Badass wanted !

[Mabuse]

Hey,
i always search for Badguys-gfx to make life miserable for player characters

so if you want your guy sit (for example) on one of these thrones, and players really start to hate you and/or begin to laugh about this "silly overpowered" foe ?

then start to create real badasses, sorcerers, demons, abominations - make life miserable for players

Edit:
screenies removed
just no spoil

but if you are interested in developing SX/RPG Maps and Content in Wesnoth PM me.

[Mabuse]

ah yes, and a last note about the unit gfx -
ONE standing frame for a unit is enough basically, makes not only coding easier
animations (except cool/awesome/overpowered idle animations which are welcome) are not needed, since in SX the speed is most likely at max anyway.

also scenery sprites are welcome, a huge pile of bones for instance (that may cover (at least partially) 7 tiles)

Why is this in the Art Workshop forum if you aren't actually working on any art?

This coming from the same guy who posted this?

[Mabuse]

hey JW whats your problem with me ?
pls tell me, to shorten the whole thing a bit

i really dont care much if you like me or not, this thread is utterly at the right spot and its utterly correct to ask if people may want to make some demons, abomintaions that can be used in dark-styled sourroundings

now you pop up and have a strange problem with something, i assume its something personal, keep it for you, i dont care about it

[Mabuse]

.. and yes the comment in the thread came from me. the ghast or whatever it would be, doesnt look good.. seriously. the half head, with the mouth on the chest, its really no good design for the ghoul. the ghould should stay recognizeable

seriously i'd prefer (and probably use ) one of the page 1 designs - but the thread developed in a wrong direction somehow.

ghastspike.png (2.8 KiB) Viewed 3871 times

ghast.png (3.39 KiB) Viewed 3875 times

lvl 3 advancement should look more bloated, more brutal, bigger. still same "basic appereance" as a ghoul.

that mouth on chest thingy could be an own monster, but for that the frankensteined "ghoul"-look doesnt help, it makes it boring, since we all know the ghoul, so theres nothing new to see imo

[Mabuse]

or this attempt, basically it is exactly what i had in mind:

gorger.png (6.4 KiB) Viewed 3860 times

need more of work obviously, arm, legs, and the head must look more dangerous and stuff, but thats details, it is a solid base design. ok, this one is maybe already too bloated , there could be a bit skin hanging from his belly, it dosent need to be under extreme tension -

anyway:
why does Dark Dream waste time and tries to make mainline Ghoul lvl3 if he could make tons of Lvl4/5 monsters as he wishes ?

making art for mainline is a job (thinking about anmations and stuff), making sprites for fun, is just fun. . also i wouldn be frustrated if somehting doesnt make it into mainline. the art itself is the goal kinda.



ah, btw, a lvl 4 ghoudl would make it immediatly into my SCn without much thinking (as long its cool) ... somethign like "jabba the hut", with big mouthes everywhere you want !

[JW]

Wow....are you serious? I PMd you when your post was only this:

hey JW whats your problem with me ?
pls tell me, to shorten the whole thing a bit

Then you edit it to add this?:

Wow, wtf is your issue? I told you in PM I don't have a problem with you but you're triple posting now and trying to make this personal....for what reason? Do you even know what PMs are? That's where I messaged you. Instead of replying there you edit your last post here then add two more posts to try to make it look like I have a personal issue with you?

Whatever.

[turin]

Requesting art without showing any of your own is considered bad form around here - our artists generally already have stuff they're doing, and there are plenty of other UMC projects that are actually going to go somewhere, so why would they help you? Threads like that are just wastes of space.

If you're going to use this thread to post your own art, go ahead. If you're just talk (as your first post suggests) and don't actually have any art to show us (Wesnoth maps and scenarios don't count), do us a favor and don't post in the Art Workshop section...

And your personal attack on JW was completely unwarranted; what he said was not personal at all, it was pointing out that you're not actually working on any art, and this is the art workshop, so why post here?

[Mabuse]

Whatever.

lol. i edited my post before i read your PM

[Mabuse]

you're not actually working on any art, and this is the art workshop, so why post here?

hmm yes, and you dont even have something constructive to say, nor working on art eiher, so why post here ?

btw, and i see map making as a form of art, i dont know how you see this though -
ok, i haven looked at your maps, maybe its no big art, also ok then-

so take a look at my maps and then think if you would like a monster made by you to be there.

if yes its fine, if not, its also ok.
so pls punish me with not making art/anything for me.
instead pls post more often in this thread that nobody will make something for me.

i just know that some cool badasses would be used one thousand times more than a portrait or whatever, not even nessessarily by me.

so this is more a general, umm, encouragement.

but thats just as a sidenote, if somone has a spare minute/hours, make a monster - you can be sure that it will be gladly used by someone


but, the main question that comes to my mind:
why do you even post in this thread, what you want to achieve with that -

you wont make art or wont make anything at all, ok, thats your decision
but what have i to do with it

[Mabuse]

but i guess this thread leads to nothing good anyway -
can be closed
