Made an edit of my edit, reducing the total color count to 16 and tweaking some pixels, also changed some colors. Kept the chain-mail look of the first edit.

Beside the flaming sword, I like your take on the colors the best so far, Reo.

Everybody's done some tremendous stuff. Once Ptoing's around we can get everything filtered and compare and learn in that context. I'll have words for most edits after that if you'd like them. And obviously, go right ahead and critique each other / me when we've got everything filtered.

I will perform scanline magic on these sometime tomorrow.
There are no ugly colours, only ugly combinations of colours.

st0ven: Damn that looks nice! Both this one and the Altered Beast dude have a nice, chunky, angularness to them that is very pleasing.

15+trans. Noodled around quite long on this. I am not used to sprites anymore, what with doing mainly background stuff. But I think it came out solid enough.
Colourwise I unified the greyish ramps for broader range and ramped the darkest brown a bit more to red to go into the cloth colour. Nothing special.
