Heavy War Elephants Redesign IMPLEMENTED
Heavy War Elephants Redesign IMPLEMENTED
Heavy War Elephants doesn't seem to have elephant armor. Maybe it could have it as design, i mean i don't think war elephants would go to battle bare-skinned right? They are very vulnerable to arrows and stuff with current image.
Currently im not capable of redesigning such huge beasts so could someone else try it?

War elephants. Try to add chain armor or leather around the elephants.

I think it looks a little dirty.
Maybe some references should help.

Re: Heavy War Elephants Redesign
Yeah i was approaching something like that. But I realized we can't paint the elephant itself to pink.
And now armour metal plated.

Re: Heavy War Elephants Redesign

Re: Heavy War Elephants Redesign
Does mahout need armor btw? I guess not? To make it unique.

Re: Heavy War Elephants Redesign
No, no, don't be upset. Don't compare yourself to an experience guy. I have been making this things since i got here. You can look at my past sprites in the forum and you will be super cringed. Look on the bright side, you made a good looking leather war elephant, may b we could use it as a skin or an upgrade in the future
There are even better people than me btw, for example, Endru, Alexander, Savra, Stormsaint, Patroid and other artists.

Re: Heavy War Elephants Redesign
An armoured mahout wont be necessary i think, at least its not the elephant which is fighting. The kid on top good get a fix imo.

Re: Heavy War Elephants Redesign
Yeah, i think so too. No need for armoured mahout. Idk about the kid holding a mace though. We should probably leave it like that unless they get an upgrade or something.

Re: Heavy War Elephants Redesign
What do you think @Endru1241? Is this acceptable?
I think the current Heavy War Elephants needs to be replaced. I also remember that this was also a request by Stratego years ago.
Btw, do you think the war elephants needs platforms and people holding stuff? We could try to add those to make it appear more realistic.

I have only seen your avatar. Which is nice. And i don't know whether that is a compliment or not. I am not really interested in painters.

That avatar is made by GoK. Not by myself.
My best in theory drawing would be something like that:
No kidding. I am bad at art drawing.

Re: Heavy War Elephants Redesign
Well i hope my avatar still worth my 5 days for perfection. Honestly. And my previous avatar the vulture worth my 6 hrs.
And if bady can do such nice stuff in 40 min, i bet he can do my Lion in a few hrs.
And this, is still the best i have seen. C'mon guys. Seriously. It is the best example of art ever which reflects the person's sense of humbleness and light temper. but I wish this had been drawn by you.

Re: Heavy War Elephants Redesign
Nah mate, im super bad at animating. And the reason why im so quick with doing something like that is because there is a base image. When i start from a scratch i probably take 1 hour or so to do a good human.
Like this, i made Pillager from a scratch. But this was made pretty quickly thanks to a reference. And there are way better people than me. I currently admire Patroid's Shading and Savra's Drawings.

Well, atleast you are a God at preserving Balance, without you, AoF must've fallen to chaos units. One of the reasons i quit AoF in my early days was because how broken the Orcs are. They destroy literally anything. Art work is superb though, most of it was Savra's and Alexander's.

Replaced.
I think old image was not good or characteristic enough to put into alternatives or ancestors skin pack, but what do you think?

Re: Heavy War Elephants Redesign
Nah, it doesn't have much added design. I doubt anyone would pick an unarmored heavy war elephant as a skin.

What about my question though.
Is it good to have platforms at the elephants?

Re: Heavy War Elephants Redesign IMPLEMENTED
Castles are not necessary imho - as far as I know, that not all war elephants were used like that.
What comes to my mind for Elephants to be used in war, is 3 potential roles:
- fighting platform (mainly for shooting/throwing) - pretty much any extensive castle usage required stability, so I doubt those elephants would be prepared to charge and struggle, rather to stay as calm as possible
- heavy cavalry - that'd be complete opposite of platform, heavy cavalry main usage is breaking the lines, so those elephants would be trained to go wild
- non-batttle - e.g. transportation, draft animal
War elephants in-game would probably be representation of those trained to charge and that doesn't really give much stability as the platform.
They would probably only have a mahout, lying down on the neck and trying his best to control animal direction.
Although - I'm not any expert on elephants.
