Do you reckon his displacer beast is too podgy, Vedalken? Greedy displacer beast!

It's interesting that you made a graphic using the ghost cat as a base, because I just did exactly the same thing for Jomon Broken. The Black Nekoni had been using the ghost cat graphic, but I decided to give it a new and more dinstinctive one. It took me about 5 minutes total, including extracting the sprite :]

A pic is attached - it also features the new Neko Maiden graphic, which I made by extracting a pic from a Jomon female of some sort. Note the red tail and cat ears. Much more distinctive. This also took about 3-5 minutes. Under the old method I wouldn't have even bothered it would have taken so much longer.

Are they tails that it has two of?

Sure are. Is that not clear enough? I could redraw 'em.

They look like they have suckers or something on the end of them. Well, I might just be going mad. I think what it is is they get a bit wider at the end, and have a funny texture there as well.

That's just what the vanilla sprite's tail looks like. Not my work at all -shrug-

But I can change it for next version no problem.

Yes I thought they were DnD Displacer Beasts. They look like them. Cats with two octopus-style tentacles. They would be fighters with glamour.

I like your graphic, I think the tales looked fine. The first time I saw the ghost cat in the all unit view, I thought "Oh wow, I gotta make a displacer beast out of this guy."

As gandalf was saying, I plan to slap glamour on the sucker when I implement it in game. I have no mods that need the unit currently, but I had to make it

Here is another one I did late last night. Rohan Banner Carrier. I used bits and pieces from some of my other units and used the Van Hero as the base unit.

Foodstamp can't be stopped! He's a graphic making fool now!

Very nice work. So when's the Lord of the Rings mod coming out?

Just kidding....or am I?
