    Any room for a beta tester? I'm a huge board game nerd, and would love to test your game out, because it looks awesome! If you have any instructions for the game, i'd like to give it a read over, just to provide critique.

    Interesting...I've been itching to do something productive recently...And pixel art is always good fun!
    Inquiry. OP, anything in particular you need right now? I'm assuming the original requests have been created.

    Also, what dimensions are the images to be done in? Taking a look at your card template, I'm assuming it's 212w x 157h?- PX that is.
    And finally, I suggest a few shades lighter for the card borders. Black is often too strong a colour, charcoal will complement the entire image better, I feel. Ensure it's a very dark charcoal colour, of course. Still basically black.

    Good stuff, what is it we'll see? Anything specific you'd like, @Dwarfonix?
    Also, yeah, seems it's 212x157.

    What kind of weird measurement is 212x157? hehe

    It is odd. :p But that's what the dude Dwarfonix has created!
    I do suggest, Dwarf, that you remake your card template at a higher resolution (I could do it, if you like), unless you're looking for it to have pixelated edges.

    Ya thats what im going for

    So, here's a prototype for the Sword of Agony. Wanted to try out some barbed wire that encircles the blade, however, it has the negative aspect of covering up a lot of the detail I worked on.

    Edit: Needs reworked a little bit...The hilt really bothers me. But I felt it should be something that isn't plain and simple.

    Hold on man, I'm editing it a little bit!
    The edges are too dark in places, and the bevel in the centre of the hilt is too messy...I can be a bit of a perfectionist sometimes. :p

    Probably doesn't look a great deal different. :p But, I think it's slightly better.

    I'm making a roguelike based on the dwarves of middle earth and I need an imaged 160 w by 110 h

    The first one being (Note: not a panda, a helmet)
    [​IMG]
    But up scaled with detail to 160by110 this will be the background of the main menu.
    Would be a huge help.

    Thanks for being a legend Mr Octopus :)
