We are happy to announce that Wesnoth is now able to accept donations on Liberapay . While Wesnoth does rely on the work of dedicated volunteers, no project can function completely cost-free. Revenue from the Apple App Store and from donations goes towards maintaining our servers,...

Write clearly, be nice to others, and be very careful when posting anything related to politics or religion. When asking for help, remember that everyone here is a volunteer. Prefer editing your previous post over double posting. No animated avatars or graphical signatures. Don’t plagiarize other’s...
My idea is this; to make life easier on prospective Frankensteiners, would it be possible to organize a collection of heads, horses, shields, swords, spears, axes, bows, helms, and various other trinkets into a 'palette', in the same way some artists use an overlay with the selected colours around...

The truth is that, for every semi-competent artist producing art for Wesnoth, there are at least 10 people designing campaigns and factions. Doing art for a faction is much more time consuming than “designing” all but the most meticulously balanced faction. Lots of...
Hi! Some may have already seen me on this forum. Putting aside the idea of using in redrawing loyalist (I draw well enough, what would qualify for mainline) I started to draw a faction of dark elves. I know I'm not the first, not I last, but not the one proposed in the Addons factions of drow I...
Hey there,
Over the last months I've created some units LotR-inspired. Most of them have motion pictures as well.
I'll continue to work on this units. My plan is to create (step-by-step of course) the following factions:
Eriador (wip)
Gondor (almost finished)
Rohan
Dwarfes (wip)
Elves
----
Mordor...
I recently uploaded my add-on Corpse Mod 2 and made custom images for many units, where they are dead, but I didn't really manage to do a good frame for the horse units from the Rebels faction. I've tried, as you can see:
But looking at this, I know it's terrible. Maybe someone better at doing...
As you might guess, saurians are my favorite race in Wesnoth by far. I'm surprised that there are no additional saurian sprites of similar quality to the mainline ones - or, at least, I haven't seen such sprites. That's why I decided to make a few, expanding the original unit trees and creating my...
I did some experiments with tiles derived from Wesnoth official maps.
The key idea is that roads and river use the logic of the wooden bridge. Therefore the endings are only visible extensions. They are overlays. Cities (village) and villages are overlays to. There can only be a village a road or...
Hello there, I have been playing BfW for a long time now and i wanted to try making my own sprites from scratch. Well that didn't go so well and after trying some several times I decided that i should first try frankensteining to attain some kind of understanding of how sprites work. So here is my...
Life is ... complex. For a long time I thought I had no creative skills in visual arts, and that I could only admire the works of others. However, having fully translated AtS and IftU to Russian — a giant amount of work in a relative short time — taught me that great things are possible with enough...
In the Ladder Era the Footpad does Slashing damage for his melee attack. I need to have the club art changed slightly to be a hatchet. Would anyone be willing to do this for me? Please and thank you :)
Solestium is a worldbuilding project I have been working on for years. Its been mostly inspired by other universes and games throughout the last couple of years which includes Heroes might & magic, Elder scrolls, Sacred, Warcraft, Warhammer Fantasy and ofcourse Wesnoth.
Hi everyone,
I'm looking for a few portraits for my UMC campaign but could not find if we have a portrait database.
We have the unit database but it is a bit tedious to check every unit of every campaign looking for a portrait.
I saw there was a project for UMC_portrait_book but it was not made....
Hi, I have some old works I made so I want to share them, they just a couple of animation for the level 0 units.
A female peasant and a female ruffian. I good making females :D
Anyway, here they are, feel free to use them.
Just let me know what do you think.
I have tried to create a system of walking corpses like animated corpses from Era of Magic. Something went wrong with my wml, so I decided just to drop my redrawings of default wesnoth units here:
If undead redraws are useful for you, give a comment here. I need it to understand should I make...
Hi, I (the_gnat obviously) have long franken-ized other peoples wonderful artwork, here is the thread were i will now post what a have done. Currently I'm working on the Reign of The Lords add-on so that's probably most of what will show up here!
Greetings everybody,
I am new to making units and coding for wesnoth, and I thought it'd be good to get some feedback on my art, so i'll be posting it all here.
My first project with drawing art has been a arctic faction, mostly consisting of penguins. But also with Polar bears, Seals, Walrus's and...
Howdy, I am making two walker sprites for my 19th century fantasy era. They are the Barbarossa and Prince Albrecht walkers used by the Dwarven Kingdom of Zwergenland.
I am struggling quite a bit with shading and coloring the sprites, here is what I have so far.
I'm interested in creating portrait art for UMC. However, I draw by hand and have never gone through the process of transferring it to the computer and doing all the shading/coloring/rendering, etc. I want to get into it but I am not sure where to start. I went through the tutorials on the...
This thread shows my progress concerning the custom art of my era .
6 factions are posted and discussed. The most recent two faction are not yet implemented in the era.
I am a talented manga artist and If anybody has a mod they want to do than I will do the portraits and pixel art for it. I will send examples of my work on request and regularly will post unit art, please do not download my art without asking me. I have done animations for one game before but don't...
Hello, I would like to share some altered/new sprites that I have been working on to the community of Wesnoth. I was working on making a add-on but I have to abandon it. All the altered/new sprites respectively should be fully credited to the original creators of the sprites as I only...
Hi everyone! I've been playing Wesnoth (mostly campaigns) off and on for quite a while and have a bunch of unit ideas, so I will probably post here at irregular intervals with attempts to make some of them. I tend to flit among interests, so I'm unlikely to post new stuff very often, but I do come...
Hi everybody.
Let me present here some sprites made by me.
Well, actually these are sprites from my campaign and I post this for creating some interest to my campaign, because I just released part 2 of it with 5 new scenarios.
1st line:
Level 1 khalifate skirmisher called Zarif, upgrades to...
