Looking for feedback on Oswald (sonic style)?

[Cloud6625]

It still looks far too much like the Cream The Rabbit sprites you edited. I would start over making it from scratch with references instead of taking official sonic art and altering it. If you do insist on still using this sprite, Oswald's ears stand up instead of flopping down. His pants are also a lighter color. The shading is also extremely messy and makes it hard to see his form. Here's a reference pick for some help
