I think that it looks fine, it may just be a recolor of Lead Armor but it pretty nice.
To be honest I acctually didn't notice the color difrence before but now after noticing it I would like to retract my sugestion, having it stay as it is looks good.
I saw you had done iron so I did lead for worlds that don't have iron. I will also do the halberd and other variations of the armor. I couldn't get the same colors you used, I couldn't figure out how.
I think that the colors are fine. I started writing the comment while thinking that this was a recolor of Iron Armor and forgot to change that part.
Oh, ok
Yes, I'm aware of that. Naturally, some worlds have lead, instead of iron. I just used iron for armor, because that seemed like the most obvious choice for armor for the purity faction. (fitting for towns, cities, and maybe castles) - the lead armor has a darker feel to it, which would make it maybe a bit less fitting in something like "the castle/town of the good king" but it would make fitting for a dark(er) castle, or fort.

I used yours and lead armor as the base. Ok, I will work on the other variants and gender for the lead guards.Yes, I'm aware of that. Naturally, some worlds have lead, instead of iron.

Did you recolored the iron guard? or used that, and the actual lead armor as base?
Also, I think the mod should be open source in github, so, you might can get the sprites from there, but I'm not sure on that.

but, it might be easier if I just post some of the guards here.

(these have normal, probably leather or cloth pants and sleeves, but there are fully armored variants too.
spear and halberd versions. male and female versions of each.
the girls have smaller arms and hands. when the arm is armored or the the clothes are more baggy, the sleeve can be bigger too, but the hands (usually) should be smalller, to fit to the vanilla town NPCs' design. normally this goes for the legs too, but that doesn't matters here, because the leg is covered by the armor or in this case, long pants. also, obviously, they have the female variant of the chestplate. and they also have visible hair, to make them look more feminine.
and I came up with a small idea for a furniture NPC based on that idea. My idea is something similar to the 4 royals already in the mod but for something like a Demon King so for example instead of the golden throne that most of them sit on it would be dark and the king would have some evil/dark features like maybe devil/demon horns and a dark cape.
Again they look pretty nice. I especially like the purple eyes on the first two, makes them look more menacing. One small problem I see is the lenght of the spear, from what I can tell the guards in the mod have longer spears then the ones you made (unless it looks like that becouse the helmet is bigger) also the first guard's spear is a bit longer then the one the rest hold.
Yeah, I need to fix the first one. The lead helmets are larger so they look shorter.
This might be even harder to code, but maybe it could help you with the completion of the bestiary?
But how?
Maybe he could give you his ''research notes'' which would unlock some of the information for an entry in the beastiary (he wouldn't unlock new ones just update ones you already have). It would help with getting full entries for some of the rarer enemies.
Ooh! That's actually a pretty clever idea. although... would you spend gold critters on that?
I dunno. if it would make a big change, it would be too OP. e.g. even just +1% chance with rare items could make a big difference. and a small difference would sound like, not worth the hassle. gold critters are very rare and valuable themselves.
It could still be a nice option to have. Golden Critters have (usually) 3 uses : decoration, money and crafting food. Decorations made with them are ignored by most players and getting 10 gold at later stages of the game isn't that useful so for most players the only use they have is crafting Golden Delight and even then if I had a choice between the food and beastiary info I would probably take the info becouse I really like reading the entires but hate grinding for 50 rare mobs just to fill everything in.
