I'm still not liking it. I think it's the hair that's keeping my unsatisfied...but I tried to adapt your suggestions, Kage and dwib.

EDIT: And another one; our little friend got a haircut.

Looking great mav ^^
And yes, the hair is bit troubling here. And I think second is better. That haircut looks funny, if that's what you're trying to do. Hehe ^^
Also, is it possible to make the glasses something like Mike? Because if you look at the reference picture, his glasses is round, something like Mike but a bit smaller. And I think Vormav's hair could work.
Anyway, great job mav ^^

EDIT: Kage, I help you a bit for Vivi ^^
Here's my attempt:

Vivi Work in Progress (16 colours)

Take it if you want ^^

that vivi WIP is great, and the edits to that portrait are good also. the shading was probably a simple fix but helped a lot

Thanks dwib ^^
Though I'm not sure which is better for that red string at the neck/colar there. So I post two of them ^^
Also, unfortunately, the eyes can't glow like the Black Mages. Max colours already =(

Nice edit Jimmy, but you added so much custom (I suppose) that it will be big pain to create ;) , maybe you will try to do it then??

Mav, for hair I would suggest using Wiegraf, I took his head for sprite as well.

Btw dwib, it is strange that it is saturated, because it's palette from thief...

Haha. Well, I thought of helping you and adding the details, so it looks more like Vivi but I guess too much custom huh?
Well, if you don't want, its cool. You can continue yours ^^ Just giving it a try though. Hehe.
As for the saturated green, perhaps take a darker shades from the thief Kage? ^^

To be honest, Vivi is left and won't be continued by me for quite some time, so maybe you will try?? Your version is far better than mine anyway.

I don't think it is neccesary to change greens of Lezard, but I will try.

I tried to do something about Lezard's portrait, just remember it is my first portrait I have ever done, so don't slaughter me with crits.

Not bad actually Kage. I think its quite fit, the reference picture, I mean. That dark outlines behind his ear, softhen that. As for the hair, perhaps change the colour to gray. I mean, his hair is gray right? From the reference picture. Also, for the sideburn, I suggest follow back Wiegraf's or maybe copy/paste other portraits' sideburn that you think it fit.

I will try your suggestions Jimmy. About hair, its blonde, in VP1 his sprite had very messed colors that's why he had gray hair, but in VP2 he was pure blonde.

Good to hear that it wasn't a massacre ^_^

Yes. That looks better. Well, if his hair is suppose to be short, that is. If its suppose to be long, like what mav did, then that sideburn is correct. Ah, blonde...I see. Alright then. So is his hair short or long? Like the reference picture?

I didn't quite like the hair I'd used, so Wiegraf's is definitely an improvement. Though does he look like the character? I don't think mine did, but I dunno if this one does either. And should we change out the hair color? The grayish brown from before seemed closer to the actual character, but again, I'm not sure.

I prefer gray, like the reference picture. Looks nicer ^^
As for the hair, Wiegraf's seem to be more like the picture. Though if possible, need some changes for the hair. ^^

Maybe if you could make Wiegraf's hair on him just a bit shaggier it would look more unique and like the character. I did like the gray hair more, but I don't really know the character at all.

yes, now just make the blonde look more like a soft brown like his picture and it will make more sense. in the sprite as well. Its obvious weigraf hair so definately at least want to do away with the same hair color

i actually liked the first portrait i saw with greyish brown hair the best but of course it doesnt match the character as well. was an interesting idea using that hair

Oh and Jimmy that Vivi concept is amazing. Like Kage said it would be very hard to actually finish, but it looks amazing.

In portrait his hair sideburn should be longer (much longer), about color, it should be dark blonde (it was like that in VP2), hope this helps Mav, btw he is beyond 16 colors (both portraits).

Very nice looking portrait Kage, I've always thought there should be more glasses in FFT... maybe it's because I wear them?

Maybe it's because I find it hard to believe that all the characters from FFT have 20/20 vision... I mean how often do we have to endure the "missed"?
