I've cut off a bit on the side sprite (1) and he already looks a bit better imo. As for the sword, I tried making the hilt rounded and I added a couple designs since most of the pictures I saw of rapiers, were styled. I haven't really tried adding the hand guard because unless I used a more vibrant color for the sword, the guard wouldn't be that visible. Bombshell, I meant by outstretched more like lifting your arms up to make a T/cross like position, but with only one arm. As for a splice-edit, it pretty much is. I made the head sprites (8,9) from scratch using "link capless" as a guide for the basic shapes, I then took an already existing side sprite of links head and recolored it to make number 1, then combined it with Vaati's body. I made edits to an already existing Vaati so that I could place the head, but keep vaati's robes/cloak (The body i used for inspiration was ripped by GregarLink10 and SpriteTrooper). I'll keep trying for the "٦" shape, though I kind of like it as is. I'm still working on changing the contrast in number 2 and the waving cloak, though any tips on the waving cloak would be much appreciated ^^"
