Re: New attack icon topic
Improvements on the metal thing of the saurian staff. I consider it done, but if anyone could point me how to improve it further I'll continue to work on it.
Also some new stuff on the golden sceptre. Dolphins and a top bluish jewel.
As always if anyone wants to try to edit those feel free to share the results.

Re: New attack icon topic
I think the green glowing ring is not centered on the jewel. I think it should go a little left and up.
The dolphins are a nice idea, but they make the top of the scepter look too fragile. Maybe they could go around the handle.

Re: New attack icon topic
I made fireclaws icon for the PoS brazier creation, and then fire breath one to make it work for the fire guardian.

Re: New attack icon topic
I've FINALLY committed the two War Blade attack icons from way back down in this thread. We could still use a few more drake attack icons:
War Talon - three-bladed version of the War Blade, used by the clasher line and the blademaster.
Battle Claws - standard claws, but with an armoured gauntlet over the top, and the claws reinforced with metal blades.

Re: New attack icon topic
I like them, but in my opinion they are too "sharp". High contrast makes fire breath extremely hot, so maybe it's good.mystic x the unknown wrote:I made fireclaws icon for the PoS brazier creation, and then fire breath one to make it work for the fire guardian.

Re: New attack icon topic
The black outlines look bad, especially on the scaled down version.
Otherwise, very nice.
Maybe more contrast to the ornaments on the wrist?

Re: New attack icon topic
It seems to me that the shading on the wrist and the shading on the blades is not in agreement. I would suggest lightening the shading of the inner curve of the blades.
Other than that, it looks quite awesome.

Re: New attack icon topic
Thanks for suggestions. I tried to make some improvements (I'm not sure, if this is exactly what you want):

Re: New attack icon topic
That looks great, but I was talking about more towards the base of the blade on the inner curve.

Re: New attack icon topic
They need to be longer and a little thinner, but that's certainly along the right lines. Nice work =)

Re: New attack icon topic
Also, a good deal brighter down the inside edge - remember, they're sharp down the inside, blunt down the outside.

Re: New attack icon topic
Needs some sharpening up (particularly in terms of definition around the fingers), but otherwise, looks fine.
