Anthropomorphic version, design and artwork by Tyson Tan.

EDIT: 2013-02-26, added more detail, subtle expression adjustment, simple background and color management fix.

This is my anthropomorphic version of Queen Chrysalis of the changelings. In this picture, I depicted her as a younger queen, not long after her ascending to the throne. She was still a shy and gentle girl here.

I really liked their take on Queen Chrysalis. Unlike most ruler villain who would just sit behind the curtain, she as the queen risked her life to infiltrated enemy territory, all alone, fighting bravely against enemies that much more powerful than her, for the fortune of her people. Even though she looked mean and evil in her plots, deep in her heart she might just wanted to find her true love. Besides, if changelings depend on LOVE to live, then I think they are not necessarily BAD, don't they? At least Shinning Armor's love didn't seem to be affected at all after the event.

I guess Queen Chrysalis may actually just wanted to JOIN Equestria, but she had forgot how to be kind to other races, after all the hardships her kind may had suffered. Well, just another fanboy imagination! Hope you enjoy the picture!

I love this villain, probably my favorite of all time. She is a very cunning one, but also very caring. I have never seen any other villain go into a crowd of people with almost no knowledge of the person she is disguised as and portraying them just for her followers. I give you a star rating because I have never seen anyone let Chrysalis be something other than a evil queen. Kudos to you! What I probably love most about this is her dress. It is gorgeous, and the wings are also a lovely feature. Keep up the good work.
What do you think?

OMG I LOVED THIS EPISODE I JUST WATCHED IT AND IT WAS THE BEST DOUBLE-SHOW EPISODE EVER!!!!!!!!! SO MEEPING AWESOME!!!!!!!!!

Ahem. (discreet cough) Anyway...

(Sorry about that...)

So! Lemme see.

Vision. GREAT! I love the wings. In the show I loved how they WHIRRED and this captures the whirring pretty good :D Also the face is just...just wow.

Originality. Anthro is pretty...well I've seen a lot of anthro ponies before and it really isn't NEW but it's still a great concept and, I have to say I've never seen a Chrysalis anthro yet. well, i haven't really looked but that's not the point. the point is that this is not original up to a certain point...I guess. I'm not too good at critiques...:iconfacehoofplz:

Technique. The only thing I can say: This gets, not just five but five MILLION stars. It looks professional and, like I said earlier, the face is :iconso-awesomeplz:

(I hope plz accounts show up in critiques ^^;)

Impact. Meep the what. I mean, this totally made a huge impression. The face especially. I also like the green thingy on the bottom of her dress...though...Chrysalis in pigtails?

......


Anyway...(OMG wow almost 200 words!! FTW!?) So, this is a very good deviation and, to wrap up this (LONG!!) critique, KUDOS FOR A GREAT JOB :D :iconthumbsupplz:

This is one of my all time favorites of Chrysalis.
You look at her and can't help but feel there's more going on.
Loving your take on her, Fantastic job!

Excellent work, my friend. And since Queen chrysalis is my top fave pony, I'm giving this an 11/10. Nice work.
