HATE WHEN THIS HAPPENS

General
I just saw a character design posted that was practically IDENTICAL to a monster Keelah design I've been working on FOREVER. FUCK. Like, same EXACT color scheme, similar stripes around the tail, and even the same "V" chest pattern. I am so bummed out, now I gotta scrap the whole thing. ;;_;; (Im not saying it was stolen or anything I've only shown mine to like 3 people, just awful coincidence.)
I've been trying to redesign Keelah for ages to use as a main sona, and I had finally hit on something I really liked. *siiiiiiigh* oh well. I'm gonna keep a lot of the same colors & elements because that's just what the character looks like, I just hope nobody accuses me of copying. *cries*
Sorry for the semi rant I'm just frustrated because I've been working on this forever. :(

I'm not bein' snarky, I'm serious (srs), if this is something you've worked on, and you enjoy its design, then go for it.
While there are numerous possibilities for character design, some ideas will occasionally overlap-this need not be tipped toed around out of fear of omfg you stole my fursona.
As, just ask yourself, were you influenced and drawing ideas/experience from other characters/nature? Did you create this design entirely on your own? Or did you carbon copy/make a few tweaks?
