Final Fantasy Hacktics

One of the sprites I've been working sometime ago.

Our Tresure Hunter,Locke directly from FFVI.

Still having color issues,the sprite is actually 18 colors

Cool sprite.
Can you make the clothes a little bit brighter? (and the gloves, too)

Looks pretty cool. You have 2 different types of blue, make it one type.

Hair is the wrong color. It's supposed to be a very light dirty blond, not white.

Edit: Yeah, the design is pretty much spot on. Good job.

Pretty good concept. I like Fein's suggestion about the two different tones of blue, though changing the hair color like Vanya says might make for some shared colors in the skin tone and hair giving you more options.

Thanks for the suggestions everybody.

I will make a new color for the hair,it will share with the lightest skin shade

Using the same blue for the jacket and the pants isnt a good idea,I tried it,looked too plain

Brighter colors,interesting,I will try this.

I based him from his original FFVI sprite.

Sample the sprite's colors, that will usually give some interesting results.

Edit: Ninja'd! -_-

Saw this Sprite coming. And all the Art for that game was pretty inconsistent for Locke. Look at the Concept, the actual ingame sprite... and the portrait. All have huge differences.

This sprite is looking great. Keep it up and what they said.

I'd recommend just using the chibi version as your main reference.  You can tell what everything is with it better than the others.

Actually, the FF series didn't start to have consistency with the artwork until FF7 and even then it was with the character designer's art not Amano's.

I definitely agree with going with the chibi design it can always be used as a base for an Amano version a'la` Dissidia style.

Very nice work I have a fear that there might be 1 too many browns. I'll have to look, later.

Yes! This is a sprite I've been waiting for. Make him look like his FF6 sprite: headband, exposed arms, vest, platinum blond hair (hell, it looks almost greenish in the sprite). For kicks we could give the portrait his signature bandanna and intentionally make it look different from his sprite, but that'd be a little too strange, eh? Try taking Wiegraf's hair color and see if that works...

Good start. This is a beloved character, so expect people to be on your ass for every little detail.

my number 1 character in ff3 or 6.  

Wow,so many posts,I followed most details from the chibi sprite,but the hair,which looks gray for me,I even tried to copy the gloves/boots tone of brown

Wait, would Aliste's hair color work on Locke? Or is that too dark? It's got that sheen to it, but I dunno.

Here's a quick edit I did with the snes sprite's hair color for comparison.
Also shaved it down to 16 colors.

The only issue there is seeing the jacket and pants separately.  At a glance, it isn't clear they are separate.  When the sprite is in motion though, I don't really think that should be too much of a problem if the rest of the animations are done well.

You're absolutely right about that, Silvas, but I'll leave those issues to others. I just wanted to show that the palette could look reasonably like the original sprite without looking out of place in FFT.
