Re: Varangian Redesign
Its good, but although it doesnt look the best overall, there r also no obvious flaws i could help it, so improving this image is beyond my skills
There is no place for false kings here, only those who proves themselves to b the true kings of legend, or serves under me
For I watch over this world looking for those worthy to become kings, and on the way get rid of the fakes and rule over the fools

Re: Varangian Redesign
That is unfortunate. But kinda complimenting me at the same time, so i feel slightly better about it
That "Doesn't look the best" is bothering me a little though.

Art is relative and no drawing can ever reach the realm of perfection, at best it can approach it
and my creativity is not enough to make this drawing better

Re: Varangian Redesign
It's great image, but 2 problems though.
It's a freaking giant.
Seriously - unit is visibly much higher and bigger than any other in game.
2nd thing - you improved armor even more, while it's only medium infantry in game.
It's not supposed to be elite byzantine Varangian Guard - it only represents some mercenary nordic people ( historically fighting mainly in the eastern and south-east parts of Europe).
It's too good for this unit.

This height thing is really pushing me off the cliff.
Hmm... Any possiblity for it to become the Varangian Guard unit? I can reduce the height by 2 pixels if it can.
Still, it's a shame. I wanted my Favorite mercenary to have a cool image.

Re: Varangian Redesign
@Endru1241 Here's the Varangian image if you're ever going to need it.
I reduced height by 4 pixels, it should be exactly 30px in height.
Honestly, i think it looks dumb now I don't like it being a dwarf.

Re: Varangian Redesign
Reduce canvas to 32 px then i think it will not look so small

Re: Varangian Redesign
I'll make a less armored Varangian later. I still want to redesign the Varangian unit in-game.

Re: Varangian Redesign
Changed Varangian.
I remade the whole stuff so it would differ in appearance if the previous posted Varangian does become the image for the Byzantine Varangian Guard.

Re: Varangian Redesign
It doesn't really look like a dwarf.
On the other hand - it still seems quite big (but I realise pixel-wise it's OK now).
If you think it's looking too dwarfy - maybe removing 1 pixel from torse and adding it to the legs would be good to remove such visual effect.
Let me ask, just to be sure - last image is for varangian redesign, while the one discussed before you accept as more elite varangian guard or similar usage, right?

Yes, last image is for varangian redesign, but the previous one that was discussed will be discarded, or turned to a skin. If elite varangian guard does need an image, i'll try to make one for him. Armored and stuff. It'd look cool i guess.
I edited the image of Varangian again, i saw some mistakes and weird stuff on the body when i came here.
