If you guys want to have fun with that thing without the limited palette fucking things up to some degree,

here you go. (Just make sure to scale it down to its original resolution, obviously.)

Some of the little details get wiped out due to the obviously limited amount of shades a certain tone has.

And here's a more kind image.

Looks quite nice when run through 4xbrlv4 and pointresized to halve the resolution.

The blue armored one is hardly news - the main offender among the scaling algorithms is that heavy dithering makes them fall apart.
The other one showcases that a ton of very intricate details and line flows also makes them take a dump on the quality, since they're there for a reason.
