got kinda lazy with jacket but ah well

(note: not pokemon trainer outfit, pkmn trainer outfit is actually based on this one!)

Sorry dude... But that face is fucking horrible.

Noticed two pink pixels inside the chain-lanyard and took care of those and messed with the face a bit. I did a couple more eye experiments to make the eye stand out more but still make it evident that it's wearing glasses.

(refresh the image, btw)

Yeah, that's slightly better. I do think the hair could be improved slightly as well though, but now the face doesn't look so much like a ball.
The shading from the neck up just seems totally different from the rest of the sprite, so maybe that's why it just looks so weird.

hey i was hoping this was going to be a super-cool kofxii hd sprite but no.

I never finished that ):
