Chess Set - Black Teamby ~nailpipe

Designs & Interfaces / Other

Aaaaaand done. I don't think the king's very balanced though...I get the feeling that he's going to fall over backwards.

Edit: I fixed the king somewhat.

So it is the pharaohs vs. the sorcerers?

~nailpipe May 12, 2008 Student Digital Artist

Sort of. I just wanted them to contrast much. Plus everyone knows that european catholic/mage type people and egyptians have always hated each other.

Maybe... or maybe you're just being racist. Africans vs. Nordics. You should switch the colors, because everyone knows that cloaks are black and Egyptians love ivory.

Noo, you're the bigot!

I thought about it before and came to the conclusion that black knights and cloaks and garbage would be cliche, and as everyone knows, Egyptians are largely not black skinned, so that's a departure with the expected. I've contrasted the sinister sharp angles and mysterious hoodyness of the euro team with White, and at the same time the more feminine curvey animalness of the Egyptian with Black.
