Through my schooling at University of Wisconsin - Stout, many of my classes touched on 3D modeling, though one class in particular emphasized it. You can see the results of my classwork from that course in this gallery.

Chesstories

This series of images grew from an idea to express idoms, meaphors and stories with a single 3D scene, using chess pieces as the main characters, props and set pieces.

Below you will find the entire series, in roughly chronological order of creation, starting in 1996 (You may note that my abilities grew over time, and hence the scenes became more complex). Each piece has a title, giving the name of what I am attempting to represent in this piece.

A Failure to Communicate	An Excercise in Futility	United We Stand
The Final Nail in the Coffin	One Night Stand	God Save the Queen
The Traitor	Forty Pieces of Silver	What's in a Pawn?
David and Goliath	A Midsummer Night's Dream	Rapunzel
Sleeping Beauty	Noah's Ark	Tilting at Windmills/td>
Daniel in the Lion's Den
