Okay, so I'm currently working on a mod (plz check it out here), and I need some more ideas for the ship pet sprites... Adorable tiny saurian reptiles that can vary extremely in design. Kinda like micro-sized T-Rexi. And then I decided, since they can vary in design so much, why don't I see what other people come up with! So that's what this thread is for! To see what kind of adorable little dino monsters people can come up with! All you have to do, is draw one, and post along with a name for the type, and possibly some info. The typical Dlisq is about 1-2 feet in height, with digitigrade feet, two fore-claws (with three claws, one opposable), and a tail for counter-balancing. Their posture is typically dipped like seen here, while a straightening out for running. However, these Dlisq typically tend to use their powerful legs to hop very quickly with much control, and look very adorable when doing so. Their diet is mostly carnivorous, though they will occasionally chew on grains and plants. However, this is just what the typical pet Dlisq looks like... Yours can look totally different! Jus know that if I really like the design and end up implementing it as a pet, I may end up changing it to better work with the sprites. Since this is my mod, these Dlisq are mostly found on the planet Treiach, which is actually pretty similar to earth in climate, and possesses many of the different biomes found here... However, I'm giving everyone creative reign on this, so go wild! By @Crossfang! These little rascals are more nocturnal, and are often found in the more rocky terrain of the mountains, highlands, rock plains, and plateaus. They hunt using pack ambush tactics and are vicious killers, using their huge jaws to crush bones with incredible ease... Often killing one prey at a time without alerting the others. by @Machofish A critical hit! By @rhomboid introducing the frilled dlisq, who inhabit the forested areas of savanna areas. they're quite small, and while carnivorous, use their frills to scare off larger predators.
I'll be making some! Also, I'm curious to see the sprites of this creatures.. if some of them will be added to your mod.
Once I get back home on Sunday, ill add the nighthawk Dlisq. I'll also be adding the sprite sheet to the references if anyone wants to modify it directly.
Okay I know I have no right to speak since I have 0 drawing skills but just an idea, What about a Dlisq that is feathered like a small raptor?
I was going for that idea too. But mine is a combo of feather and scales. I mentioned about this idea on my thread a while ago. xD
Lol sorry for stealing ideas, that's about all I got idea wise, I'm a fool for dinosaurs and my minds going blank on the closest thing to one...
Okay good......please dont give me the plague.. Oh my god....autocorrect removed the don't in that bit....THAT would have been awkward..
I got started before I read the entire post. I didn't realize that the Dlisq art was intended for mod/concept development, so I kinda got carried away and sketched out a short comic already. Oops. Am I allowed to post it here anyways? I'll just move it to my own thread if you want to keep the focus on developing sprites and concept art.
Of course! It doesn't have to be for the mod, though just know that posting it here means I can use your design if I like it. With credit of course!
Ah, magnificent! I hope you'll get a smile out of this, then: A critical hit! (Does it seem like I have a deranged sense of humour? I'm starting to think so.)
Hah! That's excellent! Though had I drawn a comic with a similar premise, those two would be begging for death... At that point, then it can be considered deranged... Right now, it's hilarious... Castration by Dlisq w/ clioskvi (a sports stick) will now be a canonical codex...
introducing the frilled dlisq, who inhabit the forested areas of savanna areas. they're quite small, and while carnivorous, use their frills to scare off larger predators. (creativity amirite)
Hah! I love frilled lizards! I'll add it to the OP when I'm not bedridden... --- Post updated --- The Nighthawk dlisq have been officially added to the sallok mod! Sneaky bugger...
