I'm a recolor...

...and you assume I make false claims of complete originality? Psh. There was a time when Mario and Luigi were recolors of one another in most of the video games that they both appear in. And the monsters in Final Fantasy 1? There wasn't much space for a number of sprite designs for the same reasons as with the aformentioned Mario games. Now go paint yourself all pink or something. It won't hurt as much as you think it does.
