Description

Some time ago, I was struck with a pretty awful feeling about my characters: so many of them were far too similar in design.
I think I’ve always known this, but it’s still a pretty horrible feeling to realize your art kind of…sucks.

So, this was an attempt to fix it a little with Gene.
This is my first attempt at altering his look and...I failed pretty bad.  I guess I earn points for the attempt, but really there is no real difference. All I can really guess is that Gene’s being stubborn…

I wouldn't call this a fail, I see that you changed his ears and muzzle and his nostrils are different ^^

Hello:
You sure can know that I think your art does not suck. But I have been in the same dilemma (if we can call it that way) about characters looking too similar between each other. I think it can be because of the races we use for characters, they do have similar factions that are less open to variety than human heads/faces.

But it is great to see you found a way for more variety .
