(Englisch alert)
I was thinking what could make this style less…scarier? Or better less generic? But not like full redrawing no. Only minor improvements. Changes Production studio may accept. I got an idea smiles are partly responsible for that. Pony obviously don't have noses. They have a snout and smile is a part of a snout. Maybe?
But after i thought no manager will do anything. Or rater do nothing. We are not the target audience and this style isn't bad as sonic was. They probably have half of tell tale series done by now. I gave up.
So I give these thoughts to you.
