To add item to some units based on similar items exist on other sprites with similar dimension is easy, it is just copy adjustment, and merge down. Apprentices' shield above coming from swordsman's sprites which already have shield which is the same method I used to add shield to Hordes and Gladiators. Minotaurs is a bit more complicate due to suitable shield is tower shield not exist among vanilla sprite but I create that before when I create Legionary sprites for my own submod in other thread. The same could be said for some minor recolor. Thing would be much more complicate if I have to create something that not exist before which need a lot of trial and error to make it look good. Most of my sprites coming from modification of exist ones, Vampire is basically modification and recolor of demon sprites. Phoenix is fusion of cockatrice's body and griffin's wings with completely recolor. My reworks of Gorgons is basically fusing naga's tail with with your current gorgon's upper body. I admit that I have no capability to create completely new sprites out of nothing.
