Re: Scalefolk rework
Actually i like this plan, savra.
But only one little thing: you can't upgrade poison effect via tech (techs for snakemen which upgrade their poison).
As for stats i will leave that for @Alexander82 for now.

The reason I made so many was to try and compensate for the amount we have to replace. I might add more in the future but first I want to get the units on this list done.
Their was a remade image for hunters but that looks made of straw so it could work. I'll set the images next to the corresponding units.
Also made things a bit easier to see and do stats for. They just need the finished stats which I'll wait on Alexander for.

Re: Scalefolk rework
don't worry about that. I prefer a slow start with implementations step by step

Ok. Images look fine for remakes though?

I have no time to concentrate on scalefolk until dwarves aren't ready to go but I saw some nice one

Re: Scalefolk rework
As a heads up, this is kinda what I had in mind as a draconian.

Is this close to what you had in mind?Puss_in_Boots wrote: ↑Sat Aug 24, 2019 5:51 pm If they're going to be Meso-American based, I want Quetzalcoatl (A god that's usually a feathered flying lizard) to be their super unit instead of all the current dragons. If not, I still want a unit based off Quetzalcoatl.
But honestly that's an amazing redesign.

Re: Scalefolk rework
It's looking good so far, use 64 px height, and try to put the body higher up and the shadow below away from it so it looks like it's flying. Also add feathers close to the head, and definitely make it lighter.
OLÉ
Re: Scalefolk rework
Ok I'll try something. Btw it does have feathers on its head but I might try something to make it a bit more "feathery".
Re: Scalefolk rework
Scratch my flying snake, we had one done already.
Good thing I took a relook into the scaledfolk topic, here's lynx shafirs one.
And her salamander (albeit without the robes...)

Re: Scalefolk rework
Every sub should be based off different culture/styles. For example serpents will be more egyptian-like.
I was thinking to kobolds more like neutral as they were originally designed but some of these designs seem good

Re: Scalefolk rework
I updated the list with new images and the such, kobalds are complete, lizardmen are almost, and you just made the snakemen easier to modify. Nagas I was thinking of Just giving them tridents made of bone, Draconians I based off the Aztec style but changed shield from being simple leather (designed that way to block obsidian weapons) over to wood which can deflect swords and the such better. Plus it's more unique. (Scaledfolk wouldn't entirely copy the Aztec culture.)
Re: Scalefolk rework
Reworked Lamia, made armour somewhat different, in that I added 2 snake emblems on it similar to Egyptian armour that has 2 wings on it. (It usually is worn by high ranking soldiers.)

Re: Scalefolk rework
Will it count as snake sub?
I think it is too dark though, but maybe with some reshading it will improve

Re: Scalefolk rework
It's just a snakemen, the armour is still a work in progress and the scales are supposed to be dark but I could try and make it brighter. The armour is supposed to be more Egyptian like so it's probably going to be gold chainmail (they new how to work metals like gold and such but not steel and iron so well)

Re: Scalefolk rework
When drawing dark metal I tend to make its shading stronger, with more difference between the dark part and the brighter part.

Re: Scalefolk rework
I do have the old image of the lamia if you'd like to see that too.
I think it's a bit better.

Sure. Right now I'm trying to figure out how to make the nagas look.

Re: Scalefolk rework
Any concepts?
Maybe they could be similar to snakemen but with a sea serpent pattern.
Anyway lizards were meant to act as amphibious units

Re: Scalefolk rework
Well, I had a few concepts on my old post on nagas but here's one I did just now.
I realize lizardmen are the amphibious units but the nagas would be like skeleton pirates were lizardmen would be like average skeletons on water. Big speed difference. Also the nagas benefit from snakemen upgrades.

Re: Scalefolk rework
Well for main water subspiece the fishmen would fit even more - after all those are scaledfolks, not reptilans.

Re: Scalefolk rework
I think nagas would be good, maybe fish people as sub so we could expand on it more without so much limits from base race.

Scalefolks are actually reptilian species. Don't make the name fool you

Lizards were actually meant to move at full speed in both water and land. They already are like skeleton pirates.Savra wrote: ↑Mon Sep 02, 2019 2:44 pm Well, I had a few concepts on my old post on nagas but here's one I did just now.

Naga might, however, be strictly related to water environments (so have high water speed but no land speed at all).

Re: Scalefolk rework
That could work.
Btw, another draconian concepts.
