Chess Knight

Description:

A nice knight chess piece. The most difficult of the chess pieces, the knight lacks a strong geometric parallel. I created this piece by spinning the base, then adding and smooth-subdividing a cube and extruding it for the head. For the neck, I gradually activated the To Sphere command as I extruded an increasingly circular edge loop downwards, culminating by Bridging Two Edge Loops at the bottom. The details were made in sculpt mode with a pressure-sensitive tablet. A mane is included for an added touch, but you can remove it if you want. This model has 65664 faces.
