Piececlopeida: Advancer. Moves like a Queen, but captures by approach.[All Comments] [Add Comment or Rating]

Chess pieces are generally not art items, but rather products of industrial design that can be mass-produced, so a different approach is required.

They are both, and there are plenty of examples of the former.

They should be simple to be made by a hobbyist, using a lathe or 3D printer, ergonomic, and distinctive. Why not include such files (which will be eventually made by someone) in every Piececlopedia article?

We can do that if someone supplies them, but it's not an either/or matter of doing only one or the other. The AI art is for stimulating the imagination, not for constructing physical pieces.
