I have pieces from an old chess game that I played a lot during my adolescence and so I have a special affection for it.

This game is missing some pieces that unfortunately have been lost over the years. I don’t have 3D modeling skills and I would like to know if there is any way or service for me to recreate these lost parts to be printed on a 3D printer.

All help is welcome and thank you all!

    Look into photogrammetry. You basically take pictures of the object from different angles and use software to spit out a 3D model. It works best if you have the camera at a fixed length from the object, and just rotate the object in place. There are a few apps out there that will do it
