Well here’s my character. I tried my best, but I’m no pixel artist, so I just knocked a few of the existing ones together, altered the hue and put a hat on. I did alter the face slightly so that it’s not identical. As you can see, I have made many variations, with different coloured robes, and different hats. I have yet to decide which is the best.

I am going to make a selection of hats, and put them up for download, so that anyone working on one of these characters can simply put the hat straight on. All you have to do is set your background colour to pure red (in PSP, this is) and then paste as transparent selection. The hats can then go straight onto the characters’ heads. I have made the following hats so far: Bowler, TopHat, Beefeater/Gondolier, Stetson, BaseballCap, and Glinsk. (a Glinsk is a tall furry hat that politicians buy to go to Moscow in)
All the hats will be in png format, because I get unwanted anti-aliasing with jpg, and most other formats would be too large. I have zipped them, and they can be found
hereEDIT: Bugger! This is the first time I've looked at them at 1:1 zoom! You can't make out the detail! I hope this game will be fairly low-res.
