 ->  25 to 12 Also, complicated doesn't mean ridiculous color count, especially when the contrast of the colors is so low!

A problem with the dwarf sprite is the massive amount of colors it has. The original Naija has 7 not counting the background, Xion's shiny armor Naija has 10, and Eclipse's dwarf has 25.  ouch, 2 mins and i'll be back with a palette of 10, didn't know there was a limit >.< edit: blargh automatic palette reduction sucks  14 counting also the black, i had to dither the beard  oh, and 25 colors aren't a "ridiculous color count" at all, and using low contrast colors makes some tiny touch that sell the picture (for example in the 25 color version you can feel the armour isn't completely shiny but have some cuts and stuff on it)

There wasn't, it just seems unnecessary and out of place to have that many, to me.

changing his beard  I used dithering in the first version, as well, but it didn't go with the cel-shade style of the previous sprites. Now do you see how hard this is?

That's what I based the original sprite on, actually. :D

I think Eclipse's take on the dwarf is definitely the best so far, but Inane's versions of the colours are the best and most in keeping with the style.
Also, I think Inane's hands are more along the right lines. That curled up fist has been bothering me, but I couldn't put my finger on why.
