Humakty, I think that for humanish nations the base game should offer engouh sprites which can be modified.. it doesn't give graphics like amos or Sombre have in their mods but the game isn't about the graphics but about the play. If it resembles what you want it should be enough (well that is my opinion)

For non human nations I'd only start on it if I have enough pics on the net to modify, which I must admit usually tends to lead to my base troops being a bit to large since most pics can be sized down to a 64x64 pixel sprite but smaller (which humansized troops should be) usually ruins them. Which is why my orcs look like giants I fear.
I think the whole base game should use larger sprites though, 256 for size 6 and 64 for size 2 (humans) would really improve the graphics. But that is off topic


HUmakty, if you want to work on a .dm file (and a challanging one I'll tell you) you could work on the dead space nation that is being made for the dominions 3000 mod by Nikelaos. He's working on some sprites for this very ambitious nation they are getting in slowly but there are some now and modding for them could be started and you'd just have to keep up with the output of his graphs (or if you can find out what he wants exactly with the nation (which I've not gotten out of him yet) you could work in advance). Since I'm working on a nation of my own I wouldn't mind someone else doing the .dm file for this nation (which I did offer to do so I'll do it if you are not interested).
