The suit looks nice.

As for the dress, can you put it on top of the player sprite so that everyone can see how it would look on character? By regardlessly, I personally don't like the colour scheme... yellow on magenta?

A more reasonable combination would be with white:

You can see this site for some examples on styles and colour scheme:

In the mean time, I am waiting for the unlimited possibility of that dress on a male character. Men with padded breasts. XD

well purple and "magenta" as you called it is a sine of wealth in alot of cultures, especially old english, purple is the royal color and the gold gives it a shine. when you takeaway these colors you loose the entire feel of the dress and it just becomes decorated. these are my thoughts anywy thanks for your critique.


any critiques on the male suit?

But that is magenta, not purple O_O

There is also no such thing as golden lace as far as I can tell. Perhaps you can add some jewels and accessory instead?

Wait for more comments. I think we are the only ones online. :D

But you really think that colour is fine? Why magenta instead of purple? Well, we are from different culture and different set of value and taste... I just think clothing shouldn't be more saturated than the player.

I think the colors on the dress look fine as is, but I'm a guy so I don't know much about dresses. =P

And the male suit looks really nice!

The only critique would be that the embroidery looks like it would need some shading, right now the lines look like they are just drawn on top, rather than part of the clothes. But your not finished with the set yet so not a big deal. =)

Purple? Magenta? How about pink? Or maybe Fuchsia? Violet? Orchid? And what about Cerise?

Not that it really matters. On the long run all items are supposed to be recolored dynamically. Thus it is much more important to focus on the pixels instead of the colors.

Sorry, I meant the purple in X11 (i.e. #A020F0) or the medium purple in X11 (#9370DB).

And yes, it doesn't really matter since it can be recoloured.

Crush, is it possible to recolour the lace and the fabric with different colour, or will the recolouring be limited to a single hue?

Yes. Magenta and yellow are two of the colors thar can be recolored (as long as they're pure). These are good choices.

having recolored versions ruines the idea. if you want different colored dresses why not just make new dresses if we have different colors of every item its boring. i dont like the idea

Because of customization. For indeed, I wouldn't wear that colour in real life even if someone pay me to do so. And it also make sense. When you go into a shop for dress, don't they have different colour, because not everyone like pink?

For armour, it may be a little weird, but for clothes, it really makes sense.
