Mighty steed!

I've started work on making a new horse for my server (Bomy Island) It was kind of hard to make because it's so hard to make a decent looking horse that fits the graal character without the horse looking like it's ten feet talk when the player is standing next to it.

So I drew this from scratch while looking at the default graal horse. I think it turned out okay. I might touch it up here and there. What do you thinK?

Oh, and I plan to make costumes and different saddles and stuff for the horse, and a variety of horses. Like I'll have the skirt things that wrap around the entire horse, and the helmets and iron stuff that jousting horses wear.

Neat.

Nitkizi · #4 09-05-2005, 05:49 PM

Very nice, goes with the Graal character very well. Don't know about the animation itself, the leg movement looks ackward, that could just be me though..

Incredible. <3 Koni.

Crono · #6 09-05-2005, 06:26 PM

Looks nice.

It's more of a donkey than a horse though, in my opinion.

Kinda cute, but I don't like something about the legs ;x
e: got it, they're both moving at the same time.

konidias · #8 09-05-2005, 07:45 PM

Yeah it's more like a pony than a horse but there's only so much I can do without making it not fit the Graal character. =P

The legs move together because I wanted to leave in some aspects of the old horse.

Makes no sense, though. You could have just used the main color from the old horse :P

Zeltino · #10 09-05-2005, 08:41 PM

That's really good =o. I like it. But you should fix the legs. Do what ZH says and just use the colour from the old horses.

Myomoto · #11 09-05-2005, 09:11 PM

Looks kinda chubby :O

Edit: maybe it's head should move a little bit too, other than just up and down with the rest of the body

Zero Hour · #12 09-05-2005, 09:20 PM

It's a sable island pony.

Splke · #13 09-06-2005, 09:15 AM

It's hot.

Scott · #14 09-06-2005, 09:30 AM

****ing awesome. Finally a decent looking horse sprite man. I'm impressed. My only annoyance is with the eyes/head. The Pony is on an angle... but the graal character isn't . Odd.

Splke · #15 09-06-2005, 10:22 AM

Mister Graalian is pulling the Ponies ears. Poor Pony!

Totally disagree. Look at the newb's eye-mouth angle.

The non-existant eye-mouth angle? I'm just saying you can see the horses two eyes, but the graalian's single one.

I noticed that too but didn't bother posting :{

Scott is right though, fix it please.

konidias · #19 09-06-2005, 09:55 PM

It would look dumb if there was only one eye.

edit: or well... what do you think?

Zero Hour · #20 09-06-2005, 10:14 PM

Oh, I thought you meant the angle at which it held it's head horizontally. Hmm... I see.

Nitkizi · #21 09-07-2005, 06:48 AM

Scott, ftw

Looks way better :]

zim5354 · #23 09-07-2005, 02:38 PM

whoa those are nice

petro1212 · #24 09-08-2005, 07:23 AM

The angled edit is indeed better. Anyhow, the horse looks nice it has a nice comic-ish style to it.

But one thing tho, this is about the player. The default head that you recoloured the shading within it should be fid a bit. Talking about the darker line under the hair. It creates the illusion that the head is... shape in a umm very weird way

But again, as usual kick ass graphics

Scott · #25 09-08-2005, 08:06 AM

Right, my edit. I added it to the post above, since I'm a lameo VIP.

xAndrewx · #26 09-08-2005, 09:21 AM

They all look cool.

nullify · #27 09-08-2005, 07:26 PM

They are very nice, although I'd like to see a modified running version with fixed legs.
