A fine start! congratulations.

 

It's tough lighting dark object like that bishop (?). Since it's a chess piece and probably made out some shiny material, how about turning on the "specularity" on its material, then the glints off it's edges would help show off the shape more.

Chess

 

Sorry if it's bad. First time at making an image.

 

 

It's not bad. The distortion can be fixed by not closing your lathe object until you have lathed it already. I always leave a tiny little hole on the tips of lathed objects so as not to have "4-pointed-3-point-like patches" (my term, ya like? haha.) When all the vertices intersect in the same spot, they make crease-ridden 3-pointers.

 

Good deal, looks bvery chess-piece-y. =P

The first point you set, before you lathed the spline was a tiny bit over the axis.

If you move the point a bit, you wont get that problem anymore. (You have to create a little whole at the head of the chess-figure in fact...)
