Recreating chess book covers

Post by Geoff Chandler » Sat Jul 11, 2020 11:13 am

I knew I'd find a use for that multi-coloured chess set I have.

Hah! Nice one.

'Chess For Tigers' is maybe the one cover replication that shouldn't be attempted.

I've always liked that red and white set - my grandparents had one (even though they didn't play themselves) when I was young.

Hi Colin and Matt,

it was just something to do whilst bored. I used to do moving gif covers.

I'm thinking if I have read the book instead of admiring the cover I might have become a good player.
