The new texture thread

I am much impressed.
:clap::clap::clap:

 

Thanks everyone. i'm glad you like my work. i'll pm Nerik and link him to this thread to see wether he wants to make any new creatures at the moment. also if any other modder needs anything please don't hesitate to ask.
My next project is the pseudo dragon... any info on the looks (esspecially color) of that creature would be much appreciated.

 

according to my quick search, the pseudo dragon is mainly a small dragon that may have Blue, Grey, Green, or White color... i am not sure how valid is this information, but i'll try making blue and grey pseudo dragons as the green dragon can be shrinked into pseudo dragon and ice lizard can be shrinked into the other version. but if anyone has other valuble info to offer about these creatures please tell me.

 

I actually think pseudodragons are supposed to be a brownish color, but I'll double-check my MM when I get home.

 

They are "reddish brown" as a base color. The description gives them the ability to hide most excellently through a chameleonlike color alteration of the scales, but that is waaaay beyond the sophistication level of the interface we're dealing with... so just make the model kind of a dark brick-type shade and it'll be all good.

ok so be it then since i haven't actually begun yet... now i will. also, look forward to see a leonal soon (a humanoid lion) based on hogoblin, my first assignment from Nerik

 

Pseudo Dragon

Done, here you go:

 

don't worry about the size... it can be shrinked further later. i posted it this way for you be able to see it's features more closely and clearly... so what do you think?

 

Black Dragon

I thought i might give this a quick try and it worked easly... a Black Dragon...

 

Once again awesome work! :thumbsup: I see a world fiiled with an endless variety of dragons.

:memo to self" check on availability and priceing of flameproof suits and shoulder fired SAMs.

Cuchulainn.

 

thanks a lot, and by the way what you just said about flameproof suits just gave me an idea: make dragons attack with ranged fire breath, as if they were using flaming longbow, or have them use scroching ray or produce flame (at higher levels of damage, of course...) would be cool...

 

Wouldn't it be more appropriate to use a burning hands type approach?

Awesome work BTW.

 

In fact both are cool... if a dragon can form fire, then it should be able to manipulate it the way it likes: burning hands is like 'scroch everything in sight:flamed:' and the others are like forming a little fire ball and spitting it to sort of explode on a single target and you watch him burn a few seconds after (like all other flaming weapons do...) Dragons are indeed mighty creatures, so we can give lots of appropriatly varied spells and attacks according to their tipes like claw, bite, fire breath, poison sting(for the little pseudo dragons)...

 

The dragons look great.

Sorry to play rules lawyer, but dragons shouldn't be breathing assorted little spell effects. They should be putting out a cone or line, depending on the dragon, of the appropriate energy type. I think folks would be disappointed with dragons that don't look like dragons.
