Title: Seven Knights

For this week's challenge I decided to revisit the seven knights challenge.  Trying to deal with the odd palettes without dithering.

I don't have the knack for getting character across in the portraits that ptoing does though.  Something to practice more!

Also I hope its okay that I'm bending the rules a bit here? By putting them all in one image, I mean.  Otherwise I would have to make seven submissions and that doesn't benefit anyone, heh.

Forgot to mention, from left to right: Royal Guard, Beast Rider, Fallen Knight, Squire, Paladin, Barbarian, Page.

 Nice, this is really good for the imagination somehow. They're some odd-looking knights, but I'm sure they're good at their jobs. :D

 The Beast Rider is my favorite of these. His design is simpler and the colors flow smoother.

These are totally awesome, if these were in the original competition I would have voted for 3 of yours. ^^

If we somehow could convince Lackey how much we like his art so that he'd make more of it, consistently, and not dislike it or think it a failure himself, it would be awesome! Favourite.

Amazing use of the provided palettes. I am working on my own knight from these palettes, and I keep looking at these dumbfounded.

Amazing portraits! I like the beast rider and the fallen knight.

Meh, just submit your favorite one separately or something. I'm quite partial to the Beast Rider myself.

you win at life...

Unfortunately, though, the rules indicate that only one submission of each chosen "knight", as each have their own separate palettes, and the piece can only contain 7 colors. This can definitely go into the gallery no problem, just won't be submitted as a challenge submission, as it's not keeping in rules of the original challenge.(that is unless you submit all 7 pieces separately, which I agree would suck major nuts, and make this piece lose it's appeal.)

sorry about the bad news, man...
