Empress of Light: Redetailed

Description
Short description (tl;dr)
A respriting project for the Empress of Light that aims to increase the level of detail and make her appearance less ridiculous (We all know that smug face -v-), yet at the same time stay true to the vanilla look.



Now, if you're slightly more interested about this little project of mine, I shall tell you more x)

Why?
The main reason I made this is because I always felt that the original design of EoL was kinda odd for a hallowed being of light and magic, with these bulky arms that ended with three claws, a suit that doesn't seem really comfortable if the blue part is made of solid crystal, and, well, the face. Just why would you make her face look like -v- ?

The only resource pack that I know of that fixes these issues is Foundry & Alchemy, which I like a lot. Their version of EoL looks majestic and beautiful. Check it out!

However, I also wanted to try and fix these issues while keeping the vanilla look of the Empress.
So I did. And had some practice by doing so :)

Changes made
  • Replaced the "smug face" with a more normal-looking one.
  • Also a new face expression for the 2nd phase. (Inspired by Foundry & Alchemy)
  • Increased level of detail for the dress, making it more intricate.
  • New suit. I tried to make it more clear that her body is not only covered by blue crystallic things, not sure how well it turned out. I may change its color in the future to make it more distinguishable.
  • Tentacles (2nd phase) are now replaced with floating crystals. Experimental, let me know what do you think about this change.
  • Made arms smaller and more "elegant", with more fingers.
  • Legs are slightly adjusted as well.
  • Top and bottom parts of the wings are now moving a bit asynchronously to make them feel more like real wings.
  • Tweaked wings item animation in a similar way.
  • Other small adjustments.

Song name?
Neurotech - Seraphic Symphony. I think it goes really great with EoL because it is both energetic and has that "magic of light" feel. Slightly edited it for myself to remove long pauses and add more action while fighting the boss.

Check out his music here[neurotech.bandcamp.com]!




Hope this will come in handy to somebody!

Her dress is actually the same sprite as her body.
Her body sprite is NPC_636

Hey just a quick question. Im trying to create my own resource pack but i am having trouble trying to find the file fore her hands, dress, wings, and projectiles. It says that you improved the dress so I was wondering where you found them in the files. Thanks!

Is there any copyright issue with music when I do YouTube?

I thought it sounds cool, but decided against integrating it into the pack itself so people wouldn't have to use it if they want just the sprites.
