Just what the title says. There was a coloring of this by HotDog posted yesterday, and Photocopiers' comment got me looking at my own from a while ago and thinking about how it could be way better.

That turned into an excuse to use the c64 palette on someone's lineart again. Not as great as my c64 BAB dragon, I don't think, but I like it well enough. BG is flat color so I can control the bit of outer AA on the lance and tto preserve the c64 palette against whatever theme you're using. EDIT: Well, zapped the background. Obviously the piece itself isn't c64 restricted, but I used 15(now plus trans) colors from the, uh, I think it 's the ptoing c64 palette. Between him and pepto's, whichever is the lighter one is the one I used.

~2 hours, 15 colors, crits appreciated and encouraged but not likely to make it into this particular piece. EDIT: 16 now with transparency.

Oh yes, that's what I was going to do. Lineart obviously made by Adarias, original lines: http://www.wayofthepixel.net/pixelation/upload/lineart/adarias_1.gif

EDIT: Fixed a weird spot on the hair.

 The palette really makes justice to the original lineart. Very good.

Thanks so much, not just for this compliment but for all of the compliments you left on my stuff and the favorites and such! It means a lot to me.

Amazing in every aspect.

That's cool, I hadn't tested it on many backgrounds so I was trying to make sure, but most backgrounds work well enough that it isn't necessary. I agree about the default one by the way, it's actually really nice on it.

@Voldimars: Hey, thanks!

@sasuke91: Fine by me, it's not like I invented the c64 palette. I personally think that it provides a lot of color variety into a piece that could otherwise be quite bland and that it provides a very interesting challenge and learning experience about working with a strange and limited set of colors, in addition to learning how grey works as a buffer color. But hey, it's your opinion, I guess it's not for everyone!

It looks great in all backgrounds imo, especially the default. However, I didn't read why you wanted it, so if it's something you feel necessary, then go ahead with it. :P

Yeah, I think I agree. Alterred the hair a bit to fix it, thanks!

for criticism, the hair has one weird spot.  There is a vertical line of light purple that doesn't look very good.   The rest of the piece is so coherently colored, which is why it looks kind of weird

You sure? Alright. It didn't quite look right to me on other backgrounds sometimes, so I was trying to keep that from happening, but I'll toss it up as transparent. Thanks! And thanks to you too Frost Butt, I totally agree!

Nice job. Please make the background transparent though. :)

I really like what the c64 palette does to the piece :)
