edit: thanks guys for your suggestions! I'll be going with the second version ^v^ - - - hello guys this cat is definitely not important and definitely has nothing to do with Gens but let's hypothetically say that this little guy is important and is for Gens then which version do you prefer first version was the original, but after coming back the next day I thought the darker stripes didn't really match the palette. So, I doctored it (as I'd merged the layers earlier because I'm dumb) and tried a color that matched the palette better. But you guys are the judges here. Just vote for your favorite lol and if you'd like, share some constructive feedback because I am a newbie at designing and I would love to improve hehe
