Nope, the idea is agree together on a standard charset, and THEN call it a graphic mode. 
But we may accept some level of artistic freedom too, not available in PETSCII 
As I see, traditional PETSCII has some limitations in shading, have only "rude" transitions, and hard to do diagonal ones.
As you released and made some very good character based arts, I am sure you know what I mean.
I tried to correct these weaknesess/limitation during this concept art (wwanted to show the possibilities in a character based screen), but certainly it is still not the final stage (nor the GFX, nor the charset).
I plan a much finer version especially for Plus/4, when (if) an ECM editor will be available. More colors, more shades...
