    ^Thanks outrider42 :)

    yeah - I think Daz need to market to the chess-clubs too now ;)

    This is legit. One of the things about 3D stuff is that a lot of people outside just do not see a real world use for it...its all virtual inside a computer. Something like this shows there can be a "real world" use for such 3D apps like this that go beyond just making pretty pictures.

    With some skill people could recreate their family and friends as chess pieces, which could be both entertaining or terrifying, LOL. With so many celebrity look a like models they could have a set based on favorite celebs or characters. Or catgirls. Catgirls vs Wolfgirls. OMG.

    People who like both chess and scantily clad Victoria with a sword can now print her has an entire army of chess(t) pieces with the irony that the base covers her up more than most skimpy outfits.

    I like your thinking!

    I'm thinking, not only printing. I've been thinking about carving myself a set of chess pieces for a while, and this product could be fairly useful for rendering the blueprints for that. (making a blueprint is VERY helpful for woodcarving, and since I really can't express in drawing a concept I have in living colour in my mind, Daz is a key product in my favourite hobby)
    Though I might look for a slightly narrower base for the pieces (is it possible to morph geografts?), this set will still help a lot with visualization of the concept.

    Buying Garden statues is a big business. If there was a business that let a user make a garden statue and print it in appropriate materials (it's some sort of very tough plastic) it'd probably do quite well with advertising in the right home & garden magazines.

    Perfect for Through the Looking Glass and What Alice Found There-inspired renders.  Now I just need a way to do card-people for Alice's Adventures in Wonderland stuff.

    i found this: https://www.renderosity.com/mod/bcs/card-soldiers/129753

    because i could have sworn that i also had seen card people somewhere before.

    but i could also swear this is not the product or freebie i had seen back then, lol...

    Loving the renders Artini yessmiley

     (is it possible to morph geografts?),

    It is if you create a morph for that graft - I don't think simple scaling would work here as it'd affect the join so you'd need to take it into a modeller and scale it in there, leaving the join alone. Then it's adding it as a morph in DS with Morph Loader, same as any other.

    It' s a good product and deserves every publicity it gets (extra or otherwise)

    Now where's my 3d Printing resin ?

    Well, another thing this product could be used for is on novel covers, where someone wanted a unifying theme for a series, and where each of the characters is metaphorically a chesspiece in some vast, long-game sort of cold-war battle between the factions.  Show the main-focus character of that particular novel as a chesspiece. Do the same with the rest of the novels.

    Great idea - I'm loving all the inspiration that people are coming up with for this set :)

    this set is certainly very inspiring, that's true! ^^

    i always wanted to make this story where a collector wanders thru worlds/dimensions/times, whatever, and picks different creatures to transform them into pets or objects... well, on top of displaying them in a case, an aquarium or sth... creating himself a unique chess set with them would be an excellent scenario!
    the only thing between the idea and the realization of this idea is my awful, pathological procrastination (which stops me from doing sooo many things while my creative vein fills my head with "plot" bunnies...) - otherwise you delivered a perfect tool for this ^^
