[WIP] mishKa's Musketeer Pack

Silver. Gold looks more like a brown. Eugh. I'm starting to get fashion-conscious.

 

Can you smell the gun powder already?
Steady...FIRE!

Thank you Rayne!

Haha thank you!

Wow thanks! I'm trying my best, or whatever suits my own eye, since there's not much pixels details are hard to acquire. Perhaps, 18th century is not too far away anyhow, haha!

Thank you

Yeah, I actually started a sci-fi related texture pack a while ago, we'll see if I dare to continue it.:)

Thanks!

Thank you Thats nice to hear!

Actually thats what I had planned, but since you asked I've added a gif of a doodle I did. It's by no means "final".

Thank you!

This sounds really interesting! I'll try it out later, since I'm a bit tired now haha:)

Thanks

I agree, though the gold one looks better on the red team, but I'll probably recolour it in silver!:) And thanks for the support with your zip file!

 

Very nice canon. The rocks should be grapeshots :p even if it does not fit too much to catapults ;).

 

Thats a good idea! That could work rather well actually!:)

 

By the name of Ho-Lee Schitt, I applaud you. That is wonderful, simply... wonderful.

 

You sexy little beast, MishKa! This is why i'd happily name you as KAG's #1 persons with texture pack persons! :D

 

Firing people out of a cannon - This should be fun.

 

I'll just join the crew and praise you - that is amazing!

 

Update to version 0.3.

Changelog:

• archerMale.png → a Musketeer with a silver rim. ( sprites done )

DOWNLOAD HERE (This does not contain the knight sprites or cannons)

The Musketeer can now hit trees with his magical musket, thus earning him some well needed musket balls.

I have now continued to sprite the knightmale.png and done all the weapon animations so far.

And here's how's the rapier Musketeer will probably end up.

Now, I need some good ideas of how I will do the shield, otherwise I just sprite some kind of a buckler. ( I don't actually know if musketeers used any bucklers/shields, this is not authentic history anyways. :D )

Haha thank you very much!:)

Ooh justi! thank you!

Haha, firing dead people with cannons is always fun.

Wow, thank you!

Thank you very much! It's just a doodle, I'll go back to it when I get the characters done.

 

Oh I wasn't talking about dead people. You can also fire living (not for long) people out of catapults/cannons.

 

I have a question. Which program do you use to make sprite animations (GIF,...) ? Otherwise very nice knight here :) with beautiful and fluid combat animation !

 

I think this would be amazing as a whole texture pack, characters, tiles and so on (as in the theme you have going on here). Your work is amazing keep it up! :)

 

I use paint.net because its very user friendly. Gimp is good for copying but bad for actual editing the sprites.

 

Regarding shielding, nope I don't think they used any shields. Maybe the knight could raise his sword to protect himself?

 

Yes the Rise of The Samurai has the Samurai holding his sword with two hands, and blocking with his sword.

 

You can also make a sort of bombard :p !

 

Oh my god, you are awesome at pixel art! :D
Me jelly.

 

I feel popular X3

MishKa, as always you have the most epic sprites that there could be in this whole forum. You're probably my favorite artist here!

 

Here's a quick overview of what I've been doing since my last post.

• New heads, hats and hairstyles.
• Done some animation sprites of the (knight) musketeer.
• Tweaking of the (archer) musketeer. (misplaced pixels and what not)
• All the classes have now a base head.

Pictures to describe better as I'm bad with words.
1. Beard fella 2. Ponytail fella

3. Tricorn (archer base) 4. Aristocrat fella (Got to powder them all!)

5. Conquistador 6. Leather cap fella (builder base)


PS. Amazing bombard anonymator!, and thank you all for your support!

I've already forgot that you could do that, hah silly me.

Thank you Everything is done with photoshop.

Thank you very much! I don't think I'll fiddle with the tiles too much, since there isn't much of a difference in landscape between medieval and renaissance.:)

Hmm, maybe. I'll have to try out how it will work out! Thanks!:)

Just wow! This is amazing work! The only problem just would be how the rocks are oriented. (in game I mean)

Haha, but you've got an amazing pack yourself! and thank you, you kind sir!
