Keep the snark to yourself. This is chess variant art, and it falls within the purpose of this website.

A figure with a horse head or helmet doesn't remind me of a centaur.

As I was saying, it is hard to accurately represent a centaur without using a fully figurine piece. But some people are interested in representing a centaur in a manner that would be a better fit with a Staunton set. This is a difficult challenge, and I am using AI art here to illustrate some of my ideas for how this might be done. If you think you have a better idea for how to represent a Staunton-compatible centaur, please share it.
