Humans (while they may be characters) are not designed by people. So they aren't considered character designs. Now if you are referring to human study that's different. Im not.. Im referring to character design. And again I type ..nostalgia does not make a design a good design, it makes it nostalgia. There has been many great designs in the past of many things. Old men wearing panties on the outside of their stockings..not one of them. But hey if it makes you all warm inside to see it good for you. It looks stupid and clownish. I love the ever-changing fashion in clothing, sportswear, armor, and character design. My thoughts ,though travel to nostalgia, are not stuck in the past. Like reality I have moved on. I understand nostalgia. But I don't get being mad at the world for moving on, from my past. We aren't in the 30s or 40s. We are in the 20s..lol
