      lighting looks like it could be much improved πŸ˜• Lighting is very very important to get high quality fast renderings especially with metals, reflections, and product shots like this.

      You can download a .skp format studio stage lighting or 2 here You will need to replace the pointlights with Twilight Pointlights and you will be good to go. Read the entire thread there, there's lots of good info.

      we are aboutto post a SketchUp format Twilight Lighting Studio that would be good to try... or you can use a studio HDR in the spherical sky slot (from here or here.)

        Thanks for the feedback. I will check those sources. Actually it was done with Preset 9 I still need to figure out how the lights work.

                There's been so much going on with Shiny Stuff and chess, so I decided to play too a little bit more. Quickie design and application of the metal template in TW. Haven't done a Knight yet. They're really hard. πŸ’š

                        More shiny chess. Thanks to BooFredLay for the Knight Model. He even got the scale correct by sight! i didn't have to scale it at all. Amazing.

                        Anyway. .. just shiny metals in the sun, but It's just a doodle. Thanks BOO.

                            Nice looking render mate, one observation however the knight and the bishop look like a before and after viagra advert.

                              Well .. you know I worried about that. Especially after my first attempts at the Knight. BooFredLay actually modeled the K for me. IT still a bit nasty . .. 😳

                                    Here's another one using some TW interior presets. I wish now I had put the little gnome in there. . .

                                        I redid this adding the gnome. He just seemed to belong. Plus I threw in some other mislaid game pieces. (mr. Green is floating in the air. .. . 😳 )
