Bel'la Olplyn GFX'n

[Draenin]

I took a whack at recoloring the shield to the colors I was talking about.

I wish that cloaks / robes / etc had gfx on GK. Those would be a bit more fitting to the Drow.

Also... I dunno why so many kingdoms think that plate is 'the ****.' (Self-Edit. Whee.) I see nothing wrong with using chain mail or otherwise, especially if your kingdom's primary race is known for using it. Draxx made plate for Forest, and once again, I was just thinking to myself, "Why? Chain would work out so much better, and would be a lot cooler, as well." In my opinion, the most suitable armor for each kingdom would be:

Bel'la Olplyn - Robes, Cloaks, Chainmail, other light armor.
Forest - Same as above.
Dustari - Plate Mail
Crescent Pirates - Vests, Coats, Jackets, etc. (Not in existence, but wouldn't be hard to implement once robes actually had gfx.)
Samurai - Tousei-Gosoku, (http://www.kozando.co.jp/catarog/busho/n_kansuke.jpg) Kabuto (The helmet.)

Since people are deciding to do some graphics.

Somebody please for the love of God redo the platemail of Power graphics. It's teal. TEAL.

*glitches it to be invisible*

There's a difference between a jagged blade, and a piece of scrap metal with a handle. If you managed to actually cut anyone with that, you'd have a hell of a time pulling it out again. Not exactly fitting for a quick battle weapon like a sword.

Arrows are barbed because they are meant to stay in the person. Swords are not, unless you're going to carry around disposable swords. >.>

Go away. This thread is all about the graphics, not about you starting things. The fact remains is that the graphics he commented on are simply recolors, which means that they're not awesome. It's not jealousy, it's making a point that they would be much better if they were something new, and not recolored versions of current graphics.

Now, Andy, in case you can't grasp that in paragraph form (which you seem to show elsewhere):

Recolors = Bad, no matter how "well" they're recolored.
Quality New Graphics = Awesome.

Instead of a jagged sword, try a jagged hilt. Drows are all 'bout spiders 'n' stuff, so guess what you could have on the hilt? ;] The blade should really be normal, since drows don't really use any unusual kind of sword, apart from maybe dual scimitars, which wouldn't be possible anyway.

Well, I don't know if other people like having a teal platemail, so I'll keep quiet until other people insert their opinions.

[Debaglio]

The jagged blade, is pretty long. I like the colors, maybe shorten it a bit and add a spider to the hilt.

The robe/armor idea is one that I have wanted to see for a while now.

Still looking for the helmet from hell. Evil Helmets!

[Draenin]

The robe would probably have to have a substantial amount of AC, considering the fact that it covers the head. In this fashion, a helmet could be unwearable, but made up for by the robe's added AC / Stats.

The jaggedness of the blade needs to be worked on. The blade looks very lopsided, and almost like torn paper. Consider stuff on the following page for designs. (Googled results ftw. ;])

I am flabberghasted.

The orb is larger on the side than it is on the front, see also many other errors.

Shut up! It looked good on the white background on MS Paint, and I had like... 50 other armours to recolor/add detail too! :P
e: Also, I did recolor it before, I made a super-hot black armour, was VERY sexy... dunno where it is now, I just know they didn't update the images

[Draenin]

I added a little eye to the shield. Haven't fixed the orb sizing yet, though. The problem is that the front view of it has a narrower orb, while the left and right views have a wider one. My best suggestion would probably be to widen the eye area out and to make sure that both width and height on the circle are the same diameter in terms of pixels.

You've just started something with the statement 'Go away.'
I think they're good, most of GK is re-coloured. It's better then no graphic at all.
Nah, I got it fine. It's Stryker who doesn't understand paragraphs.

Hah. Recolors should only be used when people are pressed for time. And in this case, we're not. So be quiet and let us put in some constructive criticism instead of dismissing the gfx as being perfect because, believe me, they are far from it. It's better to improve something rather than leaving it in its original state. It applies to writing, music, art, etc. and it applies here as well.
