3D Printed Chess Set Where Pieces Are Tiny Planters

Unfortunately, playing chess with living people is somewhat frowned upon. But you can live out your sadistic control fantasies with these 3D printed chess pieces. It’s a Bauhaus- inspired set, where individual pieces also double as planters. So seed some of your favorite greens, and fight your enemy. Imagine it’s a saga of Ent civil war that was lost to Silmarillion.

The MicroPlanter chess set was designed by XYZ Workshop, a husband and wife team of Kae Woei Lim and Elena Low. The design won the 2013 My Mini Factory Chess and Pen Design Competition, which is great considering the creative, 3D printed stuff that competed against them!

This 3D Printed Internally Lit Fantasy Armor Is Every Cosplayer’s Dream

Meet Melissa Ng, a New York-based artist, a founder of the Lumecluster wearable art producers, and a person responsible for this amazing 3D-printed, internally lit, medieval-inspired fantasy body armor. Phew, try saying that in one breath…

To make it happen, she spent around 518 hours on designing this fantasy gear on her computer, before 3D printing the durable plastic frame and enhancing it with LED lights.

Melissa has also listened to the feedback that came after her previous armor designs and made this one so it would have the qualities of an actual medieval armor and its beauty wouldn’t rely so much on the feminine figure beneath.

“I made this in honor of the creatives out there who know that, even though it’s empowering to be the ruler of your dreams and creations, you also know how incredibly lonely the journey can often be.”

For the step-by-step process of making this magical armor make sure you visit Melissa’s website .
