Several of our mainline campaigns are in the works for upgrades at the moment, which includes adding characters and enhancing existing scenarios. We are looking for more artwork to supplement these upgrades, including the following:
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,...
Please make sure to read the wiki page regarding how Wesnoth handles copyright. Not reading on how Wesnoth handles copyright does not prevent the information stated therein from applying to everything posted to this forum.
There have been numerous important forum posts and wiki articles written by users and developers. We reference these pages a lot, and decided to put them together in a convenient list.
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...
There are certain technical requirement for mainline portraits. For easy access, I'm going to sticky them here so people can read them and link to them rather than having to type them out every time they're needed.
Generic unit portraits:
Two sizes are needed. One goes in the help, one is...
Welcome to Battle for Wesnoth's Art Forum. This is where a lot of our in-game images get hammered into shape, and is a place designed for the discussion of art designed for use in our game. In this topic, we've listed all the info you'd need to do your own work.
Is there a post here on the ethics of using art from the game? I think the GPL makes it legal but what do the artists think? Is it cool as long as you credit the game or should you email each artist and ask permission or would they just prefer we not use it at all?
so I've been playing descent into darkness and found it very distracting to play as essentially Konrad wearing a robe. So I've made some edits in hope to make it look less frankensteined together and more like the portrait... and ended up doing his necromancer form too. animations on the way
I've been playing HttT (again) and as I went to BlackWater Port scenario I noticed that Sir Kaylan have a different portrait than generic GrandKnight. Cool, I thought, but then I looked and saw that his sprite looks the same as other GK. So I spent a few hours tweaking GK sprite, trying to come up...
Hi! I recently started to help Battle for Wesnoth and I made, with the help of Zookeeper, a first art piece for the Orcish Incursion campaign.
Zookeeper and I agreed on a picture with a calm forest environment where you can see the reflection of an orc in an elvish blade laying against a tree.
The...
I've started making a skeletal dragon portrait, hopefully it will be good enough for the mainline. I've made this to show everyone what I'm doing, this is what I've done so far. It's just the outline currently but I will finish it, probably not soon though but depending on how much time i put into...
I just wanted to point out that the unit types Great Troll and Troll Warrior have the same sprite. I didn't see this recorded on any Missing/wanted art list so I thought it might be helpful to post and point it out.
Keep up the good work!
(I asked on the users' forum first and was forwarded...
Since there is a spearman facing north sprite, so I made a sergeant facing north sprite. There is a crossbow variation as well (since the sergeant has a crossbow).
dire-wolf-smaller.png Hi, I'll be doing some portraits whilst I make my campaign, some will be for core/mainline stuff, shall I post them here? Here's the one I've done for the Dire wolf, but I don't think he looks mean enough, so maybe he's a lesser sort of wolf, any way point being that I'll be...
I was reading some of the topis in Art Development and noticed a lot of sprites and animations were left unfinished. Last updates for many were around 2010-2011.
Are there any particular reasons why they were discontinued (eg. Development said no)?
Some animations look already fluent and only seem...
I remember that I tiled the graveyard fence from Secret of the Ancient some years ago. Basically it follows the mainline fence macro. Since the campaign is now mainline, improving on the custom terrains might be a desired contribution?
The graveyard fence is not really an improvement, but it looks...
I got a very productive lunch break.. I was able to pencil and ink this nice cuttlefish portrait start, still need some clearing and a bit more tentacle detail at the bottom but no time nor tools at hand here.
I have a larger image available if anyone wants to improve or colour it.
We are a small team working on a new online game in the style of Travian. We have a very limited budget (out of our pockets), and are considering using ready made artwork (possibly with some adaptation). I checked the licence of Battle for Wesnoth on Github and it says the source is...
I know some people have already made zombie wolves, but as far as i know they don't have animation and none of them have been committed for mainline yet.
Anyway, here is the one I've made a while ago, but never got around using for anything. It might need some changes and I'm willing to work on it...
I wanted to give a try to creating sprites for Under the Burning Suns.
I know Jetrel is already working on this. It's just my humble contribution and I know my skills might not be up to standard yet. However, I'd like to have your feedback on this to make it as good as possible, and...
@ LordBob » New story art dump. They're all images meant for the Rise of Wesnoth
A big enticement to play TRoW again! :)
@ beetlenaut: My favorite is A Harrowing Escape
Yeah, great landscape! ...
Um, is the second person in the foreground a woman?
Perhaps she should rather...
I realize the khalifate faction is not been stabily released yet but I was wondering if anyone was working on portraits for them because they are fairly widespread by now and I believe they are well balanced so I thought to ask what the plans for khalifate images are? Also is their anyone working...
Namely the:
szepter and the elvish tree.
Are there any others? Maybe the orcish eye?
Is there something for the dwarfs or trolls?
Maybe a hammer? And some other for trolls like white hand or whatever?
What about drakes, mermen and saurians?
Please post or link what you have. Highest resolution...
Hi
I'm going to try my hand at a portrait for some UMC. The post about portrait requirements ( ) suggests 400x400px. Is this recommendation still current? Is there anything more current/other requirements I should be aware of? I know about
Something that I always wondered about, is why the Elven archer was never replaced graphically with an Centaur, It would make more sense, for example it would explain better his better mobility and defense in the woods and other terrains than average horses, and also his ability with bows while...
I was looking in the Art Development subforum (the developer-only one) and I saw, from a while ago, a new set of Loyalist baseframes that have not been commited as they lack animations. However, I would like to suggest that the Heavy Infantryman is committed.
I just realized that a team of former Wesnoth developers copied Wesnoth's castle and other images and relicensed them with the MIT. This non-copyleft license is not compatible with the GPL. The questionable github project wesnoth2 can be found here:
Just like any freshman I should say few things about myself. I've got experience in graphic design but my life goal is to become Concept Artist. Unfortunately I'm a procrastinator. Without a short term goals I give up far too quickly. So I decided that I will get back to the...
Hello, long play this game. I loved it. Now I'm learning to develop games for android, and there is some material, such as images and music, I could use for my game on android. No source code or the like. Only images and maybe some music.
Would already published in the game, not walking in the...
I'm using Wesnoth's bat sprite and a few sounds in my game. Whom and how should I credit for them? There is no per-asset info about authors or their contact info, so if I want to hire the artist to do more sprites, then no luck. :doh: Is that a defense from people purchasing complete rights to...
I just wrote a post of how unrealistic is having someone running fast like a horse or a griffin, I'm referring to the foodpad, what's the point of having a mount if you can run at the same speed if you are quick ?
I proposed to take off 1 Mp, but then I had this idea, why not making just an...
