statusactive_shortfilm: The official STATUS: ACTIVE posters are here and we love them so much!!! A huge thank you to our dear friend Baptiste Rogron for these epic designs. Baptiste is a visual development artist and character designer who has worked for some industry giants such as Disney, Dreamworks and Netflix. He was so generous to do this for us. If you would like a poster signed by Baptiste himself we are putting a limited run up on Indiegogo!!!
Do you have the art of Eugene and Rapunzel with their baby? Rapunzel has long hair again and Eugene has a full beard.

Do you think these two look similar?
I don't think you're looking at accurate representations of those two characters. For one thing, the top one is a fanart (yes, by one of the show's animators, but fanart nonetheless).
The pictures you should be comparing are
It's difficult to say just how similar they do or don't look, since the ghost queen isn't colored with a normal palette. We know she has dark hair, but how dark? Is it black? Is it auburn? Is it Edmund's shade of brown? What color were her eyes? What was her skin shade? What does her mouth look like when it's not contorted open with wicked fangs? She seems to have bowed lips, while Eugene's mom does not.
Eugene's mom's hair is clearly longer and fuller, and her part is on the side while the ghost queen's is down the middle. They do have a similar face shape and possibly nose shape (though that's also hard to tell, since we only have the one picture of Eugene's mom).
Anyway, I would chalk that up to a physical similarity to people of a certain nationality (in this case, "Dark Kingdomian" or whatever), plus an animation/art trick of using similar shapes to tie things together. You want to make these two women with bit parts (at best) look like they're from the same place? Make them look similar.
how did the animation for the characters work in the show? because sometimes they look like 3D models but other times they don’t? was it a combination or something?
It was a combination, but the animators at Mercury Filmworks are just that good! It’s primarily 2D puppet animation. The hair and stuff is usually extremely well-done rigs. The hand animation is mostly the special effects.
There’s a specific department that would lock in what the characters looks like in unusual or extreme positions - Baptiste Rogron posted a bunch of his stuff on Instagram - and the animators at Mercury used those models to make sure the rigs were accurate from every angle.
