I totally agree with you there! The first anime sticks with you and doesn't go away no matter what. It's funny how that works.I took a look at both versions, and I'll say this is a good redraw!The anatomy here is more controlled, and the abs are more condensed (people tend to space this area apart too wide and looks a bit strange)The shadows behind the wings are more pronounced, and make the wings have dense mass.The "chip lines" add a nice touch to the work, and add a nice homage to his specialty as a tech engineer.Lastly, yes, he's one DAMN fine tough man!
