Beeeeeeh, now that you've double scaled that sprite, I need to redo it.
Anyway, here's the thing. I want red to look red. I need to change Mona's palette for that, seeing as she's still a bit purplish, but the red needs to be actual red. I don't want to make it look all Super Smash Bros., where [url=http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/RealIsBrown]Real Is Brown[/b]. Like in animation and comics, I want to make the colors as vivid as possible. It's a huge contrast with game sprites, which mostly don't pop out as much.
The main criticism I had about the C+C here was that it was mostly based on the fact that I used Zero / ZX style, which is pretty much bullshit. And if it really bothered many of you guys here, you should have given me some help back when I was open for suggestions on a new spriting style. The color thing I am working on more, as, well, Samus just looks like shit. I need to redo her face, I wasn't really a fan of it. Perhaps you guys think it's fine, but back when I made the sprite I didn't like it. But aside from that, I always struggled with her armor, as it wasn't as shiny as I wanted it to be. I mean it used to be shiny, but then a disk whipe or a crash or something set me back on that development (I had to redo the sprite from scratch, which, ironically, was the only sprite I had to do from scratch, seeing as all the rest was already magically backed up on another backup disk. Fuck my life).
Luckily you made the process of redoing the colors of Samus a little bit easier. I might need to go back and change the colors of the bike also (at least if I want to use the bike again). The only thing I'm not fond of is the redness on her armor. I originally had the very same color as the middle one, but then I figured out it was too purplish, while her armor had a definite redness, or at least in the Real Is Brown games it was brownish, but those can be easily fixed. I'll try to whip up a new version of that armor (palette wise).
Anyway, here's some tests I ran with Mona. The main focus is on the dress, but I also did a test for the skin color using the MvC version of the Juggernaut. Not a good idea.

Finally, I most likely took most colors from other games. Because I can. And because I'm Batman.
