Any tips for getting better images? These are from Ultimania, which has very small character art. Missing Piece has bigger versions, but unfortunately plasters Japanese text all over them, making them completely unusable for archival.

I don't think they need a redo.If they're pencil and marker art, then that's supposed to be the best resolution you can get via resampling.On the other hand, if you can find a way to resample it w/o losing resolution, go for it.
