The Brakas uses 9 shades for its primary color, 5 shades for its secondary color, and a nondescript dark shade for shadows. We also know from this prototype image that it was going to be red and blue. The only Rahi in the game that uses 9 shades of blue and 5 shades of red is the unnamed scorpion found in Po-Wahi:
This exact colormap doesn't look right when applied to the Brakas, but if you rearrange the colors, separating the reds and blues, then it looks pretty decent.
Overall, compiling this spritesheet was easier than I thought it would be, especially considering it started out looking like this:
(It's actually less of a mess than it looks, since all of these 8x8 tiles are more or less ordered. That is to say, all of the tiles for animation 1 sprite 1 come first, then animation 1 sprite 2, et cetera. It did take a lot of time, though, so I'm not going to do it again immediately.)
Edit 1: this sheet is now on The Spriters Resource!
Edit 2: turns out the Brakas does, actually, have a color palette in game. More on that here.
