I like it!

 

Looks like a miniature set I once had the opportunity (and money--at the time) to buy. It was a 2.5"x2.5" board and beautifully made little chess pieces to match! I held off buying it and when I returned to the game shop it was already sold. Never saw one like it since.

 

Nice work!

Very very nice model pixelplucker. And thanks for sharing!

I hope you don't mind but I just had to do a AO render of it :)

The dof is not done in A:M though. I rendered out a depth map and used DOF PRO

Beautiful chess set! - beautiful render!

 

Stian - could you share the details/technique of your lighting, texture setup on the chess set - when you say depth map - do you mean using fog to generate a depth map?

 

Stunning!

 

EDIT: - I found this topic discussing creating a depth map in A:M - quite good

As Nancy mentioned, the depth-map is created by removing all textures, materials and lights in the scene, and then render with fog. The depth map is attached. The white reflection is created by a luminaire. The luminaire is simply just a plain with light aimed at it to make it pure and bright white. The rest is regular AO.

I think it took eight hours (overnight) to render, with occlusion sampling set to 100%
