I'm going to sound like the old lady I RP as but...There is something I really love about Striker's design.
Its not his height, not his eyes, not his color, not his tail, or charming smile.
It's his Duster Jacket and the uneven stitching.
I laugh and grin every time I see it. Striker is his suave, swashbuckling, cold blooded cowboy for-hire- killer. He's brimming with pride and confidence. He has aires about him. Everything about his outfit looks intentional to carry that bad boy, modern cowboy look. That giant worn hat, fitting vest, his slim fit ripped denim pants, that color pop with his bandana and his slick knee high boots...
But then we have his duster jacket. Look at it. You have a beautifully tailored cropped jacket with a nice lapel, dark cuffs and brass buttons but the hem of his jacket, looks like he hand stitched the dark bottom piece on just so he could have the cowboy buck skin tassels! Look at that uneven stitching!
/ / | / X/ X X | / X He's got diagonal stitches, vertical stitches, and cross stitches going on! They aren't even! They definitely DO NOT look like ornamental stitching.
Sure it's likely an animation thing its not a high detail, but the inconsistency of the stitches every time I see him on screen just makes me think: this cowboy nerd had an old duster with the buckskin tassels that he liked so much that he cut it off, and sat on the steps to one of his train cars, while waiting for his beans and bacon to cook, stitching the hem on by hand and pricking himself the entire time.
Sure, sure you can argue that that's not the case because the inner lining doesn't have stitching inside, but I can't help it, its too fun of a detail.
Sure he's got that old western feel, that poncho of his is probably hand made, but it does not have the uneven stitching of his crop top duster jacket and it brings me great joy. Cold blooded killer, musician, poor AF cowboy nerd.
Look at the stitching.
I'm such an old person for enjoying this stupid detail.
