@Kagebunji
Take note that images submitted are not official yet,
except for the Male Reliquian, bec. the class has already a sprite palette.
But I would really be grateful if want to try.

@mav
Make the turban more realistic, Make the colors a bit brighter. Add the jewel! :)

Thanks for the reply Mike. Maybe I should start posting in the actual Minwu topic, to prevent this one from getting too derailed...

Anyhow, I took some of your suggestions. With the jewel and turban--actually, I just stole your turban and modified it slightly--though the colors will come pretty soon. Right now he looks like he's spent too much time in the desert, but I'll clean that up in a post or two.

EDIT: The one on top is before I incorporated Mike's suggestions. Note the flap to the left of the mask, and the lack of the jewel on the old-style turban.

The second image is after I incorporated Mike's suggestions.

That's what I'm talking about!
I'm not familiar with Minwu from FF2 though.

the 2nd one fits better with the sprite and it looks clean. :)

I think that one is perfect! Very detailed for only 16 colors!

Is it official now? I mean, the Male Reliquian's sprite and portrait?

Hah, many thanks guys. I modified the turban's colors slightly, but if you guys like this, I'd rather not fix something that wasn't broken. For colors though, how should this go down? Right now the sprite is more like Minwu: darker skin, white robes, red jewel. I could definitely pick cleaner shades of white and lighten his skin, but that's up to you guys.

That's up with the sprite, too. :)

The portrait is great, need some improvements,
but I don't really care.

It's good as it is.
I'm placing it in the first post now..

Alright, lemme show you guys what it looks like with the modified turban, a different "color" white, and lighter skin.

Note: this is definitely 16 colors (others may have been 17) and should be the correct portrait size.

Hmm.. that might be too light, mav. Lower the saturation, maybe?
I agree, I like the previous one because of the dullness. :P

Alright, so I changed the palette again. At this point, I'm starting to like the palette I started with, so...

Anyway, changes: gray (as opposed to blue) hues on his clothes, dark skin (again), and I think that's it. This is using a similar color scheme to this female Priest.

Although I did like the colors on the last one,
I realized that the colors on the previous one fits better.
What do you think?

Compare it here:

For me, Last or previous..
It doesn't matter that much at the moment.

Alright, once again. This time I used this robe color; it's off-white, but looks a bit cleaner and matches the sprite a little more nicely, in my opinion.

The colors are nice once again.
But I still think the shading is better on the previous one.

Hmm, that almost has an odd... almost pinkish glow to it, I really like the modified grey one. Also yes, as these are generics, but not generics that join you hence skin color, hair color, etc, is meaningless. The dark skin is a very nice touch, which just perfects the Minwu sprite. The Reliquian male has a sprite! Now I am curious to see what you come up with a female Reliquian.

Wait, so is this a sprite for Minwu? Or just Male Reliquian?

if so, just make these the 4 palettes

Oh, good point! Yep, just Male Reliquian. Minwu is mentioned, but he's not a character living and breathing by any stretch.

So yes, I could see very creative palettes for these fellows (don't worry about holding uniform to FFT, the more varied the palettes, the better.)

Hah. Well anyway, I've attached the portrait that resembles the sprite pretty well. I'll probably bump the original Minwu topic as well.

I think I could easily do other palettes as well; let me know and you shall receive.
