      I do play chess but on a recreational level. My nephew on the other hand just won his first open tournament this past weekend and got $175. He is 11.

      I have a number of sets, one of which is quite nice.

      I also made a couple chess sets for FF a while back. I may have a go at rendering them as well.

          Cool. Did you model the set? Can I see the wires of the Knight?

            Very nice boofredlay.

            Clean and innovative.

            Although after a few glasses of scotch, the difference in the pieces could get 'subjective' after a mate to say the least. πŸ˜‰

              Yeah. Quite while ago in my SU 3 days . . .

                The mesh, the wire frame. Turn on hidden edges as I want to see how you created the knight.

                  I think he means the wireframe. View/Facestyle/Wireframe

                    The "K-nig-it" (sorry . . little monty python gag there 🀣 ) is just an extruded profile. I am really not that clever. I might have even scammed this from someone else. I don't remember.

                    EDIT::: oops. My bad.

                      Well David as much as you play down how you did it, it is still a nice chess piece, cheers.

                          Nice model (would be interesting in which way it would change your play), great render. Twilight amazes me with every new picture I see.

                            I did this Wobble Chess set a while back. I think it likes Twilight πŸ˜‰

                              Very cool, Eric. Great job both modelling and rendering! πŸ‘

                              I can imagine it's a good set for shiops and aeroplanes as the figures can fall off harder.

                                Thats an excellent render πŸ‘
                                There's one mistake in this model though, you know what it is? πŸ˜„

                                  The board is inverted. H1 square has to be white. πŸ˜‰

                                          OK this thread is not about chess, maybe a Ruy Lopez was coming (I play this better as black). πŸ˜„ KT f3
                                          Boofredlay you should render these positions. Is twilight fast enough? πŸ˜†
