Pazuzu is a boss from Final Fantasy Mystic Quest.  He's actually much harder than the final boss (the Dark King, as seen in another [uglier] piece in my gallery) due to a bug/easter egg which makes the Dark King die in three hits by the cure spell.  Anyway, that was my first RPG, and it has a special place in my gaming heart despite its general lack of sparkle (though the music is great).  I felt that it would be nice to redraw him in a less cartooney/simplistic style to give him proper justice, so here he is in my attempt at FF6 style.
His original sprite can be seen here.

Important Note:  Colors were partly taken from the palette of the Poltergeist Statue in FF6 (and there's probably a few phantoms running around, but I'm not going to go after them atm).  Numerous monsters from FF6 were used for reference.

Yes, IE 6 - the BG appears green on my screen.

Hmm... the background is transparent for me.  Are you using IE?

I remember being stuck on this boss, and it was one of my first RPGs. Great pixel art by the way, I like the wings.

@Skooba-dude:  Thanks!  They are indeed in different poses; I meant his right one to be bent/folded inwards.
@RollerKingdom:  Thanks

the wings are fantastic, though the seem to be a different style from each other, or belong to different poses. I would have basically mirrored the left side wing and made adjustments to fit it. Th arm looks a bit jagged because if the feathery effect, but thats not really important, overall, KUTGW I wanna see more.=)
