Hey all, just wanted to show you my Marvin Remix.
It is a chess set consisting of Marvin pawns, Marvin with the face of a horse , Marvin Castles , and The King Marvin . It also has a Marvin Queen and Marvin Bishop. I created it in Blender 3D. I hope you enjoy it.
Printing it: I tried to print it, however, Marvin has little feet, and my build plate isn’t very sticky.
The combination of the two created this:
Hmmm…
Anyway, I might try again soon.
Here are the files:
Bishop_Marvin.stl
Castle_Marvin.stl
King_Marvin.stl
Knight_Marvin.stl
Pawn_Marvin.stl
Queen_Marvin.stl
You might want to use some raft. I know from experience.
If you print it, post some pics in the comments.
Thanks,

Yeh I second @gabriela3d ! This is awesome! And you’ve so generously shared the stl’s @Schnixx . What are you going to print it in @? I think you should print it when you’re in NY next week. We have some CF & Stainless Steel that would make a lovely set

Lets print them in the Colorfabb or ProtoPasta metal composites and print a chess plate aswell, I’m pretty sure that would look awesome, although such prints would be very expensive :-/
If I find the time I will at least try to get them in two different colors and I’ll look forward to design a plate on my own, shouldnt be that difficult.
PS (edit): instead of an ordinary chess plate we could print the 3d hubs heart-logo and play on that, we’d just have to find new rules
Cheers,

Thanks Marius. Yeah I think printing them in metal would be awesome, and I love the idea of using the logo as a board!
cheers
PS. Please post some pictures when you print them:)
haha. That horse face though… Maybe Marvin riding a horse would be a bit more elegant
Sweet, will do! I’m thinking special PLA’s (bamboo, wood, copper)
I know… I was going to try that, but I was sure it would come out looking terrible
