A new request

[Wyatt]

Look to your left, now back to me. Now back to your left, back to me.

That sprite is my old one, but I need a new one.

Due to injuries sustained by Marcus, the Great and Powerful™, Wyatt is no longer wearing his medium armor. After the Sacaen Festival, he is going to remain in classical Sacaen garb to minimize the load placed on his weakened leg. I would like to request a new avatar for this. Face, Half Body, or whatever is of no major concern of mine. I know we have a lot of talented artists here. I just want to borrow some of their skills.

Thanks!

Here's my attempt

[Wyatt]

It's not bad at all. My biggest concern is with the robe color. Red and green don't tend to mesh well unless you are a Christmas tree. I have difficulty imagining Wyatt in a green colored getup with his red hair.

The second issue I have is that Wyatt is a full on strength character. Fighter->Hero, Axe master, smithy, etc. Even though he is still young, I always imagined him having broader shoulders/larger stock then a classic 'teenager' sprite. Problem is, I'm not sure how many sprites exist in FE that would work for that without looking hilariously awkward.

[Edward Zobek]

I was just sticking with the color scheme I had established with the first two sprites. I've always liked using opposites on the color wheel. They compliment each other. Do you have any particular colors in mind?

As for the build, again, I was going off of the previous two sprites. I'll see what I can drum up for "buff Sacaen".

[Wyatt]

Yeah, I didn't really mind the green 'collar' on the current sprite, but imagining Wyatt in a full length green Sacaen garb just doesn't seem like it would look right to me. Maybe I would grow accustomed to it in time?

Let me sleep on it before you change the color up. You may be right and I just wasn't giving it enough thought.

[Zacharia]

Dayan's pretty buff as far as Sacaens go, I believe. You could size him down to Wyatt size.

[Edward Zobek]

I know you said don't change the colors, but I figured I'd tweak the hue a bit to make it looks a bit less Christmas. I also tried to thicken him up. It's subtle, because I didn't want to enact the Redfield protocol, but I think it's at the very least a step in the right direction.

Here's what I got:

[Wyatt]

Much better. I do like the broader should styles on it, but I do have a question. On the sprites left shoulder, is that supposed to be a sash or something? I can't tell what that bit of russet cloth is supposed to be.

Overall, though, I quite like it. The nature of that color is the only thing that irks me, just because it almost looks like the Sacaen robe is a different color on each half, and that would be incredibly silly.

[Jabal]

Nah, I was thinking something like this:



The brown is basically worn like the white coat, but instead of the black shirt, a thinner Sacaen robe is worn under.

[Dietrich Landrik]

I like it. Adding a small border to the outer coat (I forget what they're called, but the ancients wore them) would better convey that it's on the outside of the Sacaen clothing.
