Same here, especially because plague doctors are real!

How about more relatives of the humble Crundle? Y'know, red, small, with claws.

And another. I'm not sure if I like the shading on these ones yet, but I'll suspend judgement for now.

You can surely show your Gecko, their sprites are cute and cool. And don't ask for a permission from now on, I won't say "no" in any case :).

And may I use your Illbloom sprite for venus mantrap plant? It needs green flower but I will make it easily. I love the design.

Be my guest! Modify it however you'd like :-)

As a general rule, anyone is welcome to use any of my sprites for anything (and/or to modify them in any way they want) Just remember to credit me if possible.

And a note on requests. I'll never post a sprite someone specifically asks for in my thread without their permission (though I encourage people to share the love in case other DF modders can also make use of it).


As for said Gecko sprite:

Geckos (Adult and child)

Awesome sprites, Nix.  Its tempting to replace the kobold sprites with the Catti. ;)

Also, assuming these are meant to be used for DF, you could make the flower petals grey-scale so selecting the color using the color settings in the raws would set the flower color (assuming I'm guessing correctly how to do the color magic Ironhand (was it Ironhand?) started).

This makes it more tempting to try my hand at some sprites ... especially with the posts about future versions of the game recently.  8)

Good suggestion! I'd thought about doing my sprites in greyscale, but still don't know the specifics of the system for colouring them in the raws. I'll look it up and may redo the flower sprites accordingly :-)

And a couple magic users for those out there who enjoy them! I know Toady's not keen on magic in DF, but I know there are a few mods that add in magic using enemies for the sake of an added challenge: giving goblins dragonfire or the ability to spit syndrome, etc. These are intended for similar use.

Search out Ironhand's "Tile Magic" thread, but if you have any questions, I just spent weeks working out that stuff :D

Necromancer is awesome!

I'm tooling around with an idea for adding some m0re races to the game. First off was orks (and then eventually the combined greenskin armies :D). Mainly because I liked playing my greenskin shaman in Warhammer Online way back in beta. But therein lies the problem.

The few orc sprite sheets I've found... well... they don't really mesh well with Ironhand's graphics set. It's entirely possible I've just missed one that does, but for the most part, they don't really fit with the rest of the set. So, if you the time or the will, a set of graphics for the orcs would be amazingly helpful. Not just for my orks, but for anyone else who wants big, mean, and green brutes to beat up their dwarves.

That request aside, I'm very impressed. I've tried (and failed horribly) at making my own sprites and pixel arts, so I have at least a little bit of an idea how much of a pain it can be, haha.

Regardless of what I said previously, DF elves don't chop. They merely coax the wood out of a tree in a manner which is probably sexual. So yes, they are terrible, terrible beings.

I've been a little busy amping up for school lately, but I finally have a couple new ones for you:

I'll see what I can do about some orcs, though they may be like the Catti: a basic graphics set rather than a fully comprehensive, playable one.

May I request some sprites for Squeegy's Succubus/Incubus mod? Would really love to have something fitting for them and your sprites rock.
