Left to right, top row:
Orc: A melee enemy.
Elite Orc: Mixed fighter, has a mace for melee and flame hatchets for ranged.
Vampire: Got the idea mainly from seeing a vampire monster on Realm667 based on the Bishop and thinking, "Huh, if I was going to make a vampire enemy out of Hexen stuff, I'd totally use the Reiver"
Ghoul/zombie thing. Mainly attempted to make a Heretic golem look more undead and doom-ish with a zombie head.
Necrophage, the big daddy ghoul. I picture this guy letting out one of those poison gas clouds when he dies.
An undead creature made basically on the thought of trying to do a Reiver-like enemy in a Doom style.
It's so nice to see such amazing talent coming from sprite artists who haven't even posted before. :) Please do finish that Necrophage! :D

(He could do with a recolor, though... make his skin a bit paler or something so he's easier to distinguish, color-wise, from the regular Mancubus - I bet they'd look very similar from behind.)

Thanks for the kind words guys. I'm not as good as I could be, drawing something from the ground up the way someone like Eriance does still eludes me, but it's good to know my edits meet approval.

I'll probably handle it this way:
CaptainToenail wrote:Give the big rotting fatso a green tinge and you have a perfect demon of Nurgle :twisted:
I actually came up with him just screwing around with trying to make a de-cybered mancubus, but when I stuck wendigo arms on him and thought "Damn, now I have to remove all that dangling ice stuff" I decided to experimentally try coloring it reddish instead of removing it, and though it looked wonderfully disgusting. I got the "Necrophage" name from this, which he resembles, although I don't picture it working particularly similarly to that monster.

Anyways, I've been encouraged to keep up with the monster edits. Since I figured he'd be the one I'd most likely use with what I'm currently planning, and since he's a pretty easy edit (not even any frankensteining), I've continued with the vampire. Ideally I picture him doing an arch-vile style attack that, if it hits, generates a cheesy "Blood Omen: Legacy of Kain" gout of blood from the victim to his mouth and gives him health. Not sure if that can be DECORATEd though.

I've also come up with a few more "Ravenish" creatures since I'm planning to work with Heretic stuff. These two are prototype frames that I'll probably redo if I complete the monsters, since they're a bit rough around the edges.

Guy on the left was actually inspired by Zelda 2's Horsehead boss, when I'd been thinking of something entirely different. I'd had in mind to make a Lava Wyrm (i.e. a dragon head that pops out of the lava like a Hexen Stalker or Quake Cthon), and remembered that Zelda 2 had a boss like that (called Barba apparently). I ended up looking at a YouTube video of all the bosses from the game, and got as far as the first one when thinking "Oh yeah, I forgot about that guy" followed by "OOH I KNOW THAT MACE" He's a pretty loose interpretation, and it's questionable how much his face resembles a horse's, but the more I look at this guy, the more I like him. Just have to fix up his muscles nicer and do a cleaner process instead of the experimenting one. The guy on the right is a Centigor. Well, I'm not sure how much he really is a Centigor, since I'm not that well-versed on Warhammer stuff, but I know they call their Centaur/Satyr hybrid that. This one needs redoing too, to make him a bit less dark and make sure the skin blends together properly.

Finally, one I'm really pleased with, since it's a beginning for the one monster I've long thought would be an awesome addition to a Heretic/Hexen style bestiary. I'm actually surprised that no one attempted this one before (unless someone did and I missed it).
Without further ado, here is the Chaos Wyvern:

Aww, he's cute! :lol:

I like. For "mere edits" you capture blending and matching very well. (And I didn't even recognize the Wendigo arms, that's a darn good job!)

I really like that Baron-Centaur combo.
Also loving Chaos Wyvern. At least its head doesn't look like a big brown duck bill. :D

The orcs' boots are their weak point, far too evocative of the HWD.

The chaos wyvern needs a full sprite set; though it might benefit from having a bit more flesh on its bones -- the death wyvern being a lich, it is unnaturally thin.

Some bullet boxes from a mod I'm working on. I still have the PSD so if someone wants other calibers I could help.
