Re: My images ;)
It's hard to imagine what does the last image present when you look at it first time. But it's everything I want to suggest. Your sprites are very good.

Re: My images ;)
I think you draw human fighters very well.
Your Golem(?) image from the last lot was ok, but I wonder about your choice of colours.
I found your somewhat dull brown contrasted with your very bright green. It made it hard for me to see what was going on in your image.
Often people suggest more/different shading to make the unit look less 'flat' in this case I think it would be a good idea because it would make the unit look more like a whole than some bright and some dull parts togther in the same place at the same time. If it is a Golem, that might be an effect you were looking to create because it could be made of seperate things put together. But I still think that giving it a bit more shadow and some darker areas would help it a little.
As I said, your graphics are great though, keep doing what you do I just thought I'd suggest something with that one.
PS: I'm taking a few of your units to frank together becasue I want to update my Fey faction from an era. If I ever get it all together and release it, I'll put your name in the credits (as well as 1/2 the forum ) for supplying frankenparts - in your case I may only make a few small changes to some of the sprites. I'll probalby post the new images, tell me if you think they are too close to your originals.

Re: My images ;)
The unit looks very good, but there's something a bit strange with the portrait's expression.
If presented with the opportunity, I would take great pleasure in becoming a world ruler.

Świetna jednostka, jak długo bawisz się w pixelartem i ile czasu potrzebujesz na taką jedną jednostkę?
Re: My images ;)
The portrait is very good. My suggestions:
1) the shading of his armor needs an improvement
2) the wings are too dark
I dislike the unit's image
EEaW's winged hussars look much better:

Sprite has a few problems:maksiu wrote:Hello, I would like to present to you to the my Polish hussar
1. Horse's anatomy looks like the one of a dachshund.
2. Wings appear to be attached to the side of the rider.
3. Rider looks like he began to dismount the horse.
4. Various banding and palette problems, like the back wing reads badly (desaturating it and adding shadow would solve the problem) or the sword outline being inconsistent and too contrast.

Re: My images ;)
Ok, here's my thoughts.
I don't have anything to say on the portrait but don't take it that Im's saying something by not saying anyting . I'll tell you what I think about the little guy you drew under the portrait then.
I think he looks really great, he could be a lv 3+ unit, definatly not something which you start the game with. I agree with others about colour, your choice of colour is too saturated and too dramatic, I also agree that the horse looks good but too small to hold that amount of armor and guy up let alone run. Draw the sort of horse which makes people ask "hey! is that a horse or a bloody elephant?!" then put that epic guy on top of it. Keep the horse you drew for something else.
-that's just my 2c worth.

Re: My images ;)
The minotaurs look amazing, especially the black ones. The only criticism I have of them is that it's a bit hard to see their eyes.
Re: My images ;)
I love the centaurs

Re: My images ;)
Wow. really great. Maybe you could upload a .zip file or so to make it easier to download and use your pictures?
Re: My images ;)
