    One thing I love about Cerise's design is her silver accesories in all of her outfits. Werewolves' biggest weakness is silver, and her having it in all her clothes can be read as her trying to hide her wolf heritage (and most likely harming herself in the process cause of the silver), it's such a very small yet cool detail in her design

    SPOILER AHEAD!!
    Though I agree that the fur in Daring Charming’s design makes him look top heavy, I like to think of it as a bit of foreshadowing that he is in fact destined to become the beast in Rosabella’s story.

      EAH S4 SPOILER ALERT

      As someone who saw Season 4 of EAH many years ago, I can confirm that Daring's destiny is to be the beast (Rosabella's prince).
      P.S. The fur coat design comes back in season four for the "Epic Winter"

    Ever After High and Monster High were the main things that got me into art and character design. I love the nods a lot of them have to their stories. Thanks for reminding me of how good these designs are, I need to start using them as references again! I especially love the wonderland kids, when I was younger, I thought Maddie's teacup hat was so smart and to this day I love Lizzy's heart hair, since that was kinda my introduction to silhouette.

      @@reapergirl2529 Gen 3 seems okay, but the differences from Gen 1's lore make it almost impossible for me to enjoy it. It's top bad they can't exist as alternate universes that continue adjacently rather than one being cancelled and replaced.
      As for a young adult remake: I'd be game for it, but sering how Netflix did Winx Club frustrated me SO much. Granted, WC relied on a storyline while MH relied mainly on concept, but even so, many fans I've talked to feel uncomfortable seeing their childhood characters being aged up anr involved in spicier, more violent situations. In my opinion, aging up a kids' show works best when you use new/original characters to avoid controversy. Of course, you run the risk of losing the spark/fun if you replace the OG characters.

    As someone with glasses, I would like to hear your opinions on Ginger Breadhouse and Rosabella Beauty as they are the only two girls in the show to wear glasses. In fact, it's somewhat canon that Apple wears contacts instead of glasses because she thinks that would ruin her beauty. I just wanted a doll that was considered beautiful and wore glasses at the same time to break that stereotype of glasses = ugly, and I think these two, especially the latter, do so.

    • @tomatosoup1304

      Honestly it's because of that reason those two dolls and characters hold such a special space in my heart. Seeing two POC girls wearing glasses being considered beautiful, kind and talented instead of having their personalities being centered around their intelligence and nerdiness is so refreshing. Especially in a fashion doll line.

    I kind of wish that Cupid has short hair so maybe the animators could’ve done more/have the wings stick out in the design more. Also because much as I love Ever After High the show has very few short haired characters and that could’ve been a fun difference to have Cupid stand out.
    Edit: also I know Cupid was in Monster High but just saying generally

    • @carrie-us

      YES!! THISS!! the cupid design originally showed off short curls and i think it would look so much cuter. PLUS, we only get two girl characters with short hair, bunny and poppy, and their hair is super straight and flat. it would really out to have cupid with curly, short hair ❤️

    Most impressive things with the designs are how they are so busy and detailed but never distracting.

    Well the art design of the characters were REALLY for the DOLLS … while the show animators were given license by Mattel to change the design a bit… I believe the animators once mentioned that Apple and Raven, as main doll characters had to have their outfits most faithfully to their doll versions and if you look back and compare to a dozen outfits designed for Apple and Raven in the show they all were very much like their doll counterparts … it was a good show but unfortunately Mattel canceled the show right after it’s last doll character introduction and not much longer after the dolls were canceled as well, sadly

I love Maddie and Kitty's hair and hats, Lizzie and Raven for their color scheme, Darling and Duchess because I was into historical clothings at the time and their hair is very Rococo inspired, Briar and Cupid because I'm a sucker for pink. The Evil Queen has one of my favorite designs, she's perfection for me. Her gown, her headress, her armor in the battle scenes. She also has a version with her hair down, and I would've love to see that.

