Here is my final chess scene:

I am sure that most of you have recognized immediately that this scene is the 6th match between Karjakin vs. Carlsen at the world championchip in 2016 which ended with a remis :wink:

I’ve never played chess before but I enjoyed making the chess set!

Finally done, at least for now. Got tired of messing with the lighting and material on a laptop that sounds like its grinding sand every time it needs to do a render. I’ll get back to it and get more creative, one day.

Same as above. Using a Laptop is great for portability, but rendering seems to push the limits of mine.

Below is my scene for now.

Finished my chess set! I think the dramatic lighting might be a bit much, but it was fun to set up

I also cheated a bit with the “quads only” knight… I made it using quads, yet I wasn’t quite pleased with the result. So I decimated it, made a few adjustments to the decimated model and kept it like that.

How 'bout a nice game of chess:

Quick question: is it required that you UV unwrap in order to get images as texture into cycles render? After some fiddling I’m kind of figuring ‘yes’, but would like to be sure.
