Davidson says, "Out of all my favorites, the black Bishop is my very favorite because he was a struggle. I was running out of the color that I needed. So I thought, 'go back to the drawing board.' I drew it all out again thinking, 'this didn't work, but I still have plenty of black and silver.' And then I got kind of carried away and put his eyes on and put a nose back on him. And you know he is one of my favorites."
