More Chess fanart that no one asked for

Also I realized after I drew it, but the scene from Endgame is actually between Sergievsky and his wife, not Florence. But oh well.

These are my character designs and are based solely on the music and a few glances at the set and costumes.

Check out my Sergievsky x Trumper fic on ao3

Well, at least she's a good-looking spy.

1962 Cuban Missile Crisis/Spy Movie Chess au for @because-i-love-chess for the Chess Cherver's Secret Santa exchange! Creative decisions/thoughts about the au below the cut!

Anatoly's outfit takes major inspo from the youth counterculture movement in Russia at the time! The Stilyagi! I thought this would be a good way to show how he's not a "proper," Russian, but in a way that still read early 60s as opposed to the more famous counterculture movements of the late 60s/70s. Stilyagi dressed very Western, with zoot suits, plaid, bright colors -- unfortunately there's not a lot of color photos of them that I found online, so I took some creative decisions, and looked at the 2008 movie musical about them! Funnily enough, this idea all started with Anatoly quoting a Cole Porter term in canon! Now, would Anatoly be able to get away with wearing Stilyagi fashion as such a public figure? Probably not, but I thought it was an interesting enough choice that I could handwave it. At this point, Russia had started becoming a bit more Westernized, and so the stilyagi are starting to fall out of fashion. However, Anatoly is still kinda clinging to his youth in a way, and to his idea of what America could be.

In contrast, Florence is very modern American. The hair, the silhouette -- it's not quite what the idea of the 60s we have in our heads yet, but it's tending towards that! I wanted her to read as up to date as possible because this Florence was an adult when she left Hungary! So she's deliberately trying to be as American as possible to avoid suspicion.There's no ties to Hungary in her appearance in this point in the show. I think this Florence is very involved in trying to get her father back, and she has rather more ties to the American government than usual.

In style, I wanted to try to pay homage to some of my favorite mid-century illustrators. Coby Whitmore and René Gruau were especially the ones I looked to for this. I tried to take influence from Gruau's color choices and his trick of black lineart on the outside, colored lineart on the inside. So, this was a little bit of a study for me in trying to learn from artists I really like too!

I have become quite fond of this au actually! I'd have to do more research for it to come to anything, but it's been fun harking back to the original concept for Chess, and I'd love to make more stuff for it.

A quick little queens thing that I couldn’t get out of my head. Based on this amazing fic by horseGhost on ao3. (although the American/the Russian is still my stupid gay otp)

*updated for bang fix

[chaoticsoysauce]

So I decided to do pencil sketches of each fruit from drqco's 'of the peaches and the mangos' on Ao3

I honestly love the fic to bits and it warms my heart each time I read it

MORE CHESS ART! But this time the original west end cast (still my fav tbh). It’s work in progress as you see but it will become art nouveau because come on chess goes well with art nouveau. (I just really wanted to draw Murray!Freddie in art nouveau xD)

[brenandrats]

forgot that it was molokov thinking it originally sorry i have the sense of humor of a ten year old boy

i drew the guy from the chess musical saying balls i’ll show you as soon as i get home dude

[frosty-fern]

Here’s some chess everyone. Freddie was very much inspired by @awesomesaurous character design cause it’s iconic.
