Low visual nitpick

Barrel also makes you naked waist down.

 

I think that is because those feet are part of the skill sprite and not a transparency layer or your actual char sprite unequiped. Its really strange to have your skin tone set into another. Maybe if the legs were made as something closer to shadow partners's sprite style they would be more fitting for all.

Sorry for the engrish hehe hope its understandable.

 

Yeah, it's because of Neckson's Barrel skill sprite...
This bothers me so much and it's even more visible while doing barrel-cancels, since you can see your whole character naked with white skin for a few frames.
Also, if I'm not mistaken, some chairs with animations (like the one where your character sits and plays guitar) have this problem as well.

I find this a very clever idea! But in any case, if necessary, I am willing to help develop the appropriate sprites for each skin tone!
