Nah, I tried to keep the 1.5x resize matching her original personality, which is why she has a subtle smirk on her mouth,but maybe the realistic requires some more exaggeration to make it obvious. Thanks for the comment!

Exceptional work.

My only bit of feedback is not about the work on the pixels themselves, but about the character.

It's because these changes shift the feel of the character and her personality to a complete 180°, towards something that's much more grittier and serious, like a Skyrim character. Yep, even despite the green hair and vivid colours.

Was that intentional? It could have been.

I've toyed with FE mugs before and it may be that due to the style, they all come up as happy, wide eyed chibi little things. Still though, I remember L'Arachel being somewhat funny/comedy relief and quite upbeat, so something felt off.
 

Beautiful char.

Thanks for the comment! I agree, this piece is pretty old and looking at it after such a long time I can see a few flaws with the neck area.

beautiful <3

pretty nice i just think the lower part of the neck dark shading could be better
