I’ve fancy making chess pieces with each piece representing a member of the family. As I’m not a good digital sculpter I will need a 3d scanner, Christmas present?
I also have a fancy to model and make boxes that look like various well known chocolate bars. But I need to improve my digital sculpting or my viscous fluid simulations or hope for AI to give me a lift.

Very cool from a mechanical aspect but silly for chess. A queen or knight option is all that’s needed. The queen can do everything a bishop or rook can do, in fact that’s how its mobility is defined.
