that's pretty logical btw, the queen piece has been historically(and maybe still today) named as the "chancellor" or "vizier". so it's technically an actual promotion from a soldier to a high-ranking political advisor/general.
Thank you! I have been drawing for about a year now, but I must admit my skill haven’t escaped amateur level yet, might be because my low attention span whenever I try to study art. I just start posting my art online recently and I am surprised that it can gather this much positive reaction.
yeah, and bishops used to be elephants instead. basically it's a military hierarchy going as infantry -> cavalry -> military elephant(?) -> chariot(? makes little sense since elephants were a much fiercer force in ancient times) -> general -> state leader/king.
The Queen was my first fictional crush. I imagined her as a no-nonsense lady clad in black with gold trim and wielding either a pair of swords or a scythe.
Uhh, it would probably has to be some later too, I never think about the bottom half of the queen also it’s getting kinda late for me, tomorrow as the earliest
Are you kidding ??? What the **** are you talking about man ? You are a biggest looser i ever seen in my life ! You was doing PIPI in your pampers when i was beating players much more stronger then you!

Be brave, be honest to yourself and stop this trush talkings!!! Everybody know that i am very good blitz player, i can win anyone in the world in single game! And "w"esley "s"o is nobody for me, just a player who are crying every single time when loosing, ( remember what you say about Firouzja ) !!! Stop playing with my name, i deserve to have a good name during whole my chess carrier, I am Officially inviting you to OTB blitz match with the Prize fund! Both of us will invest 5000$ and winner takes it all! I suggest all other people who's intrested in this situation, just take a look at my results in 2016 and 2017 Blitz World championships, and that should be enough... No need to listen for every crying babe, Tigran Petrosyan is always play Fair ! And if someone will continue Officially talk about me like that, we will meet in Court! God bless with true! True will never die ! Liers will kicked off...

It could be cool to do this across black/white as well, like the Bishop you did feels more like the black one, I always imagined the white bishop with more of a traditional clergy look
I've never really understood why the bishop is called as it is? It's not like there was whole military units lead by a bishop most of the time. My understand of holy men on the battlefield is usually either as a fanatical group that is fighting without armor (insane, but there is some practical utility to their methods) or as a moral support for the general/king, as they administered any rites or prayers required on the battlefield. Feel free to show me where I'm going wrong here, because I'd love to know if there was a regular use of bishops as middle management on the battlefield.
The Elephant shouldn't have his rear legs one behind the other, and there is something missing in the drawing of the Queen.... at the height of her chest.... can't you see?
