Hey guys,
Just finished two concept designs for a potential character and wanted a second option on what design looks better: a) "Dink" in the onesie or b) "Dink" in normal clothes? Lol see attached image. All advice and feedback welcome...

The context of the game this character may appear in may help in picking which is better. They are both great, though - if the game is somewhat childlike of a setting, the left one is the one I'd likely go with.

I agree. The context of the game along the lines of stupid comedy and adventure. Kinda like adventure time meets Rick and Morty lol

imo, the right-hand one just looks like a Generic Male Character and has nothing else to it. so the left-hand one is far better.

with this in mind, i wouldn't like having no hoodie outside of battle because then i only look cool when im fighting. :\ idk, just seems kind of lame.

Looks good, even if you decide to use the right one, it would be cool/funny having to put on the hood to fool someone into thinking you were that creature (I think it's a snake/monster/dinosaur?)
 
The first one would be better for color design as its mostly blue, that's probably why a lot of people surround their pixel art with white lines. They both still look good.
