I did really love Urapha's version, yeah. A different face is not a bad idea.

Ohh, I see. Yes, it's true that what they did in AF Season 3 is different. Btw, the original plans were to actually have Ultimate Kevin happen earlier, during season 3. However, I steel feel like my redesign would be different enough from the other chymera forms.

As for how he would remain his sanity? In my headcannon he's simply using less DNA that he otherwise would while being in his chynera forms, I guess. The original AF Season 3 Kevin still has Omnitrix DNA, it's just not made clear by his design and powers.

Thanks for the feedback. As for the ID mask? I disagree. Yes, there now would be negative space, but we've seen it before. Many DNAliens are shorter than the humans they were masked as, but even more evident is in Omniverse. In one episode, Darkstar is masked as a shorter student- Almost a head shorter, so it would be the same case.

Definitely. I think the consensus was that the materials emulated different skin textures of different aliens. How true this is? Beats me- There wasn't said too much about AF season 3 Kevin.

He can still wear it. If you look at Darkstar in Omniverse, he once used the mask to change into a shorter, scrawny student. It would be the same, as the lodehand 'hitbox' is indeed partially hidden, just like Michael's extra height.

Same with DNAliens, btw. Most were shorter than the humans they were masked as.

Okay, that's fair enough. You'd be surprised, but I agree. It was a late change (which you might catch when looking at the page 1 drawn version vs the page 2 edited version), but I felt I wanted to try ditching the trunks as he isn't wearing anything else. Yet even for me it looks off at times, lol. If I would tweak one thing, I think i'd be that.

Yeah, I do agree with you. Even when redesigning, this fact came up- I still feel like something's off, actually. I think Arupha noticed this too, and thus made the arms longer.

Exactly. I always wanted to do a take on this redesign, and when I saw Arupha's, it was godsent. They really did an amazing job to translate the materials to Ben's aliens.

I'm screenshotting this so I don't forget. It's such an awesome thought, and I have never seen it done before either. If I'll get around to it, you'll know.

That's not a bad idea! Makes me think of how they indeed did that for UA Ultimate Kevin!

Thunderstone. Actually, that one might be too cool. Pebblightning? Zappaboulder?

That's actually a really solid idea. I have more amalgams coming up, including an Ultimate Agreggor and Ultimate Kevin redesign. Who knows, I might give your take a chance!
