Yeah, the character here has assets that were more or less a style study for having quite large breasts (Momofuki Rio). Is the 2024 art in the images section also too much of a departure from what you're looking for? Sort of curious.

Selena's from 2023 is too much for me breast size wise as is 2024 while Mira's is fine for me. In the (what I presume to be) slime attack drafts for Hammy the last two (especially the last one) are where breast size is again too much for me. To be extra picky I also don't like the half glasses too as they for me remind me of the Librarian from Monster's Inc.
But hey I know I'm an more for Athletic/Petite characters or all fitting rather than anything too big. Like I'm all for Mira 2023 and Mira in the draft web animation, same for having no problems with all the party characters in Didnapper 2 and also Hasumi from Mission Mermaiden.
However as I said before, this is your project and your choice as to what you choose to do and have inspiration for.....doing something you aren't on board with won't help you with staying motivated, let alone finish it.
