Description
I had the concept for this one jotted down on a piece of paper in my sketchbook, finally decided to go for it. All the chess pieces and board were created in the freeware open-source modeling program "Wings3D". I rendered in Bryce, (11 hour render!) and postworked in PSP7.

Interesting board, i like the reflections and the chess pieces, well done.
Very good lighting, the pieces are really classy.
cool pic
Yes, very good lighting only the contrast between 'black' & 'white' could be a bit stronger in my opinion. Never the less great render !
Nice image.
the glowing around the pawns and the lights are beauuuuuuuuutiful. you completely got rid of bryce's standard-3Dish feel. it kind of reminds me of a game called BattleChess for the Mac where the pawns actually fight each other before killing each other. excellent piece of work, i really like it :)
Awesome image.. great work with this.. and excellent lighting =)
Some cool works here.
Awesome job. Yes, the lighting is excellent.
Youve got some really interesting art in here... it was hard to pick one to comment on coz theyre all awesome... even the 2d. Youre quite an artist. I really like this one tho... simple yet profound... the atmosphere is perfect and its so real, but almost enchanted... like its a chess set of the gods.
