on bone armor and helms, I think it needs a redesign. for example, IRL bone armor wasn't an entire plate made out of bone but multiple bones tied together there I shall list some similar designs that I suggest be used as reference material in a redesign. :

now... for the artifact vers. you can on helms just add a bit of a more complex design with either feather pompons or crests and for the armors, you can make them into scale bone armor like so: https://i.gyazo.com/a25365caad78577edf969c363c0b7c30.png

also for goblins you could try something a bit more... dark themed but without adding human skulls in there (would be funny for a human scull to be in a bone armor made out of bear bone)

also, it would be nice to have some more feathers that have a random color in them or pompoms or more types of tusks in the helms

example of a different tusk design that can be used to add verity: https://i.gyazo.com/e36e765c758a23697a41265d38fc6506.png

not saying that the current one should be replaced. more like each helm should have variations upon creation. i am unsure though if that is possible so i won't go in length on this.

next time I mess around with helmet graphics I will look into it, I doubt that I could make an accurate bone helm look right with so few pixels though, maybe it's possible for dwarves since their heads are big.

would this mod be compatible with twohanded weapons mod or genesis 2 mod?
Nautilus  [developer] 19 Dec, 2022 @ 5:29pm 
definitely not genesis, but I think it is compatible with the one that adds 2 handed weapons

here some examples of bone helms in pixel art format https://i.gyazo.com/8facd04234bfe5fffc20e117dac61a89.png
you can see that you can make it so the bands and the bone <<scales >> are easy to make out :)
color accurate divine metals? or is that too large in scope
my divine metal factory keeps spiting out this iron looking stuff :c
Nautilus  [developer] 2 Mar, 2023 @ 1:06pm 
well I don't think color accurate divine metals or dyed clothing is currently possible, but units wearing divine metal items have those items colored light gold with a slight glow. I don't know how the items or metal bars look before they are put on though.

Would you be willing to add War-Picks?
They'd be a dwarven weapon that uses the Warhammer skill.

Is there any reason not to give them regular picks? In my experience they are very deadly in the hands of a skilled miner.

Any plans on graphics for the man creatures? Like snake men, wolf men, ect

Not currently, doing good layered graphics for hundreds of animal people would take me thousands of hours of unpaid tedious labor.
