I have found much consternation trying to avoid banding on the sprite's left shoulder pad and left boot. Is there a solution to this or is that ammount of it acceptable? |

definitely a lot of banding..
on a brighter background the edges look very jaggy.. maybe use an outline around it the sprite itself is quite nice but the many colors make it look very blurry maybe u should try more of a cell shading style heres my try on it 
its only 9 colors instead of 63 it looks a bit comic-ish now but if u want to go for a more realistic look u can add more details and aa by adding some more colors |

hhmm.. I like it Onek! but I should have mentioned the color count is temporarily high to keep things separate so I can later go through and palette it. You should see the ugly 'working colors' one heh; or not. It needs to be in this style since I've already made one complete sprite
sheet for this up and coming on-line FFT clone called Tethical.. here's
a screenie of the other sprite in a beta map.. 3d by my friend Kivutar-
a great programer and textures by me. Lijj.. Maybe I just have to
change the design a lil to get out of the 45 degree corner I feel I'm
in? Does any one know a good technique that could shade these two pieces
right in the shape they are in now? |

Well hell, I'll figure it out one way or another; I guess just working and re-working the pixels until it looks right is the solution for now. Until I learn |
