The Bishop The bishop's height will be 70 mm, with base to height ratio = 48%. All the pieces (except the king) will have 32 mm bases. That's just the way I roll.

The Rook







The rook will be the same height as the knight, 64 mm. I've never liked diminutive rooks. Why should the second most powerful piece be hardly larger than a pawn? All the pieces (except the king) will have 32 mm bases -- again, because I like them robust.







Queen Is Done

The queen is simplicity itself.  On to the bishop and rook.
