Hi Monsoon2D, no I dont mind when its pretty like that!
I wasnt very happy with the optical bit in mine so I've gone for a bit of a compromise, I realy liked what you did, but I wanted to keep a bit of colour in there as well. I've also taken into account some of the other bits you did, the undershine is really nice and I've applied that to some more of the body, also I was initially worried too much aa might spoil the style but after seeing yours I've added that to most of the edges. Oh I've also added some proper shadow to the legs and back.
baccaman21, no thats fine, fundamentally I am here to learn, although I felt I'd followed the rules, I just wasnt sure if I'd done something wrong, but I can't say I lost much sleep about not having set up the gif pallette! I'll worry about that when Mr Nintendos knocks on my door with a sack of loot
Back to the bot, basically, no. hehe I hadnt thought about it but I guess I could maybe desaturate them a little. To be honest I'm not really too keen on that look, its ok on a side view, but in that case it greatly helps tidy up any animation, which I dont think is such a problem in iso. Regardless I might try it anyway, I may change my mind when I see it.
Thanks for the comments etc
Edit: Thanks Dhaos, yeah particularly after seeing that edit I'd noticed that also, hopefully thats rectified a bit in the new version.
