Yay for bubbles! Though they are rather random, they still look cool. Matriax, if you want to keep the bubbles, perhaps you could dim the 'shines' by making them more saturated (add more purple to them). They would blend more that way. Just an idea though.

Lol, cute. I remember these. I wonder how much hell will be raised this time haha. Like I mentioned before you did a great job on these. Nice color, proportion and design.

lol my bad XD アソドル　Seems katakana is rusty since I never get to use it heh. Thanks for pointing out my mistake.

Btw andy what is the popover menu censoring XD. I see a 'g' and an 'n'. I'll buy an 'A' for 500 please.

Nice tweaks xion, he's looking better with every update. I finally got around to an edit so here it goes:



[PALETTE]
-lotta dark tones that were nearly identical to each other so I merged them
-unified the colors of the mask highlights with the shirt
-unified alot of the blue tones (coat + text box)
-added a few orange tones for a glowy mask (since we all know all that glowy is awesome)

[PIXEL-PLACEMENT]
-used one more of the shirt tones to AA the coat (this might go against what I said in one of my earlier posts, sorry if its confusing)
-angled the shirt folds (pixel art in general works best with angles)
-on the coat, < side was flat because there were no breaks in the outline highlight (the folds would force certain areas to be darker than others)

[LIGHTING]
-that neat blue highlight on the mask should have a falloff (instead of light blue in the front of the mask, the hues should shift to a more natrual mask highlight color, aka greyish-green)
-highlighted around the googles to make them glow by choosing a saturated green and replacing alot of nearby tones
-I faded part of the image by reducing the highlight color as it went down to add variation, since the scene is quite dark anyways
-looking at my semi-final edit I realized the coat edge highlights could be alot brighter but I'm a feeling lazy..z...zzzzzzzzz

*note: I didn't have time to fix the balance issue (mirroed look) that would require a change of lighting and pose ^^U

There's probably more notes I left out but its 22:00 right now x_x. I hope this perversion helps you in some sick way >_<. If theres something else you dont understand dont hesistate to ask me z..z...zzzzz.....

0.o wild. Nice piece xion, quite realistic, however I think its also a tad blurry. The suit seems fine since its velvety (maybe?) but the mask and where new colors meet is blurred, perhaps contrasting those areas would fix it.

blurry color shifts:
tie meets suit
goggle/glass meets mask
coat/suit meets undershirt

I also should mention your pallete is really sweet =D.
