Some static unit bases for now (i ended up changing the feet, hopefully they look better now):
One pose without weapons, with weapons and in battle stance.
Tried to make the armour/appearance look less bland, only managed to work out the style for one faction/group so far, tried going for a greek/roman/byzantine sort of look.
I'm sure i've messed up the chain-mail, but i was unsure of how to show it without resorting to dithering.
Reference for the sort of style that i am trying to depict:
Also, im trying to do an idle animation, here's what i've got:
With weapon and shield:
It's boring i know, im not sure how to make it look interesting/less stock.
I'm limiting the size of the animation to 32X32 to fit the tiles i have made for a map, although it is okay if the black outline goes beyond the size limit.
Is it currently serviceable? Any ideas on how i can improve it? I've been looking at other idle animations but im not sure how i can make anything close to them whilst remaining under/in the size limit.
