Weapon Graphics

Post by Gafgarion »

I noticed in Wiki that there were a few Weapon graphics that needed finishing up.

My original intent was to make a Crossbow graphic since C33 is working on Dwarven Crossbowmen, but I got off-track.

I did 2 Weapon graphics: Wail and Net. If these can be put to use, great, and if they aren't needed then oh well (I didn't spend too much time on them :wink: ). It's the thought that counts, right? :)

There is alreay an orc Xbowman so the crosbow graphic would be usefull anyway.Your graphic look nice.

Hehe I did note a few inaccuracies on the Wiki page, so I checked the latest CVS. I had done a Lightning graphic thinking it, from the Wiki page, that it hadn't been done, but I checked the CVS and found that there, in fact, was one (a cooler looking one than mine I might add :) ).

Personally, I'd put the wail from left to right, and without the face. it looks like a theater mask. My 2 øre.

I think the mask should still be there. It looks cool and it would be hard to realize what the weapon is otherwise, IMHO. Left to right might look better, but I don't really have an opinion about this.

Sorry I forgot to update the wiki :-(
Yo should add "drop shadow" to the net and maybe make the weigths larger and not "all black"

I touched up the Wail picture a bit.

I agree totally about the weights and the drop shadow. You wouldn't happen to have a picture/information of/about a real weighted net lying around, would you? I ask because I'm not sure what material the weights would be made out of (lead?) and the gleam that they would give off.
