Haha, it is pretty big. But I like it's size. It's as large as I envisioned. I promise, I've got some ideas for small mobs for the Nether coming up soon.
I would love it if these dropped some sort of pelt. Or maybe make it so you can get the head as a rare drop and have it mounted on a wall in your house.
maybe they should be neutral and commonly appearing in underground lava lakes, they become hostile if u hurt them, harvest from their lava lake or drop water on them.
I'm for making the Nether a more well rounded place, with an emphasis on danger. I generally lump the mobs I think of into three categories, Hostile, Non-Hostile and Mob Village. I feel like the Ghast is clearly a Hostile mob, the Zombie Pigmen are probably going to be a Mob Village type in the Nether, and my Salamander could be a Non-Hostile mob. Don't worry, my next idea is Hostile!
Holy crap those are huge. Can't we have some tiny stuff for in the Nether?
It probably is a bit big, but I'd honestly rather have something be too big than too small.
... That wasn't a great argument, but, that's about all I've got.
Besides, it's a non-hostile. And there'd be no other non-hostiles (barring Firehazurd's other proposals) that would be this big.
On-Topic: I like these. They remind me a lot of Legend of Zelda's Dodongos, but I'm neither implying that this was inspired by Legend of Zelda, nor am I saying it's a bad thing for them to be reminiscent of Dodongos.
Edit:
Also, Firehazurd, in regards to your signature URL limit quandary:
Why not create another thread that provides links to each of your mob suggestions? If I recall, there isn't much of a limit to links within posts. That's probably the best, and easiest, way to work around this problem.

Are you always so pessimistic?
Yes, yes I am. A pessimist is always either right, or pleasantly surprised.

Egads..this is World of Warcraft meets Battlefield 1942 in a dark alley with way too much to drink and no discarded mattress nearby.
This is awesome. You got this art thing down, why arn't you working for notch!!!
anyways, this is a great idea. I could do some sprites for the armour when I get down with HW.
Oooh! That salamander model is just cute as a button. Maybe if they were immune to lava (not their hide, so you couldn't have lava-proof armor) you could slap a saddle on their back and sail across a lava sea?

I agree, it's a little too large. One block shorter head-to-tail wise.

Do you plan on having mob drop lightstone? If not, this can feasibly be one the drop lightstone dust.
