The Big Chibi - with example!

Hello, hello, I'm about to introduce the template: The Big Chibi.
The Big Chibi is far from completion, so right now, I want to know if I should continue on it.

Hope you like it, if not, tell me what there's not to like

Cheers,

Oh my god... it's... um...

Well, it's huge. Its head is too wide. Actually, scratch that: the whole damn thing is too wide. I don't think I'll use it, but someone will.
 
I know it's wide, that was kinda the entire point, but I'll see if I can do some small adjustments

Updated, it should be more likable now I hope!
 
I would call it Chibi-like.

Sure, it's big - and yes it's wide.  But I absolutely love this attempt.  Though personally the shading in the arms and upper torso don't really match the rest, and I'm not liking the midsection - but hey that's what clothes are for :)

I'd definitely keep it up.  Crap, I'd actually use this for my li'l side project, it's got that perfect look for innocent easy going atmosphere.
 
thats not true.. it actually depends on the drawing type... and its cool but... isnt it the new and the old the same? xD i dont see any change..
 
I personally don't like it. As big of a fan of Breeze as I am, this just doesn't pull off the chibi feel to me. It seems like a oversized breeze sprite head attached to  a more realistic frame as opposed to the big head and smaller body feel that chibi is supposed to pull off.

The template itself is not BAD, I just don't think it does "chibi" justice with the template. With that said, kudos on your work and may it do well.
 
Looks great man i  hope you finish it ^^, imo i think the crotch was better on the old version though, while the body is thinner his legs seem to be too thick on the newer look.

You should also put up a size comparison to rtp or whatever so folks can see how big it really is :)

Edit: Just my opinions on some things you might want to change, the hips are way too high on the template you should lower them by three pixels i think, and you have too much shading on the arms, made a small example on the hips and arms and legs so you can see what i mean, hope you don't mind this.

Edit: You can also move his chest up by one pixel if you like, i think it will look better that way.

Wow, thanks for all the great tips people, I will see to make some changes later on, right now I'm quite busy (yet not busy enough to not check the forums)
Thanks a lot!
 
Wow... for some reason, that's a helluva lot better... sweet!

If I was you, I would remove that dark line where his nose should be (not the one where the nose bridge is, the other one). It just looks a little out of place.
