Description
Xenodream, no pp, PS6 for frame.
This one's for you Rik, I guess you will recognize this instantly. For those who are wondering, it is the opening set for "Through the Looking Glass (and what Alice found there)" by Lewis Carroll. I had to make some choices concerning the chess pieces. I could have constructed them in a more classical way, but I chose to make my own interpretations. Think the Rook and Pawn (Alice) are self explaining, as might be the two Queens at the bottom. The two pieces on the left at the tophalf are my Kings, the two pieces on the right my Knights.
Also gave some reflection in the back to mimic the title of the book, and let the chessboard float very gently above the surface, to show that the adventure has begun.
Also, I could have rendered this even longer until I got very smooth surfaces and pieces, but since this particular game is being played all over again since 1896, I thought a little wear an tear would be appropriate.
Pfffw, that must be my longest explanation of a work ever... LOL
Thank you so much for viewing and all of your comments.

WOW tripled, Dirk (she exclaims while tipping her hat). What an extraordinary piece of work! I'm "gobsmacked" and am having a difficult time typing..since my jaw is still so close to the keyboard.
What an awesome tribute. Your lighting techniques produce such realistic results.
This is too cool Dirk!! An excellent chessboard and I like the texture rather than smooth surfaces. Very cool indeed...;o)

Wow Dirk, this is fantastic! You are such a creative designer! This is a fantastic rendition of the chessboard in Alice In Wonderland! If I could vote more than once, you can believe I would!
Dirk, I'm so honored and flattered, I'm almost speechless!! I deeply appreciate your dedication of this stunningly beautiful and creative image to me, whom you know loves LC and AIW particularly. While - from the list above - I appear to be late to this teaparty, I have to add my two-pence worth. You are right, recognition was instantaneous and I would have known who the artist was even without you being named. Wonderfully evocative piece. While it is the opening set in the work, you can see the game is already afoot: the rabbit and time are running, Alice is stumbling her way throught the maze. Thank you for taking us once more through the looking glass. P.S. those pieces would be wonderful patterns for a real chess set!! VOTE and LOL Rik
