Thanks for that long elaboration on the recent sprite! Didn't take note of those exact similarities. Pretty cool.
And yeah, that's exactly what I meant about the eyes. The style's so different. It's strange that way, seeing the resemblance and yet not at all feeling the same as you do if you see the original. The form of the eyes makes for some semblance of innocence IMO. Maybe the skin tone too. Not as grizzled and gritty. At the same time though the contrast makes it all the more interesting! It's just a note, not a complaint. ;) Appreciatively fresh take.
