Hey Guys. It too me while to finish the chess scene. It´s because i wanted to do something special and I had to figure out the texturing. Thats I part I really struggle with. The UV-work is super difficult (for me).
But I hope you like the result.
Critics are welcome.
It gets easier with practice! Though it never got to be ‘exciting’ part of modelling for me. You might want to check some of the addons in our community wiki here WIKI - Free Blender-related tools and addons for addons that helps the process a bit…
I don’t think CBC course goes in depth here (someone please correct me if I’m wrong), but environment course does for sure…
I like it very much, especially how you blended in the board with environment!
