So, I've been considering putting together a NGPC Chonrei based on a few RB2 endings:I figure it's simpler in NGPC, since less trouble than removing the nunchucks from every Hon-Fu frame + headswapping =PAnyway, while changing NGPC Kim sprites, I figured I'd give it a extra tweak and try to allow the sprite to look barechested by palette trickery, so the base turned out like this:I'm still not too sure about the belt thickness and its shading, since I worked from Kim's completely black belt and want to allow it to be white like in the endings. Not sure if the hair needs work either.Anyway, the default look is supposed to be this one: And by changing the palette to make him barechested, it ends up like this:I'm not sure if the shading converts well from cloth to skin...Any comments or suggestions to improve?...

Quotedoes it make that much of a difference if it's applied equally on cloth or skin?actually yes because they're 2 different shapes. you can give his torso a different shading or give the sprite 'flat colors'. there's also something not convincing in his right hand.also no neo geo pocket version?
