That’s phrasing it lightly. At first I thought the whole body was traced, but as it turns out, the whole body is actually straight up copied from post #5509821, with some parts painted over. And I mean that in the “Copy & Paste” sense. You can even still see some artifacts from upscaling the smaller original image.

You are right. If you mirror and scale the pictures to the same height, you can see that the bodyparts go exactly into same position in the Y-axis. I was firstly just a little cautious, because I did not have time to check them properly, I just recognized the behind of the character.
