Jubal's Sontaran Skinpack

(http://i.imgur.com/9UUDnGn.png)

To go with the 12th Doctor skinpack found here (http://exilian.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=5124.0), I've finally finished my Sontaran skinpack! This is a five file mod that will replace the main goblin variants (shielder, clubber, axer, shaman, and bomber) with Sontarans from Doctor Who. The clubber and shielder are armed with glowing laser-batons and laser-swords, the axers have redesigned sci-fi translucent axes, the bomber still of course wields bombs, and the "shaman", now the orbital strike controller, has an antenna for summoning orbital bombardments. Hope you enjoy!

INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

1. Navigate to: Steam/steamapps/common/My Mom Is A Witch/Witch.app/contents/resources/gfx/goblin-axer
2. MAKE A COPY of the "goblin-axer.png" file (call it something like shaman_normal)
3. Paste the alternative png contained in the attached zip into the folder, and rename that to goblin-axer.png
4. If you want to switch back to the goblin, just switch the filenames back round.
5. Repeat this process for goblin-bomber, goblin-clubber, goblin-shaman, and goblin-shielder to install those skins too.

As with all modpacks this is an unofficial project, released for free and downloaded/used entirely at the user's own risk. As a legal disclaimer, Doctor Who and all related concepts are owned by the BBC, and My Mom is a Witch and all related concepts are owned by Bigosaur.

The colors seem a bit dark, but it looks pretty good.

I did try brighter colours when I started, they just felt wrong for the Sontarans somehow. I may have another play around with them at some point, but I doubt many other people will be using them so unless the downloads take off I'll probably just leave it and work on a few of the other ideas on my list next time I get to make skins :)

I forgot to mention it earlier, but the Clockwork staff is the closest we will get to the sonic screwdriver. The "stop all traps" effect was influenced by that idea. I also considered having it open doors and chests as well, but the staff seems too powerful as it is now (as it's one of the rare ways to rob all the dungeon shops).

I do like the clockwork staff - it's a nice weapon :)
