Yep, it was done freehand with tablet + OpenCanvas in ~1-2 hours.
I'd gotten it in my head to draw a cave swallowman recently, because they're so...different. That and hybrids are one of my favourite things to draw, though he didn't end up too humanoid.

I'm really happy with how it turned out, though.

Also, you could design cooling systems so that warm air rises through the cavern roof and cool air is pulled down through inhabited areas. The walls should hopefully keep radiant heat out. The windows would have constant air circulation flowing out through them.
All in all, its THEORETICALLY possible.

The dude standing by the lava is obliviously a wizard.

Screw reality, it's DF!

This.

Also, the cave swallowman is in a word, awesome.

Correction: "Life in a word is Cave-swalloman."

Depending where this cave is the cooling could be done by water that runs throught the pillars and the building. Pumped back upwards it could heat glacier/tundra fort enought for farming.

Bit of testing, kind of a mess.

Really waiting for those new underground features.

This owns.

I am really amazed. Good job...I gotta say, that we have some very talented people on this forum.

My wife doodled this in Photoshop today.



Your standard dwarven pet horse, covered in blood, mud and vomit.

[Creamcorn]

Not enough blood, than again the horse could have recently been caught in a flood lately.

That cave swallow is very nicely done. It made me feel like doing something of a slightly similar style.


Despite my relatively poor grasp of how light interacts with objects, I'm actually pleased with how this turned out.

PS: I seem to have made it fairly small, so I blew it up by 3x.

Blewing it up was lucky. It looks GREAT and pixelating gives it more DF look.

Heh, that's one of the reasons I chose Nearest Neighbour instead of the default enlargement setting. It reminded me of the way early 90's games looked with their low resolutions on large screens.

And I added the smiley face because it's unambiguously Dwarf Fortressy. And because I'm a filthy plagiarist who liked Three Panel Soul's idea.
