It's probably your eyes reacting to that lime. Now I love lime myself but I suspect the one on the right would be more popular. I will take both though.

I think the green Tshirt on the left is a little too bright. I like the one on the right a lot

Want a specific style of house or community building? Why not take a look at my profile and see what I build and then come ask me to make it!

While I do love green, it's my favorite color, (hunter green to be specific). The green jacket on the lime green shirt ...bit hard on the eyes. I do however like the more subtle darker teal jacket on the lighter shirt.

On the green, it might be better if the jacket where green and the shirt was the cream color. Then make could make the pants the same dark green as the jacket.

The teal is lovely.

OK, so the one on the right is usable as-is, but the other one ... needs work. Thanks, folks.

Yeah, I'll take another swing at it.

Is this better?

I've done what I could about the flat-looking pants. I have to start with the white parts, which have gray and black shading that essentially gets washed out when a dark color is put on them. Anyway, latest attempt at green pants, plus attempt to match Yuxi's navy jacket. If they still look too flat, I don't know what else I can do. So far, recoloring the shoes remains beyond me -- sorry, CaliBrat.

I can do a few things with them, but wouldn't say I understand them.

I'm liking the look of some of those variations.

Thx, maxon. I'm aiming for 4-6, so if a couple of those are good as-is, I'm most of the way home.

I think I might be getting somewhere. At least, these shoes are supposed to be a dark green.

Well you can see they're a different colour from the trousers now though the green you have to squint for a bit. But, yes, it's there. I do like that green and cream combo on the top.

Yeah, the top's a keeper, the only question is which bottom to use with it. I'm tempted to leave well enough alone and go with this one; maybe lighten it a hair, but no more.

As for shoes, it's nice to know that I am starting to get somewhere.

I think the trousers/pants are too black, which is why you can't see much detail on them. I would lighten them, unless they look better in game.

They don't look bad in game, but do look better lightened a little. I think they could maybe go a bit lighter, but not too much.

Here's a prelim in-game shot. I know the outdoor lighting doesn't show the jackets to best advantage; I'll try to do something about that for release. Anyway, left jacket, center trousers, and left and center shoes are Yuxi's, all else is mine.