He also doesn’t love Genshin designs so I think that checks out. That’s his opinion and his style and of course I respect that but I’m excited to see a review with someone who does like some of the designs and will explain choices 😊 (I also know that you won’t like all of them either but it won’t be a general design dislike but particular outfits)

    Something I like about Cedar Wood's design is that she actually has puppet joints like her father Pinocchio and the wood designs on her arms to her hands and legs. Also I agree about the nose, because of Pinocchio's nose growing whenever he lies, and the piercing I would give to her is the pointy one like the punk-rock design to just remind of how pointy her nose would be if her nose grows whenever she lie like her father. Also talk about her heels' soles?! IT'S AN ACORN LIKE SCALE DESIGN! Would love it too if the tip of her nose is a little bit pointy.

    Based on my knowledge of the EAH not only as a cartoon seires but also as a brand, I can confidently say that all the "concept art" you have featured in this video is actually 1)official character renditions in one of the few art styles E.A.H. team has featured via products, promotional material and EAH's web services/games (One of the most prominent palces to find this type of art is on the back of the dolls' boxes) and 2) fan art that was made witht he effort to emulate the orginal offical art style ( I am specifically refering to Hopper Croakington II artwork here. I 100% remember it being a fan work I have seen either on Tumblr or Instagram. There may have been more fan art in this video I have not noticed but I doubt it).
    NOW, THERE IS OFFICIAL CONCEPT ART ON THE WEB AVAILABLE FOR VIEWING, but not a whole lot of it (with some images being poor quality in oreder to avoid any reprecutions from Mattel).
    Here is the link to an image from PInterest that features what is presumably concept art for 4 orginal characters (Briar, Raven Maddie and Apple): ru.pinterest.com/pin/298222806546201062/
    In addition, here is the link to another image on Pinterest (with the artist's link) that features fanart and official concept art for C.A.Cupid's orginal doll design from the Birthday Ball doll line:
    pl.pinterest.com/pin/763571311817583007/
    I also need to mention the following:
    1) The available concept art is most likely offical doll designs (based on most of them looking similar to Birthday Ball doll design in terms of execution).
    2) It is unknown to me what material (concept art, doll designs or somethign else) has been sent out to the animation company to work with when it comes to creating character models for the show. Maybe show designs were done in a collaborative effort with Mattel. However, they were for sure created independantly from the official character art (the one you refered to as "concept art" in this video). EAH doll designs tended to be more detailed comapred to the official art because the latter was often made based on the final products (in this case dolls), which underwent budget cuts and design changes. That is why, for example, Darling Charming has her official artwork look so different when comapred to the show design. It was based on the doll, not the cocnept art/doll design (from what I am aware of).
    4) Show designs may include some artistic liberty, deviating from doll designs/concept art. Why do I say that? Well, there are also character spread sheets and show assets available on the web, among which I found a rendition of "Daughter of Rapunzel" that looks nothing like Holly or Poppy O'Hair. It is unknown if the character design in question was made based on anything (and during what time it was made) but it is sure very differnet from what we got and is said to be a "test design".
    5) There are likely a lot of concept artworks/character designs that will never see the light of day. For isntance, there is the official EAH stop-motion short that looks nothing like what we have seen after the official EAH launch back in 2013 (In it the characters also look way different from what we are used to. It truly makes you wonder what EAH was originally planned to look like and what alternative looks were designed for the characters).
    Lastly, I just wnat to say that I hope this did not sound rude. If it did, I apologise cause I did not intend for it to be that way.
    Hope this information was found useful as well)
    P.S. I am not a native english speaker so excuse me for any mistakes in this comment.

      I also have to mention an interesting point about official EAH art by using Kitty Cheshire as an example: while official art tends to use final dolls as refrences, there may be some changes during last production stages that lead to dolls looking slightly different even comapred to their official art. Kitty Cheshire is a perfect example of this. Her "core series" doll (the one that wear the outfit Kitty most of the time has in the show) is missing her arm warmers, all while the the box art features them as part of the look (which means they were meant to be included). The doll also wears a black ring, but the artwork on the box features the ring in grey.
      (Even more interesting is that a leaked doll design for Kitty has purple skintone and some othere differences, when compared to her look in the show. The EAH character design process is truly somewhat disjointed between Mattel and Guru Productions)
      There were also a lot of doll re-releases when it comes to "core series" so in some cases it is unfair to compare the dolls to the art. For isntance, only one wave of these dolls featured Apple wearing her black stockings (which I find shameful to be the case cause they add so much to the look).

