Glad you like it Sir LD! Sir Zozma has an almost finished Barinten sprite, so I'll base the clothes from it.

Looks very nice Mike! It has a slight Red Mage feel but it's not forcing it :)
The only thing I'm not too fond of is the collar/scarf thingy... I know it goes with the Red Mage thing but... IDK maybe it's just personal taste, so don't mind me much..

Ah yes, speaking of the scarf... do you recall the scarf that Rad has in his first sprite? I was wondering if he could carry it with him through the chapters, it has a storyline purpose of course.

Quick question: Is their going to be a portrait change for Rad? Because as it stands, it pretty much just is a Knight's portrait.

I'd like to see Rad get a more unique portrait as well.

Unless it looks similar to Winshmo's art for him, I'm afraid that's not a possibility, by now Rad is recogizable by his face, but if you do something, base it off of Winshmo's current work, please.

Um, so Rad's face and hair has to be that of a knights?

If you take a look at Winshmo's seperate art pieces you'll see he differentiates how Rad looks from his portraits.

Alright, I did a little bit of touch-ups but I'm not sure if I fixed it. Anyway, here you go Mike ^^
What do you think?

EDIT: I touched-up the one on the left, without hat, since Sir LD mentioned no hat. ^^

Where could one find said art pieces?

i have to say, I like it.  It would be nice if over the course of the game he gradually got to that point though.  The jacket would make for a significant difference without being overwhelming... I think.

Ah I see. Well the portrait could be changed. All that is needed is bangs in the front. In fact, it would do Winshmo's art more justice to give Rad a nicer portrait, I think we can agree that the bangs on the knight and the bangs on the Rad of the artwork is a bit different in the first place.

Perhaps if there's no colored art of Rad, he could have brown hair instead of blond. This would differentiate him from Ramza a little more, and make the portrait look less like a knight, especially if someone decides to do some minor alterations to the hair's shape.

That, and as many people have said, there are a lot of blondies.

I think we should still base it from the Knight's portrait. :)
I'll work on the portrait, you guys on the sprite. Thanks~

This design looks nice, but he is looking more of a noble than mercenary IMO. I think it's because of this white thing around his neck(I forgot how it is called >.>).

Still working on this one, just showing you my progress so far. Tweaked the hair, replaced the eyes and eyebrows, gave him a ponytail (just for kicks) and have begun the process of aging him.
