very nice! can you do animations for shadow and nightaunt? i'm very bad doing artwork.

Sure though the currently used picture for the shadow doesn't seem very "idle"
I think it's better to use the same arms as the nightgaunt for idle and use the arms on the shadow for attack.

OK... so now you have a grey furry demon with its tongue sticking out.

ha "nightaunt"

poo. These graphics are good, but they just aren't right for the shadow.

It's like that "burning ghost" that this was incidentally derived from. [censored] for a ghost, but would be very cool for a fire elemental.

ironically, you have inadvertently created animations for that thing, too - just shift the color back to firey, and we suddenly have fire elementals level 1 and 2. And it's great for them to possess this shape, too.

Personally I like this shadow a lot better than Jetryl's. It looks cool although it isn't very shadowy, it seems very corporeal. It also looks very similar to a certain fire spirit/elemental you did a while ago.

Shadow != corporeal.

Why not just making it semi-transparent? This way, it wouldn't look corporeal :)

Then, it will look like a big, hulking, MONSTER that isn't even substantial. Not very good IMO.

Making the troll transparent doesn't make it seem not corporeal. The same IMHO applies here.

The old shadow wouldn't realy work; it would either be a thick black ink-like mass or a flat shadow; wich both would look ugly; I made it a thick pack of evil fog stuff wich makes it fit in more with the pre-leveld ghost.

I don't think anyone likes the old shadow... but IMHO Jetryl's shadow is better than yours... yours is good, but its not very shadowy. His seems more shadowlike, somehow.
