SciFi and Fantasy Art Charge on the chessboard by Henning Janssen


	The horse certainly is one of the most interesting chess pieces, often seen with a rider. These horse and rider have somehow become alive doing some magic live-chess.

26 Jul 2005	Loyanna	Loading... ooo, i love it! Hehehe, the horse is so fun looking, i want a little pet knight piece! What did you use for it, color pencil? keep up the great work! Henning Janssen replies: "Markers & coloured pencils this is, indeed!"
27 Jul 2005	C. A. Drotar	Loading... Bwahaha ... That's amusing. The coloring is awesome, too. I am just wondering how much trouble the horse will have actually "charging" with, you know, a round base and no legs. O.o Henning Janssen replies: "I think the round base comes in quite handy when it comes to squashing down the other pieces."
28 Jul 2005	G. H. 'Trace' Webster III	Loading... The name of that chess peice is the Knight, not the "horse". Just like the proper name for the "castle" is the Rook. Really cool picture, I love the detail in the fur and the expresssion on his face. Henning Janssen replies: "I used to know that ... about the knight ... after that movie "Knight Moves" with Christopher Lambert. I hope you will forgive me for not being a native speaker. Errors like these do occur.I guess the Rock would have been referred to as Tower, here. Another error! Lucky me didn´t place that one on elfwood, though. If you are interested - have a look at my website on the "various" page."
26 Jul 2006	Susana Molina	Loading... whoa, haahahaa, how original, I like it, I like it!! the expression of the horse is of total insanity!!
