the iso chess collaboration

I wanted to do an EGA palette challenge, but the #pixel-artists group beat me to it. So this month's collab will be all about isometric sprites.

The goal will be to create a fantasy styled chessboard together. You can either choose to create a "black" or a "white" chesspiece.

The "black" pieces should be depicted as dark themed sprites and the "white" pieces as light themed sprites. For example you can create a goblin to be used as a pawn or a dragon to be used as a knight/horse for the darkside, or a noble farmer to be used as a pawn and a pegasus as a knight/horse for the lightside.

Just tell me in a comment which spot you would like to do so I can add you to the list.

the restricions

palettes

- custom palettes are allowed
- "black side" uses dark colors
- "white side" uses light colors
- all the sprites must have a black outline

canvas size

- keep inside this template
- your sprite must fit on one tile

additional

- the sprites must be isometric
- The "black" pieces need to be displayed with the back towards us
- the "white" pieces with their fronts towards us

I think this will be a challenge for most of you guys, but then again you have a month to finish so I hope you will join me once again.

I'm a bit confused
Can it go above the tile if it fits in your temples size?
And dose the sprite half to be totally done isometrically?

I might be interested in a spot.
Cool idea for a project I look forward to your answers
Thanks

1. yes isometric sprites only. you can turn the head or whatever you have in mind.
2. yes your character can be bigger. (only in height not in widht)

Anyways, this collab. failed a bit because of my absence. I will reintroduce it in a while, but for now I will start a new challenge.

I know I'm awfully close to the end of the collab, but could I perhaps take a white rook?
