copy)!

But this was the guard from a different game (different powers). Nevertheless, I really like the image, and that looks like it could be a guard!

Btw, nice work on the 3D models. I think they look cool whether they are animated or not.happy.png

It was absolutely a failed attempt at creating a Dog. I decided to  save it by calling it a headless mannequin, or perhaps a museum sculpture. Haha

Well, thank you. happy.png

So, this 3d figurine is very old and goes back to a time when I haven't learned how to create my own 3D meshes. It was bought online and modified with basic alteration methods.

(However, figure d I did create on my own from scratch, now that I do have some upgraded knowledge on how to do so.)

Just so that I don't take all the credit when undeserved.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

One of the difficult things in the community of chess variance is that, inventors who don't know about each other May unintentionally create a piece that uses the same name. Indeed, the guard with you referenced in the above image is from Waterloo chess, created by IvanKosintsev.

vickalan

I'm glad I got three correct (bulldog, time thief, angel). The guard and witch aren't here?

Many of the other pieces are more obscure (not played often) so I'm going to say guessing the right answer is going to be more difficult from here.meh.png

BattleChessGN18

The Witch and the Guard (of Evert's Bulldog Chess, not IK's Waterloo) are the lone hand and the spike tower figurines. happy.png

(One of the WinterDog #2  matches)

As far as the other pieces being more difficult to guess, I'll let other members try guessing for a little longer. Sometime either this month or the beginning of next month, I'll post the answer key. Haha

Hi

very nice designs.

 

j= Jester or Joker

h= time thief

i= bulldog

BattleChessGN18

@MuskateerChess2017 Thank you, Zied. grin.png

Yes, item i is the bulldog, yes, item j is the Joker, and yes, item h is the Time Thief.

Sadly, @Vickalan already guessed the bulldog and Time Thief correctly.

But, you are so far the first to find the Joker.

a is tree?

comradM

AFAIK pieces i=bulldog, j=joker, h=time thief, c=angel are already correctly guessed. Can only add my impressions d = werewolf, n = tower.

BattleChessGN18

Yes, McCHESS (@1e4c6_O-1). Item 'a' is the Tree. 

Yes, @ComradM, item 'd' is the Werewolf. (Body of a muscular male, head of a jackal. In another context, add a Sceptem Scepter, and it's Anubis! grin.png)

Item 'n' is not the Seige Tower.

is L the hunter? looks kind of like a scythe to me
