Description
Decided to model the rook as what i thought would be it's equivalent form as a machine. It's a mobile railgun that shoots compressed air, which is heated till it's in a plasma state.Here is the final image.
Black version here [link]
Modeled with Blender rendered using cycles.

Now that is what a rook should be! all it needs is legs... that can only move in horizontal or vertical squares... lol Very nice job.

Thank you.
There are boosters on the base that allow it to hover and just above the base where the blue band is, that section has boosters attached to it but you can't see it from here. That section can swivel 360 independent of the rest of the body. You can see the back of the rook here [link]

The only other piece I have at the moment is the pawn, but that was a hard surface modelling exercise, so it has no materials. I'm also not happy about the design so I'll probably re-do it. I do have ideas for the other pieces but I need to get some concept sketches down and proceed from there.
