bravo on this thread so far!
hopefully the broken veterans will pick up the endless fight for fps once again after this new commando has finished his year.

i love it. I use r15x18 for twbt and r11 as main font

I dont know whether thats a good way but I like the faces most. A modern version of Lord Nightmare Cherry IBM 8x8.

Life Advice / And I always wondered where the bad people were in my life.
« on: December 19, 2018, 11:44:25 am »
Turns out at home.
I knew dad was a pathetic man that tortured us if he didn't get his will until he got it and then some.
But mom playing the good cop was the one who damaged me.

I tried to help them all my life. Being in the dad role listening to their ever repeating crap until they stab me in the back again in a verbal abuse session of 3 hours at the end of which I was so tired that I just agreed.
Until last time. They were at it again but this time the image of mom I needed to survive my youth was gone and all I saw was this sick machinery designed to regularly hurt me as if to prove to the man that he prevails. Even if his perceived enemy is his son.

I left thereafter and although my parents are GPs I've had stomachproblems from 11 onwards.
Turns out I got a parasite. I had one at least from 11. Since then I could barely move on a day once home.
But like soldiers like goddman undead dwarfs we were lined up again and again. But when they got drunk in the evening and then watched television that was ok, but I was the computer addict they despised for derailing family happiness.
Until bro started being mean like them and I was alone.

They hurt me on purpose the entire time. My parents are psychopaths and I barely survived the thing.
The parasite still has me puking when the time for reinfestation has come.

They neglected me and I almost died from it. And I just couldn't let go until I knew it was never going to change. It has always been them against me, just my mother can act caringly when she's just telling you lies.

I got a good psych, got financial independence, they still threaten me to get back in contact but some old part of me seems to wake up now that I banished the danger that could ocme and hurt massively at any point on a day. If there was no reason he'd think of one.

My whole life has really been a nightmare. That is a relief. I'm a nice boooy. and i wan't to feel love. And I couldn't even get close before I met enough women like mother to understand the thing I already knew in my teens.

It made me so depressed. It drove me mad.
And bro too. He's a tool now to a chinese woman that is pure anger and to him that's the world. He just keeps criticizing me for being the reason of familial hostility. My dad just pinned the thing on me and through his constant intimidation they unknowingly or not , slowly started to swallow it.

He hurts me to be safer with dad and that's so sad bro..

So yeah.

TL;DR:
Life was fucked. Now I know not me not life was fucked, just my parents are psychopaths and the reason that I ever ended up sighing..

I'm at the start of my life, my fair life

24x24 version of the tileset



looks amazing, so well defined. I'm used to square tiles by now but I wonder whether I'm missing out on the nonsquare. Do you have a reason why you prefer it?
Anyway thanks for the tileset!

ooh cool. thanks! ill look that function up. I've been trying drop shadows and light source and it was just awful

OK cool I almost forgot I had already posted this.

The thing is the 12x12 version and the 16x16 version are different from the 7x7. The dwarfs look chinese and the font is not the fat movie title style that makes the 7x7 so cool. In the 7x7 however the dwarfs have this empty look in their face that makes me feel bad. I want them to belook happy when they die in the most awful fun way. I had my first siege yesterday. My people died picking up equipment :(. "The goblin strikes **** in the head with his pike and the part explodes in gore"

Ok since I see that the general consensus seems to be go for it despite the fact that the artist has the right to object. If he does so I'm fine if I take it down I assume.
It's a beginners work but if you have any advice for improvement let me hear it pls. I'm also a fan of the CGA thin tileset. I like cheepicos tileset but there again the dwarfs look not happy.

Here is how it looks so far. I couldn't for the life of me not figure out how to recreate the shading after the transition. The inspiration for the faces are part cgi, cheepico, and herbbdog ofc.

The font just makes me smile.

I got this

I'm not quite happy with the dwarfery but I like how it turned out otherwise.

Originally this thread was about copyrights among df tileset creators. My question was whether I had to ask the artist before modifying his work
