Hey again folks! (or, well, hell im not around here much, so hi to anyone who's new too!)

I started pixeling again, this time of my current tabletop group's game, and I'm thinking its going okay but I haven't pixeled much in over a year so I'd really love it if anyone could point out if I've forgotten or screwed up anything badly

THE TEXT IS ALL PLACEHOLDER - obviously not hand pixeled... just not actually sure on the spelling of some of the names and I can't rightly find out from folks at 2am, so I'll bother with that once I know for sure how to spell 'em all~

I'm at 19 colors right now, which I feel is more than I need but my brain can't find any to get rid of without messing up a character's color scheme or skin tone~


Anyway, if anyone sees anything that could help with readability or colors or anything, I'm all ears!



EDIT:
Now all the text is pixeled, though a few of the names im still uncertain on spelling, but whatever~ Also various tweaks to the sprites themselves. Also, apparently I'm down to 18 colors now? Found out the original file was created in CYMK so that's mucking up the total color count a tad. 18 should be right though.

This looks really fantastic to me, I have no complaints. The text is much cleaner after the update.

i'm having a hard time finding something to nitpick... So I won't!

I quite like the color scheme, and the presence of the DM screen, which I didnt notice at first. Takes me back!

well dang, thanks folks! Guess I haven't gotten as rusty as I feared. I've made a few minor edits and minor animation (just the player #'s), and I'll submit it to the gallery.

and Ottbot, glad the DM screen is recognizable! every time I tried to add design to it it became too distracting and busy.

I was going to suggest adding some detail to it, but, I came to the same conclusion... it'd be a distraction.

as much as i love the colors, my eyes find the entire ensemble a bit too strong.  i think more contrast would help.  for instance the background could be a darker burgundy.  everything is very midrange
