Finally, whole set rendered, took 10 hours and 10 mins of my life  :o

xD

I can say that the problem is that every piece is subdivided xD


Lighting 1 and 2
AA enabled 64
800x600
18 objects (8 pawns, 2 rooks, 2 horses, 2 bishops, 1 queen and 1 king)
A lot of faces

Nice model but there a few things in the geometry that could use some work.
Well, first of all: why did you used so much tri's? You could merge alot of them together and make quads. Especially the middel part. Take a look at the image I attached. The tri's you used for the head are good, but the ones in the middle are sloppy.

I shouldn't use an texture, maybe a bumpmap/specmap but no texture. I like the material you have now, it's clean. A texture might ruin it. It could use a slight glossy attribute, to make it more 'shinny'.

Good work. It must have taken you a while to model. Have you thought about joining the Anim8or Movie project as they are looking for anim8or with your ability. I am part of the project, I am the leader of the partner, Goldline Pictures.

We intend to help render, promote, advertise the project as well as anything else they throw at us.

But I really like the chess set, it does look like a real life set, that you have taken a photo of, did you use a set to help you model?

I did the last piece today, the horse, it's horrible xD
i'm sorry to say, i have to agree.  i can't help thinking it looks more like a drunken llama than a horse :P

well, the neck bit isn't too bad, but the muzzle and ears just don't look right at all.  it sort of looks like you've got multiple polys intersecting each other in some places.  maybe use a reference image or two?
