What I'm going to do with Dungeon:

Core:

Beholder (instead of Stalker, cuz shooter)
Spider   (instead of Assasin, cuz melee)
Troglodyte (some changes at the upg)

Elite:

Griffin
Medusa
Minotaur

Champion:
tough probably some changes at black dragon
hydra is ok


Griffins in Dungeon? Now there's an interesting twist. A step away from Ashanian lore (which in itself is also a step away from the lore of previous games) and back to the Warlock faction of H1 and 2. I wonder, though: will you recolor the Griffins? The Dungeon faction is an underground kingdom, creatures are attuned to the darkness and mostly have a skin color matching that. So my suggestion would be to rename them to Dark Griffin / Night Griffin or something (base/upgrade), and make them grey, black, or with a few purple elements.

The Griffin as it looks 'normally' is imo not really suitable for Dungeon. It needs to have a proper skin change. At least you put them in the Elite tier where they belong .

Great work, RedSarah .

Yeah, I'm going to recolor the griffins as they look to "heaveny" for dungeon. Got to experiment with them to see what colors fit and what needs to be changed, I hope the upg has geometry under armor so I can remove some parts, maybe the helmet as I think it doesn't look that good. Also I want to modify the face from their armor into a screaming one/faceless mask. Maybe a "raven" griffin will fit, who knows. I just hope they are going to put them inside beta.

While I agree here they are kinda asking for it by using so much of h6. It's just showing what could have been, since the manticore model definitely would be a reused h6 one. Not that it's a bad thing cause like the Minotaur, it's unupgraded version was nice.

Replace that HORRIBlE clone Elf (doesn't matter which of the two, they are 100% the same) with an Evil Eye (named Argus) and i'm your fan.

Aren't you the same piepo that was so against their design a while back?

And this isn't their design, this is stolen from Warhammer, Warcraft, Lovecraft, Zelda, Mario, Dungeons and Dragons and whatever not.

According to this community, if something in Ashan vaguely resembles something, it's a ripoff or straight-up stolen. The behemoth looks vaguely ape-like, therefore it's Donkey Kong.

Still am. Always called out snow for what it was, and this retouching makes no exception. These concept arts are flawed in their design, a different color palette is inconsequential for an acceptable outcome.

"Community" is my catch-all term for "someone did this and I forgot / didn't identify who." It's great for complaining without pointing fingers.
