    Heya, this is ColdOneK, and I got carried away with a joke over at the Player Resources Topic in fan art
    So it's about time to turn this into a full thread.

    I dig Warhammer and 40k, and so when I saw that someone released a base sprite of the Starbound characters I ran with it lol.

    Click to Reveal, I've gotten every sprite from the thread.

    Frankly right now, the only one that uses the Starbound char as a direct base,
    is the space marine, the rest just use him as a size aid.
    Edit: The characters that are made using the direct starbound char base, are of average height.
    The Space Marines were shrunk to average height from roughly 7-8 heads tall.
    Everything else is roughly to size. Scale was determined through dawn of war - spacemarine, and miniature reference.
    So other then the space marines being 1 head shorter then they should be, everything else is roughly scaled appropriately.

    So yeah... =p

    Edit: how do you do the (show/hide stuff), so I can organize this post a bit better lol

    Edit 2: If not already obvious, I plan to edit all sprites in the thread to this post, so people don't have to search if it starts to get pretty long.

    Edit 3: I do them in ultramarine style, because ultramarines have a simple color palette that is pleasant to look at when making them, and it's easy to come back later and recolor - - Black Templar are B&W lol

    I've done a bunch of them, since I made a space marine joke at the people who were making custom health bars roughly 2days ago?
    "Ultramarine is unamused at your puny healthbars..." or something lol
