Description This one took some time to make, but I enjoyed it nonetheless. I think that I will take the next few days off from making stuff too recollect my mind and rest up.

Anyway, I got this idea after a small conversation with a friend about statues. We were talking about statues, and for some reason, my friend said that statues (if they are on a piller) remind him of chess pieces. I am not sure why, but that sparked my interest into attepting this piece. Of course, I had no idea it would take this long either. It is not animated, but if I want too, I can animate it for I fixed it so that I could, at some other point in time; maybe.

Hahaha, that is soo cute
I think it would be an amazing idea to animate it, if you havent allready... It may take a while, but with the amount of fav.s and views this got, it would be well worth the wait!
sorry if i am repeating what others have said, but what did you use image-ready for, that you could not do in photoshop ?
Thanks

It would seem that at this time, I probably will not be animating this any time soon; even though I have it on my eventually to do list. Sorry, but I do appreciate your interest for it. Thanks.

Thanks. I've looked into animating it before, but it's still eluding me as to how I want it too look when animated. I'm still working on it though.

Thanks. It was great fun working on this. It's too bad I never got around to making it animated though. My original idea for an animation would've taken me forever to pull off with, so I came up with another, easier to handle one. But things came up and I never got around to doing it. It's still on my list of things to eventually do though.

Hahaha! I love it! Of all the emoticons, this one made me smile the most. I can't wait until the animated version comes out.

* All the chess pieces get frowny faced and aggressive *
* Big fight cloud ensues *
* All are dead except one of the kings who steals the other king's crown *

GibbyGibson In reply to FlyingFelix [2005-11-29 16:34:56 +0000 UTC]

I like the addition of the scene you added. Great mental picture there.

However, I was not going to be doing something like that. It was just going to be something simple; peaces move on the board, then when one takes the other the one taken just moves off the board. The loosing king then falls over or something like that, then all the pieces fly back to their spot to start all over again.

That was my idea, but I am not sure if I will take that route. I will see.

they were the first pieces that I started on. I then worked my way along the back, starting with the King and Queen. It was fun trying ti figure out how to make each piece look different, yet still seem like they fit where they were.

Cassandra28 In reply to GibbyGibson [2005-11-29 22:05:37 +0000 UTC]

The only one I had to peer at was the rook - tried to figure out what he had going on. Is it a tiny shield?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

GibbyGibson In reply to Cassandra28 [2005-11-30 04:39:59 +0000 UTC]

Yep, that is suppose to be a tiny shild. I had a trough time figuring out how to portray him, so I figured, "Castle ... stands strang ... good defence ... shild."

I would love to make it animated as well, but I cannot do that at this time. I have too much on my plate as it is. But I do plan to get to it (hopefully) one of these days.
