    hallelujah!! I finally got my own computer and now I should have no problems ever again with anything stupid.

    I just got it today, so I'm still downloading necessary files and components for doing things that I want to do. In addition to that I have to re-download everything that I already had that wasn't backed up.

    It's a start though, so what have I started? Mirage R.O.B, Mirage Ike (yes still. you can thank xeno for that), Mirage Olimar, Mirage Wolf, and Mirage Ice Climbers.

    Regarding olimar, I started working on him in secret so that someone else can work on him first, so if anyone still wants to work on him feel free to do so.

    As for wolf, I asked obskore if I could work on him personally, him being one of my favorite characters to play.
    Unfortunately, he was one of the files that I don't remember backing up which is okay since I didn't do anything to him yet. I still have the linked file so I'll just re-download that and start from there.

    Edit: I just put my SD card into my computer and I came across some goodies.

    Fox Preview


    And Ike


    Eh? Eh? Eh? whaddaya think?

    I already have Ikes entire upper body planned but the lower body is still being worked on.

    Edit2: Updated OP with previews of the new fox.

    no updates? not impressed not impressed.

    Triple posting like a boss so prepare yourself.
    Ike







    I took pictures on various stages to get a feel of how they would look under different lighting conditions and I must say, they look rather nice.

    Changelog:
    • the boot color was nudged 9 points towards red.
    • the violet on the tunic was nudged 5 points towards red

    Wolf



    AAARRRROOOOO!!!


    Long changelog is LOOOOONNNNGGGG:
    • I changed the color of the boots very slightly. I had to nudge the main colors 9 points towards red, while the details was shifted 9 points towards blue. This was done to prevent there being too many different shades of the same color violet. (I also had to do this with Ike)
    • I also changed the pad on his pants to be purple instead of blue so that it could better tie the boots with the upper body.
    • I had to change the shoulder pad from black to purple cause black looked bad, blue would've been an overload, and purple seemed to be the only other color that would work.
    • The trim on the shoulder pads was changed from dark grey to light grey
    • The shirt was made purple because grey made him look shirtless.
    • The P:M logo was removed from the gloves
    • The jacket was made slightly darker to balance the overall look of the costume
    • The trim on the jacket was changed from black to light grey to be consistent with the rest of the stripes
    • The sleeve was changed from black to a dark and desaturated blue because reasons.

    whew. that was a lot of typing.

    It doesn't have to be pure black, you can just have it as a dark and desaturated purple. In fact that's what I did with my Falcon. All the "black" parts are the same color as his main body, just desaturated and much darker.

    I agree though that purple/midnight blue should be the main focus, but you can only do so much with base Mewtwo.


    Ok, worked on Mirage Mewtwo, and this is the idea I came up with. This is not final. Thoughts?
    I think the purple sticks out a little and I am thinking to make it darker.

    The purple does seem a bit too bright and saturated on both of them, but other than that I like them both.

    The jumpers are completely black as shown down in the texture file below. For some strange reason, Wario gets all glitchy and looks very odd in BB and becomes all messed up in game, so I have to use the old one as a preview. I may just restart my laptop or something

    For Ike:
    Maybe change the hair texture and eye textures back to their defaults if you messed with them? Can't quite tell from the screens, but it looks like his hair is more purple.
    Maybe change the colour of the boots to be more like his shoulder pad / chest pad thing too, a bit more brown would look quite good on this texture I think.
    And finally as Xeno said, tweak the saturation.

    For Wario:
    First of all, don't change Wario's logo to that old M. P:M doesn't even use that logo anymore, so it'd be unfitting to use such an old thing for a Project M recolour project.

    Second, is the goal of this texture to make a purple Wario costume, or a black one? This applies to a few other textures in the Mirage series, you guys should choose a main colour and make it stick out. As a good example, on PK-Thunder's Ike, at a glance you can clearly tell it's a purple Ike since there are no competing colours, and the other colours there (brown, blue) are subtle and help compliment the main body. With Wario, the purple and black are very similar, making neither stick out. The shoes should be a different colour too, you can barely tell they're separate.

    Finally, make sure not to add random bits of white into the texture as well. It sticks out yes, but not in a good way. It's bringing more attention to the white bits than the rest of the texture as it is now.

    For reference, here are the Brawl colours:


    Notice how the colour of the shirt and overalls are different, yet contrast well in a way that they compliment each other? Try a colour that isn't black on the overalls, and maybe brighten up the purple on his shirt / cap a bit.

    awww snap, it's taiko.

    I didn't mess with the hair color or the eye color, as that wouldn't give it an "official" feeling.
    I've noticed that ike's blue, red, and default skins have slightly different hair colors and I think I used default. But if it's an issue, I can change the hair to better match without making it look like it's unofficial.

    As for the brown idea (here we go again), I'll make another Ike similar to this one with your suggestion and compare the two.

    I'll have previews of both by tomorrow.

    Edit: OK. I  desaturated both wolf and Ike's purple by 30 points each and they do look fabulous.









    as for the tan Ike idea: in order for it to work, I would have to completely rebalance the color scheme by shifting colors around. While I don't really mind doing that, I would much rather finish the one I'm working on first.
