This is a WIP of a chessboard I’m making.
If you have comments or suggestions, don’t hesitate to write them down.

PS : The tower mesh is a little screwed, so don’t pay attention to it.
wow, that looks really nice !!
but maybe it would be more light in the scene…but it looks really great !!

I think the light levels are perfect - they impart quite a mood for the overall picture. Perhaps you culd turn the “filter” up on the envmap for the chessboard tho… the reflections seem a little too clear and crisp…
Overall tho, quite an accomplishment. I think you’re coming along great!

Very cool, I agree with the other two that it could use more light on the black peices so you can see more details and the reflections are a bit too detailed.
yup yup yup reflections are too high, lowering a little that Col slider will help. I love the image, pieces look great. Mmmm radiosity ? looks really good.
Keep it up.
malefico.
LOVE IT!
I liek the lighting and textures a bunch, modelling aint htat bad too. ^_’
I agree with the others…nice image, good lighting, BUT…it really seems like that glass is on the wrong side of the board - because of its placement, I’m not sure if if it’s the glass or the board that I should be focused on.
nice modelling!
What version of the lightflow export did you use?
Martin
it look fabulous, but there are a few chess things you need to fix.
The King and Queens are on the wrong spot. It is Queen to color (white queen, white square, black queen black square)
And i think the board is sideways (the white square should always be on whites left side).
But other than that, it looks great!
nice
I especially like the glass. Well done, I can’t tell that its CG, though i know it is
Really nice, a bit dark, overall, but maybe that’s my monitor… I cannot get any detail at all on the black pieces, maybe a little ligh highlights… more spec… don’t know
Stefano
thanks for the tips everyone.
Happy Dud : thanks for pointing that : I didn’t know that.
Theeth : I don’t really know what version it is, probably the latest.
overextruded : The problem is that if I place the glass on the other side of the board, it’s totally out of sight.
The glass looks real exept for the dark spot underneath the glass. Unless it is sitting on top of something.
No, the black spot is a bug i still want to fix. I think it’s a reflection of the wine, but I’m not sure.
