A complete redraw of my first buff cyclopean snerman (snake merman)'s detail sprite, with the overworld sprites adjusted accordingly. Huge thanks to Hapiel, Jinn, and Drea for their advice and encouragement; I wouldn't have managed this without y'all.

This is still part of my series of images based on randomly-generated 7x7 sprites, although I did not reference the original prompt image at any time during the process. I'd already committed to the character design, Alleged Shirt and all, and just wanted to make him seem more towering and fix the perspective and pose. He now takes up the full 64x64px bounding box I've given myself.

I'm aware that The Alleged Shirt is pretty much the masculine equivalent of a long-sleeved chainmail bikini, except even less protective in a fight. That's okay. He can be Mr. Fanservice.
