The blue is used in her eyes and the red is simply an unused color. The sprite itself only uses 15 colors.

I have seen this quite a few times and I like ur Sprite its looks its costume. . . even tested it ingame. . . this maybe small or no significance to you at all but here let me state it.

A well done looking sprite ^^
Kindly upload the images to other image hosting sites. I can't view imageshack. Thanks.

That's nOT really necessary, seu.
Just replace the brown shade in the eyes to a lighter color, and less saturated that will match the color gray.
Use that color for a gray color, for the eye shade.

That is, if you want to.
It's optional.

The sprite is looking good, I can't see any mistakes etc. But can I sugest hair color swap(at least try), there are so many blondes in FFT :)

You have extra colors left over, right? For ease's sake, just make them the eye colors or something small but significant.

There is nothing to be done,since what mav said is already done,the eyes are blue.
Need something useful to write here

But the pixel above the eye (which is technically the eyebrow) could be some color between the eye color and the eyebrow color. Dark blue, I suppose.

It's not the greatest idea in the world, but whatever.

Is there a precedent for the idea you're suggesting? Maybe if you can name one, I'll take a look at that sprite and see what I can come up with.

No ideas are stupid, I'm open to anything that would enhance the image overall. I appreciate your suggestions.

sorry, i wouldn't do that if you are planning to match with other sprites which all use that black eyebrow.

its not really necessary to do anything more with the sprite at all. If you replace the blue pixel thats between her eye white and the eyebrow then she will look like she has the typical FFT style eyes which is the best option

Well, the eyes she has currently are pretty much directly ripped from Balmafula, colors and everything, pixel for pixel, so I figured it'd be all right.

EDIT: Also, mav, I fixed those black pixels. Thanks for pointing that out.

Anytime. Honestly, having leftover colors shouldn't be a big deal. Though to be clear I don't think the whole eyebrow color should be replaced, just the one pixel right above the blue on the eyes--basically my suggestion is exactly what Seushiro did...You could also give her one more light hair color, different from the eye color. So if this is ever used as a generic you could probably give her various hair colors for her different palettes without messing up the eyes.

But like I said, it doesn't matter that there are leftover colors--your sprite is top notch already.

Would you mind doing a quick example of what you think would be good, mav? I'm having a hard time trying to picture what you mean.

Meh, it doesn't look good, so I'm not gonna show it. Trust me though, the sprite looks terrific right now. If it's complete, you should submit it.

Although not perfect, here's a similar example:

I'd like one day to make a complete set of Vanilla sprites with improved eyes.

Hm, I'll give it a go, Mike and see what I can come up with.

EDIT: Hm, looked pretty decent when I tested it out in-game. I applied the new eyes and outfit changes to the sprite, and re-uploaded the submission. Thanks for the tip. :P

submit your sprite

if you really see the need to improve something you always have the option of resubmitting as an update or updating your post before its added by zodiac. but really, some of these things are minor oversights really....
