Hi all!
New user here. I made an account in order to post this thread so I hope I'm not stepping over any guidelines or missing out on some thread etiquette. I've known about PSOW for a while now but never graduated past lurker status, until now!
A little intro: I played PSO 1&2 like my life depended on it in high school and ever since I never been able to shake the experience. PSO is so deceptively simple; 3 general classes, 4 stages, kill stuff till it's dead. Basic gameplay loop. But the levels and the characters stick with you for some reason... I guess it's just wonderfully designed, but whatever magic that allows it to have created. Damn. Years later I'm still floored by all the good times and all it takes is the menu music for it to all come rushing back.
Anyway, I've been getting into 3D modeling on the side. For fun. And for whatever reason, it never occurred to me to try anything PSO related. Chess is pretty cool, but it's just a stage on which to display some cool figurines. I hope to make these available with a 3D printer so, who knows, maybe even some larger statues can come out of this.
Here's some of my first progress:

I'm just mimicking the default poses to begin and then I'll rearrange them for the purposes of the chessboard. (King's should probably be somewhat similar even if they're both different PSO classes etc).
Let me know what you all think!
My thoughts for the chess lineup:
King - HUmar
Queen - HUnewearl
Bishop - RAmar/RAmarl
Knight - FOmar/FOmarl
Rook - teleporter
Pawn - red boxes
King - HUcast
Queen - HUcaseal
Bishop - RAcast/RAcaseal
Knight - FOnewm/FOnewearl
Rook - stacked boxes
Pawn - mags
But all in all, great to be here, glad I finally got an account going, and sorry to all you who haven't played ep 1&2 in a while. I'm just as down with PSU and PSO2 but I gotta start with the original G.
