looks good.

just remember they should be light gray/white for the coloring to work properly.

random practice sketches of things I suck at

So, I'm trying to replicate the diskworld trolls, basically a humanoid made fully of stone.

I want all tissues other than teeth to be stone, and the teeth should be diamond.

what's the best way to do this?

in my experience, forgotten beasts are either weaksause, or unkillable.

this was a response to the lightning, but it still beats the kite, I think.

and it beats teh lightning pic because I took this one.

While reorganizing my WIP Graphics folder, I found an old concept. The idea, without regard for what is currently possible with DFHack, was for icons that would display over units (perhaps while holding down a button, or whatnot), that described any status effects they might have:


Row 1: Happiness Icons (Ecstatic, Happy, Quite Content, Fine, Unhappy, Very Unhappy, and Miserable)
Row 2: Thirsty, Hungry, Stunned, Paralyzed, On Fire, Drowning, and Webbed
Row 3: Minor Injury, Major Injury, Asleep, Unconscious, and Moods (Melencholy, Strange, and Berserk)

I also found a few colorized stone tiles, which are redundant now... but the pallets might be worth borrowing for the automatic tile colorization. Also, there were a few alternate Stone textures I want to touch up prior to posting.

like this?


I can't show all of them yet, but happiness, sleeping, resting, and moods are doable.
unfortunately, I don't actually know which mood is what, so I can't set specific icons for specific moods till I see em, so if anybody has a save with a mood in progress, that'd be great.

I'm seeing an elephant, a dwarf, a mule, a cat, and the dwarf's head.

is that correct?

wow, you're scottish

yes, yes he is.
