Hey guys, I was just wondering if anyone out there either has or could make shield icons that have a similar aesthetic to the image above. If you guys know of a source please link me to it. I need about 5-10 unique shield designs.


I should also mention that I would like the icon to be angled in such a way that it can look like a shield being used in sideview combat like the image above. In my project the icon will be placed in an animation sheet to show the characters block visually in battle.

This is for MV and the size of the icon needs to be 32x32.

As a sidenote, two of the shields you posted above seem to be of rather low quality. Avery has redrawn those two, so the quality is a lot better (it's under MV II).

Thanks for the link! I was already aware of her icons and they're beautiful but she drew those two shields in a slightly different style than the original, which is what I actually prefer. I appreciate the help though.

I could have sworn the VXAce icon sheet had more shields than that.. Also, you could always re'color some! :)
I'll do some search-fu and come back this thread.

EDIT: Download Yanfly's Icon Generator.. there a decent number of shields in the VXAce section, and you can recolor too. Good Luck!

I've already recolored all of them several different colors but I was searching for some more unique designs. I have a lot of shields in my game ranging from "rare" shields to "legendary" shields. It's hard to see a shield as legendary when it's just a recolor of the first shield you got in the game.

I already have. The images you see in the op are all the ones I can use from it.

Well, I tried to make a couple of them based off the shields in your original post but I don't think creating shields is really my thing lol. Maybe you might be able to use them:

Thanks a lot GalacticGod! I like the blue one you posted. I'll be sure to credit you in my project for this!

Have you also checked out Avery's VXAce icon page? (I'm sure you have.. ). She has a huge set of nearly RTP Styled Icons for VXAce with lots of shields in there (along with themed armors, etc.).

:)

I have but blowing up those icons make them look pretty rough and I was hoping I could get my hands on something that looks more refined for what I'm after.

No offense, but do you even read my terms?
Upscaling them in any way that makes them blurry is not allowed AND I have an tutorial for how to do it better.

Actually let me correct myself; I could be wrong but I don't recall ever downloading your VXAce icons, just your MV sized ones. I've tried blowing up other icons of VXAce's size and that's what I meant.

Also, I didn't just mindlessly yank your images from the site the other week, it's been years since I downloaded those images and read your terms so honestly I just forgot.

Couple hours of work. Might use in my game as a secret find or something. Not sure. Fancy though no? :D
Holy stink, where have I been? Well, I started my temporary job this week. So less time to spend on game design... :(
Cartoonier cloud cover that better fits the art style, as well as (slightly) improved blending/fading... fading clouds when there are larger patterns is still somewhat abrupt for some reason.
Do you Find Tilesetting or Looking for Tilesets/Plugins more fun? Personally I like making my tileset for my Game (Cretaceous Park TM) xD
