Have your characters unintentionally looked like other characters?

[abigaillmartin]

Also another comparison was my character Eric Stanford he looks like Shawn Spencer from the crime comedy show Psych! That show was a huge influence on this comic so I’m even more flattered!

Psych is one of those shows that are just so good!

I’m a huge fan lol.

Anyone else a Psych fan here?

I guess Myrrh from bitwam looks a bit like Sao from Sao and the Glow of Memories by @river121693 ... which was not intentional at all, I swear

All apart of our planned Tapas multiverse 🤫

I ended up changing this character's design because I was like "Uh oh, she looks like Mabel Pines" and I could not unsee it.

Mr. Blueberry with his hair down looks like Dr. Kiriko (Black Jack) but with a bad sunburn.

[DasIstWunderblyat]

I could not remember who told me or if someone told me. I can kind of see it (despite not knowing who TF is that)

Plus he looks like a god damn emoji 🧑🏽

Basically any pale blond bastard with long hair

Other instances of this are with other people's own characters (not characters from established IPs), so naturally I will not post it here. Plus some people do not take it well when you compare your characters to theirs.

Also, not a fictional character, but I have heard remarks (directly or indirectly) that he kinda resembles Dave Mustaine

I don't intend, but the coincidence struck hard on my main male protagonist. I presented the illustration graphics of my novel to many of my ghost readers and they compared it side by side with Archer.

I don't see any resemblance there. How come they could make such a comparison?

Furthermore, it is not one, not two, but more than three of my ghost reader tells the same comparison. What's happening here? (@-@)"

A crossover sounds amazing!! That sounds like a fever dream! 🤣

[abigaillmartin]

Gravity Falls is LEGENDARY!! You should feel flattered your character looks like Mabel!

[kyupol]

Claudita looks like Dakki from Houshin Engi. Different personality though

[NickRowler]

I was worried people would accuse me of copying her tho. She wears a skirt and a pullover sweatshirt, so they have somewhat similar styles. My comic also takes place in a mountain area with pine trees. Tho in the Appalachian area, not Washington state.

By sheer coincidence I once drew a guy I'd never met. The whole time I was sitting there not sure where i'd seen him before, pulled out my sketchbook and there he was.
On the flip side, I found a drawing of a person who looks like me. In a way it's like free fan art.

I have seen people try to compare Rilind to some crappypasta characters so I made this a long while back:

[LunarScyphozoa]

Uh.. that takes place in Oregon?

[NickRowler]

My bad, Oregon is right next to Washington, neither of them are where my story takes place.

[Kelheor]

I can't say anything myself about other characters, but we got a couple of comments on how Eugene looks like Cartman and Gil reminds of Kenny, which I find absolutely hilarious, because they really do! maybe I need to draw this AU one day lol

[lizardlullabye]

A few years ago, I made up a character for a challenge. Someone commented she looked like Connie from Steven Universe. That was kind of nice -- I like Connie.

[KSlinger]

Does Jesus count? >_>;

[Kelheor]

@KSlinger lol yes also he's completely perfect

[abigaillmartin]

yes yes he does. Eric also potentially could look like Jesus if he grew his hair and beard

[abigaillmartin]

Love it 🥰 hahaha it’s cute

I think this is the closest for 'small cat + big fat cat' if there's a trope. (from anime movie 'Life of Guskou Budori')
