Wolf Knight's Playmobil Chess

[Wolf Knight]

Hello boys and girls 

Perhaps some of you have already seen some of the chess pieces I put together in my Random Customs thread.
Well, today I am proud to present to you the complete project! First, a few overall pics:















Some of the pieces you've already seen:

Kings and Queens


Bishops (we call them officers in the greek chess for some reason)


Knights

I thought at first to somehow customise a horse, cut and glue maybe, but after some consideration I preferred to give the knights the black and white crests of the unicorns for distinction and the jousting spear.

Towers

Not so easy to create a chess tower with playmobil... I've thought it many times and came up with various ideas, like making a small base and set a heavy armed klicky on top... but after all the deliberation, the idea of a heavily fortified knight in armor with a broad tower shield and a longsword seemed more appealing

Pawns:

Just your average footman...

And a few on-game moves...













Hope you enjoy the pics, as much I enjoyed making the pieces

Nice set, Wolf Knight!

That's amazing Wolf Knight!  Even I feel like playing! (what a disgrace that'd be - the klickys would flee from my (lack of) skill!)

I like your ideas for both the horses and towers. 

(did you paint the hem of the white bishops skirts?)

Fantastic, Panos! I really love how you used the unicorn crests for the knights -- brilliant! Really great work.

Beautiful Panos! Great solution for the knights! I start with e2-e4

[Birdie]

Excellent!!! I really like your choices for the figures. It's all in the details, but it's very fitting.
And I would absolutely love to play chess with that set

Excellent work Panos, congrats. I love it.
You can bring this, here to my cafeteria and play together, drinking a very nice cup of coffee.

Friendly George.

Looks great. The pieces are very easy recognisable. You reallycould play chess with thinking what piece was that again there.

Very nice work there looks like your choices have worked well, like the contrast between the 2 sides the white ones seem much purer whereas the black ones suggest at something a little more sinister

That's a nice chess set, Panos. My favourite parts are the Towers, and…the white king! I loooove how this white crown looks! The white round shields are good too, and maybe I will use some for my Saracens, with your permission, of course!
Best
