>>114745021As an artist, is hard to describe, but it tends to be stuff like expression and line of movement that gives life to the character. A great example is old vs nu SpongeBob, the newest has a more defined line and is "better" in terms of commercial quality, but he looks more stuff and rigid than old SpongeBob, color also affects this too, when it gets too bright it tends to look more soulless.
Old vs New family guy is also a great example, exactly the same designs but the lines, the expressions, the colors and the way the body is structurated makes one look boring and Soulless while the other looks full or life.
