Okay, I understand you. Anyway, thanks for the discussion. Thanks to you, I had a better idea of how the Naga body works in real life.

As for the little helmet, Yes, I noticed it myself. I will fix this issue in a more or less definitive sprite in era. You noticed correctly, this lvl 2 commands the slaves. That's why, by the way, he hides his face under a helmet - in the event of an uprising, punishers like him are killed first. In General, the Naga in this faction initially command only slaves, then either become full-fledged commanders of all troops, or become punishers and specialize in slaves.

Sketched level 2. Nukelavi-black spear. Since he doesn't need to control the horse, both hands got weapons. And he is dressed in elements of armor that he removed from the soldiers he killed.

I don't see dunefolk wearing winter coats but maybe that's just me. Dunefolk actually look still fine on ice / snow, but units with coats like these on desert...
Nukelavi
Their hair makes them look a bit like indians.

I don't understand what the ogres of Tumen have in common with the people of the desert. It's a completely different design. The desert people look like something like Arabs, ogres-like Mongols and Tatars in leather and bone armor. The drawing style is also completely different.

It's cool that you have associations with Indians. I wanted to make sprites of this fraction was similar to something to the East, South, far from Europe.

Actually, bull monster, shaman, this thing all would fit indian themed faction pretty well in my opinion. I was just surprised because Nuckelavi is I think form nordic mythology.

Yes, nuckelavee are creatures from mythology of the Celts, but I thought that the concept of rider-mutant suitable for the east. lore steppe nuckelavee, respectively, I changed under theme of the steppe.

really cool this one as well. with the magenta on its arm it looks a bit confusing since the long arm is on the same line as with the horses back leg. but i a sure in-game with others colours it will look better (except red maybe?)

Thanks! Everything looks normal in the game. Maybe I'll show you a screenshot later.

Today I drew a sketch of an Eastern vampire. During the day, it looks like a person, at night it will turn into a creepy ghoul. So far, the daily version. According to the idea, this is a warrior in dark clothes and an iron mask like the Polovtsians.

Nice sprite again!
I just want to comment on the shield however, it looks the shield is facing a bit too much in the wrong directions. Right now it is facing to the left but the way he holds it and also combat with according to his stance - wouldn't he hold it a bit more tilted to the right?
