I’m actually coming back to this step after making it to Boolean modifiers while attempting a high-poly chess set. I ran into some advanced problems so I wanted to start over and keep things simple.
Rather than stick strictly to the reference image, I’m going to use them as a guideline but ultimately try to work with the low-poly aesthetic.
These are my chosen ratios, I’ll deal with height beyond the king once I actually get to that point
Here is the set of pieces I will be using for reference
