I do want to keep his lumbering physique tho so I'll preserve that I think.
Yeah I thought you might.
He looks cool, more of a throwback vibe
And now his arm looks a bit more separated from his body in a good way.
That one missing pixel under corner of scientists right foot is odd compared to the other sprites.
It seems like if there was a perspective like that then that right foot would also be 1 pixel lower than the other foot, and would need to be applied across all sprites.
Either perspective looks good but I think you gotta choose one or the other, depending on what perspective you want on the ground tiles.
