...So, uhh, I'm actually working on something to submit for the redesign contest because I'm sick of seeing all the American flags...
But I need advice. Belt, or no belt?
◊
I'm concerned the belt makes the outfit too complicated, which would kill the design. Is the belt is too distracting, and should I streamline and simplify the design by removing it?
Also, too much yellow or no? Is it redesigned enough, or does it just look like casual-weekend-outing Miku or like I tried too hard to avert the usage of U.S. flags? Is it too redesigned and does it need more elements from Miku's original design? Would it appeal enough to whatever "average American" Crypton is going after? Any other random critiques?
...Is it even worth continuing work on this? I kind of hate it already, and there are a couple of really
nice
designs that I don't want to go up against.
No! Keep the belt! It pulls the design together! Also, give her some eyes, she's freaking me out!
Hmm. Maybe a bit too much yellow; we don't want her to look like she's cosplaying Rin. How's it look in other colours?

Overdosage of wips here

^^ A different belt...as in a less floofy one?

Tumblr here.Less-floofy might be good.
I like the first one in that bunch and the second-last, but maybe the stripes could be white or pink? I'd be interested to see it, anyway.

Maybe it's just me, but her face looks...........a bit masculine for some reason. Maybe it's just the color, or I'm just tired, I dunno.
What happens if you shrank down her cheeks+chin area?

Now, translate that into Thick-Line Animation art style and we have a winner.
Yeah, i really like that design actually. It looks like something Miku'd actually wear.
You are not alone.Thanks to everyone who commented/gave suggestions. This
◊ is what I ended up with...is there anything I should alter?
Foolish artist. We all know it's Len who busts the best rhymes up in here.