    You know, I think Daring having Red apple gems in his crown would indicate he’s Snow White Prince, in comparison to Dexter, who has no gems and no story.
    Then maybe Daring will change the apples to roses because he became Rosabella’s Prince.👑🍎🥀🌹

    "I don't know what to do for the shoes."
    that's the exact problem I trend to have when designing characters which is probably why the main character of my story doesn't wear shoes. ( well that is not the only reason there an actual story reason for it ) but my lack of shoe game probably contributes to that issue. To me Blondie registers more like the daughter of Alice then Alister does as her son. I brought a blondie doll all so I could redress her as hinaichigo from RozenMaiden because I had a outfit of her laying around. Rapunzel is german for lamb lettuce so I wish the O'Hair had more of a vegetable theme to their design. In the original fairytale when Rapunzel's mother was pregnant with her she had a lot of vegetable cravings so they could have used that as a factor when designing them to make them more interesting compared to the more floral themed princesses. Also it would have been neat that since the fairytale is Germanic German fashion could have played into the design for me. Again I think it would have helped their designs if they did this. Cinderella is a French fairytale so just like how Rapunzel is German they could have incorporated some French elements into Ashlynn design to improve it. For hopper I would have given his design a pond motif with varying shades of green, blue, and possibly a little bit of pink. I feel like Hunter design maybe should have been Camo or had Camo elements or simply could have leaned into him being a hunter a lot more. Give him a more athletics design.

I’m so glad someone also appreciates cerise and Lizzie’s designs as much as I do they’re just stunning. I do find it funny how like most of the wonderland characters are put in really great

    You know, looking at Darling, it always bugged me how MUCH her hair just is. I mean, EAH hair in general is a lot, but with her it just looks like her head is elongated due to the hair in the show. Also, why couldn't her armor have been golden? I mean, gold is the whole thing of the palette of the Charmings...

      The hair always bugged me too! It always seemed so inconvenient but I suppose it's a good disguise and the silver could be her setting herself apart from her siblings and show her Rebel alignment (since Rebels tend to be represented by silvers)

    I just want to say that as someone who knows literally nothing about this show or the toys every design you said "you don't even need to know who this is supposed to be because the design is so obvious" I had literally no idea what they were until you said it. I thought goldilocks was another alice in wonder lands. I thought the swan princess was cruella.
    And then you said "idk if I'd immediately guess repunzel" and that was the only one I immediately recognized.

    okay, when i was little my favorite design was Cerise Hood because of the tartan/checked pattern on her shirt and her awesome boots.
    now my favorite is tied between Dexter Charming and Allister.
    Allister: because i am a sucker for the blue clock design due to my love of Doctor Who.
    Dexter: because it turns out i'm transmasc and what i thought was Childhood Crush vibes were actually Man, I Wish I Was Him vibes

    I'm confused about your Cedar ranking to be honest cause everything about her screams marionette. From the outfit to the woodgrain paterns. Also it's not screws on her joints, its the hooks where the strings are supposed to attach. And her body also has woodgrain, and the limbs have lines to once again indicate that she's a puppet

    I absolutely ADORE Courtley! One thing that I think made her 100x better that I was hoping you'd mention was how her mouth is longer and more prominent than the other characters. It makes her more expressive, and I think her facial design wouldn't work as well if she had the same mouth as the other girls

    17:45 for me personally, I don’t really like Hunter’s design because he literally just looks like a regular teen boy. In that, if the show did not tell me he was the son of a fairytale character, I would just assume he’s some random dude who isn’t affiliated with any fairytale characters.
