It's a possibility, though I might have to name them something other than "Lizardmen" to be somewhat original. Or Totems. I was considering making a Totem faction.

Oh bugger. Now you've activated my Imagination Hyperdrive Engine. Be prepared for monstrosities later.

If you have around a billion different faction ideas (i know i do) then why don't you just make a faction that was created by an incredibly insane hermit who animated all his ideas and made them fight for him? With a totem here, a lizardman there and a wose transport somewhere else?

The only flaw i can see with your warrior is how the pink part of the blade doesn't quite match the metal part. i know it's supposed to be like that but it's just a little too far off in my opinion. also, his right foot (on our left) makes him look like he's standing in a weird position, with his toes facing outwards.

And then there's the shadow: this one doesn't matter so much, but i just thought i'd point it out: wesnoth shadows are 50% opacity (i think) and yours aren't. His shadow could stand to be little longer too.

It is a shark. Not my best work, I know. Just wanted to try out something new. IMO it kinda worked, kinda didn't.

Okay yeah. That shark was sucky. Oh well. I also made another lizard dude. Maybe I'll switch his burning sword/metal stick thingy for a normal burning stick and call it a Lv2.

the only thing wrong with the shark is the tail fin, IMO. oh, i think it needs a mouth too.

for the knife and knife on fire lizardmen the arm holding the weapon is a bit indistinct, and the position of it seems to be kind of weird. try putting it in the same position as the lvl 1.

i suggest giving one of the lvl 2 options (or maybe a lvl1) a spear. the knife without fire lizardman seems as if he could be holding one without much of a position change.also, these guys don't look advanced enough to be able to make or even use a sword. i suggest you stick with clubs, torches and spears/pointy sticks.


also: i have a few art ideas if you ever run out.

Yes! I love this. You could use a shaman or something. And maybe a netter->javelin thrower->firespitter for ranged options.

I'd rather get pointing at the right leg (left from the lizzies point of view) than the arm, there's a little thing that makes it look like the leg was straight but with some weird lump instead of 3-part animalistic like on lev 1 and 3
hmm did you make the flame yourself? if so maybe you could try making some burning rats? the attempt currently availible on the workshop is..overflamey
Like cats? I've made a whole faction of them to kick ass with!

Who wants a golden spaceship? For free! (looks at the Thunderstone thread)

This could go in Thunderstone. Or any other number of Scifi UMC factions, really.

What, nobody wants golden stuff?

Well here's more stuff. Have fun with a shiny new Dwarven Music Golem.

It has a Trombone-Clarinet-flute gun arm that shoots waves of dazzlingly awesome music, and its control board is the keyboard of an organ. Oh, and its legs are violin things attached to microphones (for teh Karaoke).

:P

I don't know what I was thinking when I came up with this idea. Too much Tap Tap Revenge I guess.

wow. my music teacher would ride this to school if it ever came out on the market.

it looks like a dwarvish meca to me, if you de-musicafy it. also, gold is an impracticle metal for any kind of spaceship or weapon or anything, because it's too darn soft and expensive. i suppose white gold would work though, but it still seems like a waste of money when you could use steel or whatever.

First, gold looks cool. Second, how does the idea of a robot warmech that uses music as a weapon make any more sense than a gold-plated mecha?

And thirdly, gold isn't the only metal that can be that color. Especially when it comes to sci-fi stuff.
