LEGO Viking chess board

We’ve seen a ton of brick-built board games over the years, including an earlier LEGO Hnefatafl board, but we are nowhere near getting tired of these LEGO-fied games. At first glance, Simon Pickard‘s version of Viking chess doesn’t even look like it is made out of LEGO. The pieces are stylish and practical-looking and the board itself is quite ingenious, using both studs-on-top and studs-not-on-top (aka SNOT) techniques to create a smooth, gridded playing surface. I imagine many board game connoisseurs would be proud to have this creation sitting on their gaming table.
