Embla von Prios: Variations
Following the lead of Heki-chan and Limeyaku with their FFX-2 variaton pages, I decided to whip this up to help me keep track of which aspects I'm borrowing from Art/In-Game/FMV versions of Embla's costume from War of Genesis.
The colour of the top/skirt:
Art
FMV
In-Game
In the artwork for the game, at least, the main full-body shot, as opposed to the group pics, it's a sort of light reddish brown.

I ended up going with a cross between this colour and the FMV colour.
In the FMV screenshots from the game, the lighting is a bit low, so that has to be taken into account, but it's still clear that it's a darker brown with less red in it than in the artwork.
In the screenshots of parts of the game where Embla's speaking, there are 2D artworks to show her expression and such.  The colour in this is quite different in that it's a flatter brown with no red in it..if anything, it's more a green-ish brown.

And is quite a light brown in the in-game shots where, though it looks medium-brown in the shadows, it's very light in its highlights.
So dark it looks black and is pretty hard to see in a lot of the FMV screenshots...
It's a fairly dark brown in the artwork....
Her hair colour:
The border of the top/skirt:
Art
FMV
In-Game
Artwork version:
- Off-white border
- 2-Dimensional
- can't tell what the bottom of the sleeves look like

- the top of the skirt has the "upper" triangle going under the lower one (I.E. not over-under, but  under-under)
- the border on the slit stops at the top of the slit, with the front border extending a little past the top of the slit (i.e., front over back)
- diagonal goes from top-right to middle-left
FMV version:
- pale yellow border
-3-Dimensional
- plain border around bottom of the sleeves

- can't see front of skirt clearly in any screenshots
In-Game version:
- white border
- 2-Dimensional
- zig-zag pattern around bottom of sleeves (same as top of sleeves)

- the top of the skirt follows an asymmetrical over-under pattern from left to right
- the border on the slit stops at the top of the slit
- diagonal goes from top-left to middle(?) right

The skirt:
Artwork version:
- slit on the right (in pic...as in, Embla's left)
- plain border on bottom edge, just like on slit
- impossible to tell if there's a slit or not on Embla's right
- diagonal's angle suggests it goes to the middle of the side seam, not to the bottom corner of the front
- impossible to tell if the diagonal keeps going around to the back
- two seams on front of skirt
FMV version:
- no slit visible on Embla's right
top edge at back of skirt not visible under top
- border is either non-existent or impossible to see along bottom of skirt
- no evidence of the diagonal from the front of the skirt wrapping around to the back
- no seams visible
In-Game version:
- no clear artwork pics of skirt bottom, but sprite has plain border
- no slit visible on either side in in-game artwork, but slits visible on Embla's left in sprite
- diagonal goes to middle of right side of skirt, but it's unknown whether that white diagonal wraps around the back
- no seams visible

I'm just using my natural hair, so I'll be long-haired Embla instead of short-haired Embla. ^_^
I'm going with the artwork in everything regarding the borders.
I'm going with the artwork on this and also the FMV.  I've got the borders from the artwork and there's only one slit, which is on my left.
