    The file contains both blue and red viking knight skins with gibs, with all their glorious beards, horned helmets and axes. Builder comes next. I'm also planning the change of flags, tents and outposts.

    Done list:
    Viking Warrior (Knight skin)
    Viking Bowmaster (Archer skin)

    Todo list:
    Worker
    Tents
    Outposts
    Flags

    Updated for the last KAG build 190

    PS: Sorry for absence of actual ingame screenshots. The screenshot function don't work for me.

    Fantastic job. Definitely some of the best sprite work we've seen in KAG reskins.

    I'm with Contrary. Those really look complementary to the rest of the game, and really smooth!

    Also, you might want to PM (Conversations are what they're called here, I believe) somebody if you've got specific things you wanna show.

    P.S. I could do it :D

    Yep, that last sprite is for the sword thrust. So I have tried to make it looking bit like a slash (the axe has some perspective deformation in this sprite). If anyone got a better and executeable idea, I'm willing to try.

    Archer's head is getting om nom'd by a wolf, hah!
    Anyways, i must ask, is it better to black bold the sprites or should it be darker consecutive colors that should be darkened and used for the sprite bolding?

    It depends on the part where you will use it. I'm using darker shades as a sprite bolding in the places where I can't do too much with in example 3x3 pixels square. But sometimes it doesn't go well like the wolf head ears. They look quite good on the picture but ingame they looked kinda awkward so I had to remake them. The version in a package is a bit different from the sample picture.

    Just played with this, awesome work.

    Was also thinking this danish flag might be of interest to you:

    Ravens were symbols of Odin, and while this particular flag design was of the Danes you could easily switch the symbol to that of the other Norse peoples, such as Norwegians.

    For example this is a Norse dragon design:

    You COULD also switch the tent for a traditional Viking Long-house, might be a bit of work but you would only have to do the entrance! This would give you a chance to put shields and flags on it and such as these:

    I haven't touch anything yet. I have some ideas to do and pixels to fix but I'm at some kind of art block.

    +I have new skin WIP but not yet unpublished.
