I think these ones' heads are too small - make the body smaller (If you scale the head up, it will get fuzzy)

I think the problem with the maelstrom is the wings; the wings are a real pain in the neck. In this case if you look at the tip of his horns, you'll see the wing going behind them, giving the impression that it's bent behind his head. You also have a bit of the old wing poking up behind his head ;)

On the conqueror the wings seem to be the biggest problem as well; you only see one wing (though it could be intentional. I don't know.) and that wing seems to have some issues where it meets up with the haft of the trident. I like the vestigial size as it gives the impression of having been out of use for decades :) His right forearm and his legs do look a bit thin, but that is negligible.

Now, the critique about the wings being given, if you look closely at the sprites I mutilated, I didn't even bother messing with the left wings in most cases :P :lol:

They all look like amazing level 4s and 5s! :Awesome:
One foot in my mouth, and one in the grave; that's the way I like it, and that's the way it'll stay.

Thank you for the feedback Vulpine! :D I will attempt a remake of the Maelstrom with your advice in mind. As for the conqueror i don't really feel like redrawing :whistle: but thank you for the advice (i hadn't even realized that thing on his back was a wing :mrgreen: )

Also here is another sprite. This is the Dwarvish Sage Futuristic, a level 4 Loremaster who has been animated (to the best of my ability), animations can be found in my add-on.

Thank you ForestDragon! It is not as good as the Chancellor but i believe it is acceptable. :)

And now a few minor edits to some drakes: (these aren't significant changes but need because portrait of a drake with green wings for a sprite with red wings doesn't really fit)

I personally think that the maelstrom's red wings don't really match its green scales (it would be better with brownish scales for example), but the chancellor is really cool 8)
Not very active on the forum anymore, but I still read it, and I also still play Wesnoth and draw a bit.
