And why are the shoes cropped?

Nah, it's fine as is! Thank you ♥

Oh, thanks for letting me know! I just fixed it here. Do you think it's better if i repost?

Really good work! I love what you did with the colors of the original sprite! Remember, tho, we don't submit pieces with official spites to the gallery, even if it's just to compare (You're free to put the original sprite in the description or something like that! )
