Test trying to make something passable looking with that awful 4 color CGA palette. 250x250 pixels. Character is Parker, from Wildbow’s Pathquest, a 1940s physics student.

    Lovely dithering technique on a challenging medium. Keep it up!

    Very hesitant to offer any criticism (cause who the hell am I) but the hat doesn’t stand out from the background as well as you’ve done for the rest of your subject.

      Tl;dw
      CGA 4 color 320×200 mode could produce a lot more colours on a NTSC screen.
