Chessboard of the Golden Witch

Description

This is a little tribute to the awesome visual novel created by 7th expansion, Umineko no naku koro ni (When the seagulls cry).

I guess a lot of people who read it might have a similar idea to this, since the novel keeps comparing itself to a chess game and the characters to chess pieces, but i wanted to give my own view of it =)
Still, the arrangements of the pieces might be innacurate (I seriously doubt Bernkastel and Lamdadelta can be considered pieces!) but meh, it's not of a big deal.

Here's the pieces arrangement:


[] WHITE SIDE
King - Ushiromiya Battler
Queen - Bernkastel
Bishops - Ushiromiya George and Ushiromiya Jessica
Knights - Kanon and Shanon
Rooks - Ushiromiya Maria and Kumasawa
Pawns - Genji and Ushiromiya Natsuhi, Kyrie, Hideyoshi, Rosa, Krauss, Rudolf and Eva

[] BLACK SIDE
King - Beatrice
Queen - Lamdadelta
Bishops - Ronove and Gaap
Knights - Siesta 45 and Siesta 410
Rooks - Eva-Beatrice and Virgilia
Pawns - Goat, Lucifer, Mammon, Satan, Asmodeus, Belphegor, Beelzebub and Leviathan

And here is every piece separately if you're interested:

I was aiming for making it a full pixel piece but it didn't have much sense to redo the whole board just for that, so i'm leaving it this way.

nice piece of art BUT the position of the board is wrong! (when you play, you have a white square on your right not on your left like in your drawing!)
