Nova 5 is an old robot character of mine that I never really used for anything, even though I should. She's a cute robot girl with a zany robot arm! I started this originally with an 8 bit palette, but I eventually switched it over to EGA and finished it up. I really, really love EGA art, and I enjoy working in the palette a lot. I tried to get her skin to look metallic, but it's difficult to do. I think I did okay, but it doesn't look quite as shiny and metal-y as I had hoped.

You could use the mid-cyan to improve the shininess/smoothness of the legs.
Otherwise, I'm impressed. very good use of the EGA palette.

There is another EGA palette, you know.. it comprises 64 colors (any 16 colors of those 64 usable onscreen). it looks like this
and was available on EGA video cards with 256k of memory (average EGA cards had only 64k). It's slightly easier to use than the 16color palette.

I love the colours. They're so vibrant, nice one.

It's a great use of the classic EGA 16 color palette. The rendering is sex.

I don't like the colors at all. The pose is very drab. I don't wanna be mean but it need alot of work.

Nice character. I like the shiny, silky look that the dress has. Very sexy in a cold, calculating, possibly murderous robot kind of way.
