    Was just thinking, since I like to whine about roleplay anyways lol, what could be quite cool extra feature for Pictomancer is paints.

    "WOW WHAT AN IDEA---" Hold on lol.

    So like how Bard has different instruments, what if Pictomancer could have some customization in their artwork? You could unlock different colors ('paints'), potentially different artwork to appear over your head, etc. Personally I felt some gamification* should have happened for Bard, but on that aside I think that here too-- so like max ranking moogle tribe might get you some extra moogle art stylized skills (art/minions) and 'paints'. *(part of why I generally disparage the lack of 'roleplay' in this game, like for Bard you could have had concerts in taverns, quests, etc, you get a mini-game but also a progression mechanic to earn instruments- encourage Bards to go out and feel like.. "bards")

    Heck, could have a painter's corner (real location with your easel, your own bob ross space) where you literally over time get to see it fill up with paints and art you've collected- and may even combine that with sightseeing a bit in some way (like you can paint scenes you've seen as a side content, mini-game, or whatever).

    Taking it all back into OP, if you want cell shaded cutesy paint you can pick it, if you want more neon, then do that, if you wanted more Byakko, or heck Okami (classic 'art' style game), ink painting only, and so on, you could get those. A lot of it would be just recolors and different filters (how cell shaded, sparkly, bright etc), but it could still be neat.
