The Battle for Wesnoth Forums

:shock: The female White Mage looks eerily similar to a female acquaintance of mine... And a friend of mine too... bizarre... but very cool. :) i modeled her remotely after myself. :? Haha!!! Victory!!! I win!!!! *Garen dances happily about* Ehem... sorry, just happy that a suggestion of mine was a...

Okay, sorry guys for exposing you to my lame sense of humor.

But it sure was fun...

Next in line is... the Archer sprite!!! Not as bad as the Hunter, but still needs plenty of work. ATM, he's based off the Javelineer, which I may need to change. So along with normal comments, if anyone has any concept ideas, I'd be happy to hear them. :) These are all part of a race of humans calle...

Kitty, yes, I think the symbol is good. It hints at sort of evil without actually being a pentagram. And... I say this a lot, but brilliant job once again. I'm looking forward to seeing the next portrait.

I was thinking a kind of "mage of light" type illumination skill. This sprite is that good. That way it's shining from all sides. Also, I'll probably introduce a new skill, a sort of "light from heaven" thing so it's also illuminated from the top.

Right--the boots go up to his knees, his legs go up just below his belt.

So yeah... I've been working on this for a while, and I just thought people might like to see a really good sprite. Maybe people can use this for examples or frankensteining and stuff...

I didn't comment on the previous orc portrait because I didn't see anything wrong. But this is much better. The belt that overlaps the other looks like it's shriveling up (bad breath? haha). Also, both belts look immensely thick, as if they're a few inches above his chest. Also, perhaps have the swo...

The pentagram does look kind of odd, as you feared. Also, we probably don't want to use an actual pentagram - people might think it's demonic, some neo-pagans use it, and there's supposed to be No Religion In Wesnoth (NRIW), etc - but rather some sort of pentagram-esque device; IIRC, we've previous...

Ahh, I see. Thank you, Quietus.

Did this fix it? And is there further things that should be fixed? Thanks again.

-Edit-

Touched him up a bit, stuck him on snow terrain. I'm starting work on his animations, unless anyone has any more comments.

Here's the hunter completely redone. There seems to be something awkward about it... so comments are appreciated as usual.

Thanks.

I wonder that as well.

I won't lie, I was wondering the same thing, lol.

@ Irrevenant - Thanks for the input. Is this better? Anything else that needs to be fixed?

@ Doofus01- I'll get to the hunter sprite soon enough... I think I'll just completely redo him. It'd probably be easier than trying to fix the current sprite. Thanks for the input!

Ahh, very nice.

I'm going to be picky and say add a pixel on his left ankle (our right). Right where his foot and leg attach to each other, it seems to be very thin. But if a pixel is all you need to change... nice...

In which case there should probably be some hair sweeping around behind her neck... even just a little bit. Other than that... brilliant, Kitty. I'm looking forward to the shaded version when you get time. No actually it looks exactly like it should, when you sweep your hair to one side like that y...
