Jardir vs. One-Arm Mini and Maxi
Just a reminder that Thanksgiving is almost upon us, and that means 2 things:
1. Buy pants with an elastic waist (my wife also suggests overalls)
2. The deadline for submitting your Homemade Heroes looms before us
So take a break from midterms/pie baking/leaf raking/hibernating and start sending in those entries!
Dwayne from the UK sent in his (possibly) preliminary submission:
Hi Peat,
This has been a long hard struggle and a far cry from what I set out to do. I had set out to make a complete set of chess pieces for each faction (Alagai, Chin and Sharum). But alas I had not the time nor funds to complete such an ambitious task, with university lectures and essays and my time away to study in Germany. But after blood, sweat, and a hilarious incident with framing wire, I had moderately finished two of them: One-Arm and Jardir. I also managed to squeeze out my centre piece and largest piece: approx. 10″ of One-Arm (complete with wound leaking green ichor). In time I hope to finish the set but alas this is all I have to enter this time.
Jardir, One-Arm Mini and One-Arm Maxi.
Regards,
Dwayne.
A Painted Man Chess Set is an *outstanding* idea. Please, please, please take the time to finish it, even if it doesn’t make it into the contest.
Peat you spelt my name wrong 🙁 I thought we were friends lol.
Whoops! Fixed.
