Description Gonna upload some of my sprite work, because there's no reason to just let my sprites lie around without ever really showing them around;

Here's the first thing I decided to upload;

A long time ago I made a faction for a free open-source game called wesnoth [ [link] ] called the Drakes,

Now as you have it with things you made ages ago, the quality of the sprites I made then aren't really up to par with my current tastes; so I've been working on revamping them [albeit slowly]

here's the things I had done so far.


for some insight on some changes:

- all of the units are bigger due to the Drakes being the biggest race, and due to a thing often refered to "creeping biggerism" most human units are now bigger than the old drakes, so to compensate for this the new drake graphics are bigger; to avoid having tiny drakes compared to human units.

-I've also changed the weapon designs a bit to be less like flat out human units, their bladed weapons are now more claw like rather than normal swords for example.

I've had a lot of help with the Drake animations by Jetryl, but generally speaking I do all my pixelart + animations in ms paint and then I test it in animation shop.

Definitely an improvement! (though I don't mind the old ones that much). The new weapons are the winner for me - much more drake-like. I always thought the Drakes could have so much more interesting (not to mention relevant!) attacks. I hope they take them into consideration as defaults - at any rate, I hope you at least get them as an add-on faction.

Pentalis [2009-03-23 07:09:05 +0000 UTC]

While the new drakes look much better than the previous, I have a little complaint. Why such small feet?, The glider and clasher have very small feet and it looks hard to keep balance with those.
I think that's my only critique, apart from the personal opinion that the glider would look better standing straight.

Despite all I just said, I insist that your new sprites are excellent. The Burner and Warden looking specially awesome (note that both have apropriately sized feet too ).

Keep rocking!.

Wow, the Drakes looks more intimidating!

I personally like the weapon change in the new Drake Warrior sprite.

I haven't been to the forums since the last great forum crash, so this is the first new set of v1.5 sprites that I saw. Anyway, it looks like v1.6 would look very good.

I'd just like to say that I fully support your efforts in recreating these. I think this would be a wonderful overhaul of the drake race for wesnoth.

For those of you 'remembering' this game, come back and play it!
