whtdragon's animals and running horses- now with more dragons!

Christmas comes early this year and I've got one doozy of a present for everyone here. I noticed when looking at the default resources in MV that there was an unusually small amount of animals--a smaller amount then most of the other RPG makers, and that will simply not do. I took a look at every other RPG maker's animals and I decided to remake them all for MV. I then also added some new animals that I felt like should be givens for any typical game. I tried to keep them faithful to the MV style, and there are a few I'm not completely satisfied with, and I will try and fix when I can.

Current count of unique animal sprites: 50+ (s-so many!)

I was also given a suggestion by Skysurfer about running horses. I was not going to do that at first but then I said "challange excepted" and well now we have running horses. (again trying to keep to the MV style)

DISCLAIMER:
the running horse animation IS 4 frames, so you will either need a plugin for extra frames or you will need to use some other method of using 4 frames in your animations, but it should be usable. Apologies that I could not bring it down to the default three frames, I really did try! But it just was not working like I wanted it to. Alternatively, they can be used in RPG maker XP. For the sake of information, the frames are 64x57, slightly bigger then the original sprite.

Terms:

As these are (mostly) edits of MV's sprites, you will need a legal copy of RPG maker MV, otherwise~~
Credit is appreciated, but not required.
They are free to use for commercial or non commercial.
You are free to edit, change, recolor, re-edit, remix, maim, mangle, add on, divide, and conquer to your heart's content. I don't even mind if you re-upload them elsewhere as it would only mean more people get access to them and that is A-OK in my books

Spoiler

common variety of fishes

round fish:

dolphins:

sharks

Larger Sharks: Due to the size of these sprites, I will not be making full sheets of these. They are about the size of three MV default characters~!

Great White Sharks:

Molamola/sunfish; a friend has pestered me for awhile to specifically make these guys!

Giant Octopus/Kraken: This guy was split into two parts, one for the head, and one for the tentacles. Because of how big he is, I will not be making full sheets of him, but hopefully having the tentacles separated out will be fun to play with and animate/move in game cinematics

Manta Rays:

mini manta rays:

seahorses:

large jellyfish:
large%20jelly.png

large glowing jellyfish:
large%20jelly%20glow.png

seals:

sealions:

Fishing animations
Disclaimer: you WILL need to heavily edit these into sprite sheets, this is more of a resource sheet. The animations are simplistic for those that only want vague shadows, and doesn't want anything super detailed.

Spoiler

Mythological animals: Unicorn, Carbuncle, Cockatrice, Giant Worm, Kirin/Qilin, Golems, walking monstrous mushrooms, mini mushrooms, running radishes, kasa-obaki/傘おば,Tanukis/ たぬ,Kappa/ 河童 ,floating skull heads, RPGXP styled ghosts, death sprites, zombie animals, possessed books, Arimans and catbear and werewolf/large wolfbeast, Giant cat/saber cats, Mimic Gate, and behemoth, spider people, giant bug, recolored bosses: death, demon king, false prophet

Carbuncle:

Kirin/Qilin/麒麟:

Golems:

Cockatrice:

Giant Worm/Larva:

Walking mushroom:

Mini Mushroom Men:

Running radish:

Kasa-Obake/傘おばけ

Tanukis / たぬき / 狸
both with leaves on their heads and without u w u/ 'cause I thought it'd be cute~

Chubby Tanuki; These are more human-sized, complete with some disappearing animation. There's also a statue form that's a nod to a certain old school video game

Kappa / 河童 / かっぱ
couple of different versions.

floating Skulls/ghouls: inspired in part by Zelda games, these are litterally just floating skulls and some of them are on fire. I dunno that's pretty cool maan.

Ghosts:

Death and misc. spirit sprites: gave death a smaller/human-esk form that's more manageable from his boss sprite

zombie/undead animals:

possessed/magical books: includes opening animation!

Ariman: based loosely off the 2003 design, though they're probably closer to the Final Fantasy series' version

Catbear: loosely based on a monster from secret of mana

werewolf/wolfbeast: would likely be too big for a werewolf that most people want and would simply just be a big giant wolf monster instead. Now with pants!

Big Saber Cats: FINALLY got around to making full bodied versions of the heads for the big cats I made for Sin's trophy heads

Mimic Gate:

Behemoth: note: these do not animate. I figure they'd be better suited to use with overlapping effects:

Boss types~!
because we could always use more bosses/big sprites! I tried keeping the recolors at least somewhat interesting

Spider people:

Giant bug:

recolors of death

Demon king recolors

God/False Prophet recolors

Dragons and Wyverns:
we got both! due to the nature of the sprites most of them, I will probably never make full sprite sheets and be single character sheets instead. Most of them are simply too big.

small wyverns, large wyverns, rideable wyvern, baby dragons, asian dragons, large dragons, recolored MV dragons, small wyvern/flying serpants

Spoiler

Wyverns:

larger version:

Ridable Wyvern:

Baby dragons:
baby version of the MV default dragon:

cute fat lil' dragons:

Asian serpent dragons:

upright walking dragon; kind of my take of the old RPG maker 2000 dragon both winged and wingless

Dragon Recolors:
I gave them more interesting colors based on region. Desert, tundra, volcano and ocean. (so far)

Winged serpants/small wyverns/flying snake types: these where pretty simple in design, and I know some people asked for flying snakes and serpant-esk dragons. I do want to make different kinds at some point but for now, I hope these will be sufficient enough

limbless:

limbs version:

There are some more sprites I made that aren't included in here, mostly additional animations for the animals seen here. They are not finished, but I wanted to get these out before Christmas, and I'm hoping I'll get to see some creative additions and use from the community.
I do plan on maybe getting some more animals out, but probably not for at least a week or two at the time of this posting. I've already got some animal suggestions, but I would like to hear what would be the most popular/requested from the community, and I hope this shows I can do more then just some simple tree recolors and edits lol u w o;
