I think some perspective is needed... This looks unfortunately very flat, and unmatching the tree stump's position.

The light source is incorrect. The chess board should be lighter on its bottom left but not on its top left. As for the perspective, I suggest you to make the chess board have a shorter height but keeping the same width.

Remember to have a clear outline, avoiding blurrying tools and having a small color pallet.

Great job though,
Keep it up!

Actually, it's planar. It's surface should be shaded everywhere equally.

Actually, I started with a tileset like that back in 2005. Unfortunately I lost the graphics.

Be careful what you wish for. Checkers has been "solved", which means that it is now possible to create a computer program which never loses.
