You could always buy some really cheap crt to use for finishing images and link it to your laptop when necessary...pekka wrote: My laptop's monitor is unfortunately too sharp and too bright for drawing finishing pictures easily. Thats the reason why the keep/castle also took so long to finish..
And, all of those new attack icons look terrific. If they're coming this fast at this level of quality, it won't take long until the interface really looks great.
I've got the same problem , you can maybe try to incline your screen a lot, sometimes it helps me when I work with very low opacity. Don't know if it will help...My laptop's monitor is unfortunately too sharp and too bright for drawing finishing pictures easily. Thats the reason why the keep/castle also took so long to finish.. Sad
But I would suppose the laptop has one, since it's so bright.frame wrote:I can't quite see how buying a cheap and then probably quite low-quality monitor would help much, I would rather say he needs a high-quality LCD monitor.Ankka wrote: You could always buy some really cheap crt to use for finishing images and link it to your laptop when necessary...
Well, yeah, on second thought I'm not sure really... I have heard people say CRT's are better for photograph editing. IMHO a good LCD is a lot better though, for about anything.
Is the plan to not put these in-game until we have a complete set?

Gee...our artists, particularly Jetryl, never cease to amaze me in their ability to take something that I think is already perfectly 'fine' and progress it to being outstanding.
Great work. I'm fine with these going into SVN as soon as someone wants to commit them.

I've done some sketches of bow icon, which has an arrow ready to be shoot and part of a hand. The angle is same as with the another weapon icons. Anatomically I'm quite satisfied of it. Unfortunately I can't send it now, because it is in my laptop.
It differs a lot from the Jetryl's bow composition, but has the same angle as the other weapon icons. Maybe we should compare these bow icons and compose the best possible version before continuing?
EDIT: Aww, Jetryl... you messed my engravings from the battle axe.
Leonhard, the mace is brilliant!

Sounds a good idea to me.Elvish Pillager wrote:Flip the weapon images horizantally of the unit on the right of the attack dialog.
If all icons are made for the left player, i'll make sure the engine flips the icons on the right.
PS :
I would really love a Shield attack icon.
It is not used by standard units but a few contributed units use this :
- some Lavinian units (Roman style units with a tower shield)
- the Assault Commander in the South Guard Campaign
- a few units in the faction i'm slowly making (Amazons guards, with a large tower shield too)
- probably others
