Top Down Tokens (VTT)

Postby VisElEchNon » May 5th, 2023, 2:46 pm

Well, this seems like the right place for this. I'll be finishing up the work I'm doing regardless, but is there any serious interest in top down token recreations, for virtual table tops, like those shown in the image below? I have ideas for several different variations ("painted", "improved" versions, etc.) but right now I only have the 40 miniatures and I haven't even resized them yet so the bases are consistent. If there's anything interesting that people can think of for the improved versions, please let me know.

Keep in mind, these ARE recreations. I decided to have some fun with Hero Forge. :D

So, here are the sizes I'm going with:
50px: General blobs of color that are differentiated enough that you can generally tell what's what.
100px: Blobs of color that you can actually see some detail on.
200px: Actually look like miniatures provided you don't zoom in too much.
500px: High quality, looks good even when zoomed in to fill the screen.
1000px: Ultra high quality, for when you want to zoom in on the mini's left pinky finger or just hate your players and want to lag them out.

Well, I haven't gotten any replies, but I did get a few likes on Facebook, so here you go.

There's a text file with links to each mini on Hero Forge, plus zip files of each of the 5 resolutions I created. Enjoy.

This is what's in each zip file. The actual images are sized so the bases are all the same size (with a few exceptions, such as the Giant Wolf) and blank space has been added so the bases should center properly if the images are set to native size. No, the Dwarf is not twice the size of the Barbarian. ;)

I hope these get to see some use, but I'm not a VTT player. Since you asked for criticism, I feel the black figures are hardest to make out. Can you lighten them a bit or up contrast?
