QUESTS CHESS! Made by BioJ, one of my readers/personal heroes.

All painstakingly rendered in Fimo clay. Speaking as someone who wasted their childhood both playing adventure games and making tiny things out of clay, I totally wish I’d thought of this. Instead I just put my talent to use making dioramas.

Segue!

I did these a couple years ago for a science fair held in a local bar. Like how grade 5 should have been.

The first diorama I did was about the dangers of “global cooling.” Think murderous penguins.

I made the hill out of a Tim Horton’s cup.

Oh ho…so politically incorrect.

In case you can’t tell that’s a hapless victim sprawled on some “ice.”

I ended up winning almost $100 in gift certificates, certainly not because I sold the penguins for audience votes. Nope.

This was the one I made the next year. I apologize for the webcam-quality photos. It’s a diorama…of a science fair!

Last but not least, here are the original Nanobots that led to the game idea. They were a birthday gift for my friend Kevbot, just like the game was supposed to be his Christmas present last year. Heh…oops.

Notice the quarter.
