Thanks dude, noted. At the same time, i'm slightly hesitant. I mean a 'knock off' can be done well to distinct itself from the source. For instance Ryo and Akira. Ryo bears many similarities to Ryu, but i feel he has become his own character who just so happened to be based off of Ryu. From a visual standpoint, Akira is almost copy paste. However many things were done to make him unique. For instance his fighting style is almost nothing like Ryus (btw i intended to give him an original moveset anyway) and he was even expanded upon by the game giving him interests outside of fighting. Granted it was teaching a martial art but still XD I do completely agree on the size aspect though. Creating just one frame takes an eternity, so i think i'll downscale it no matter what. I originally intended to go in a similar direction to Akira truthfully. A 'Don't judge a book by its cover' type deal, have him look similar to Ryu, but having similarities essentially stop there. Due to being proficient in many martial arts myself, i truthfully based some of this character on myself. The design honestly started like 'I find Gis comfortable, mine is blue, i also like sleevless shirts. FUSIONN...HOOOO!' XD I have a ton of ideas for attacks and the like. I do sincerely appreciate the input.
Also i just REALLY quickly drew up a rescaled version. No shading, just the outlines
