Not bad, but not awesomely good (Not that my art is anything special or anything). Why is it that people like my talon knight so much... The level 3 warrior, mine had a different sword though. I like them though.

I like these. you need more variation with the heads though (try recolouring the hood on a Mage). And the level-3 unit's sword is too sharply outlined.

I'm not quite sure why the lizard-rider is there, he doesn't fit in with the others at all. How's this?

IMO, the lizard/dino's green is too bright and contrasts too strongly with the overall colour scheme of the others. Therefore, it gives the impression that it somehow doesn't fit.

Perhaps making it into a paler or darker green might be better?

Hmm, they're all good for frankensteined units, but the second levels for the rider are made fully by neorice. I wonder if I should tell him? ;)

I know that... they just fit my story, and they dont really need any modifications.

And about that lizard rider... i just wanted some variations, but i think it doesnt fit... any idea??

No need, everyone does it anyway;

Besides GPL or whatever that thing is calledd pretty much means that anything I donate to wesnoth, is free for anyone to use, if they use it under the gpu..gl whatever, right; So even if you told me, if he's doing this for inclusion in wesnoth, he's technicaly allowed to.


Besides, this is the reason I only donate weird or non characteristic stuff to wesnoth; either it's just not close to me, so I couldn't care if people mangled it; or it's just too weird to use properly (dawarfw darawrf, dawawrf whatever it's called again, EP?)


Though I -would- suggest changing them, the problem with using unaltered unit graphics is that someone else will do the same, resulting in different units that look exactly the same.

Now you make me curious. What is actual your "characteristic stuff" as I recall your drakes couldn't get more personal.

No Sabata, nothing wrong. I don't mind that people use my art, but this is the third time someone has used it. I just thought it was kinda odd.
Fear me! For I am higher level than you!
