Boss Cohort
A compilation of pixel-art rpg ennemy that I think work best as boss or miniboss.
3 of them are remake of sprites from my old sprites pack available here: https://opengameart.org/content/gilgaphoenixignis-rpg-ennemy-sprite-pack
I think the new versions blow out of water the olds; I think I made a lot of progress in pixel-art since that time.
Fun detail: one of the 2 completly new sprite is based on a old medieval bestiary representation of an elephant... wich look nothing like a actual elephant and make it obvious the artist was working with second-hand descripton of the animal. It end looking more like a féline.
Since rpg tend to draw inspiration from fantasy wich itself draw inspiration from the medieval ages, I found interesting the idea of a fantasy world where elephnt actually look like that; hence this piece of pixel-art.
Other fun detail: the other new sprite is a representation of a demon ... and actually ressemble an elephant.
