So I'm thinking of changing my art style for the art that I make for law. Up till now I've mostly just been going with my typical anime art style but I'm getting a little bored drawing my girls this way I'm thinking of changing my style from that to something more reminiscent of Shantae. what do you guys think? I had chat gbt draw up a concept design to help get this across.

edit: I have read some of the comments here and while I do agree to an extent that this makes my character basically just look like Shantae in a different outfit the fact of the matter is my character already looks a lot like Shante to begin with(not be design but by pure happenstance) Hitomi Rose was a character I created back in 2015 her purple hair comes from Yourichi from bleach and her tan skin comes from her ancestor Bardock her hair shape particularly on the top of her head is supposed to be reminiscent of the original hair option that I gave her in the original Dragon Ball Xenoverse which had a hair option similar to that of Gine from Dragon Ball minus.

All of these elements together create a character that looks very similar to that of Shantae just with black eyes instead of blue and normal rounded ears instead of pointed ears.

I feel that your style is more stylish than ChatGPT’s

May I ask you, does the style of the chat suit the idea you want to convey, or do you feel it doesn’t?

I mean the style is fine I just kind of want to change things up to make things more interesting for myself. I'm more used to drawing Chibi characters anyway because of the way that I draw my own avatar for my YouTube channel and the Chante art style is very chibi-esk especially in half Genie hero and seven sirens so it lends itself a lot better to my art style that I use for my avatar. One of the reasons I use this art style is because it's a lot easier to draw so I can draw my avatar in a variety of different poses a lot easier than if I were to draw them in a pseudo Dragon Ball art style like I drew Hitomi here.

I think I agree with Hagen-Autem. Your personal style is better than the presented alternative. Cuz when I see that, I honestly just see Shantae in an outfit swap with slightly different colors. Maybe if more details were changed, such as the hairstyle or something, I dunno.

Right now, my vote's on your earlier, more uniquely personal art style. It sounds kinda like you want to swap art, though. XD

My vote's on earlier. Also, next time you make a thread like this it might help to include a poll.
