Here's the texture test that I did.

The numbers in the middle are the sizes of each texture

It's almost a meg so might take a sec to download.

Also I found out that the updated Luclin textures aren't max size. Most are 256x256. I've done some testing with files as large as 1024x1024. Will upload something showing that shortly.
Not to be a critic too much, but it looked like the eyebrow didn't match his facial hair/hair color. I couldn't tell with the dark light before as much but with more light I think it's a bit more obvious.

But other than that, I do like it a lot =) Keep goin'!

Here's the first 100% completed updated set. Turned out pretty awesome. Xevin did the armor and I added some texture and created the face.

Kobias I made some slight changes to the eyebrows of Mustache Man but I think I'm done with him. Still have like 7 male faces to go so don't want to get too bogged down in details.

Is there a simple routine you are doing to make the textures look crisper or are you going through each one painstakingly altering them by hand?

No problem man, just wanted to post my observations, thought it might help for future renderings too. Thoroughly impressed with your progress so far! I played around with that Nice Image plugin today, and I'm impressed with it so far. Can't quite get the same quality results you guys have, but I was thinking of trying to use my Tablet to improve my designs [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I can't wait to see how the face my human has will look, or those Robes that Xevin is working on [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Nope there's no shortcut. We have to rebuild them from scratch so it takes a while.

Nice work, I like what I see so far. My only question would be stability, does/will it work with P99, ie, will it make me crash or not. Graphic updates aren't always stable but if it turns out to work then count me in. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

It's just textures so it's no different than http://www.project1999.org/forums/showthread.php?t=2482. So no, it shouldn't crash anything.

Another face. Keep in mind when checking these out that these screenshots are way closer than you'll be interacting with most of the time in the game. So minor flaws here and there you won't even notice while playing.
