I think my biggest issues with these models is that the eyes are just, slightly too far apart. I feel like putting the eyes a little closer together would do SO much in making them look better for such a simple change!
If the eyes were slightly closer and slightly larger, and the muzzles were just a bit more pronounced, it’d look perfect to me. Ironically enough, both of those changes would bring it closer to Imalou’s previous work, such as this beautiful piece:

You can switch filters without logging in and you could specifically search for explicit images. But I don’t think random people are going to do that.

Only if you enable other filters, which requires registering for an account. And I don’t think they’ll waste time doing that. Besides, with my filter, it took 7 pages for me to find the first one.

You mean the movie and the G5 series will featured only new characters throughout G5? Just like when the Beast Era only features the Maximals and Predacons throughout the Beast Era?
@Background Pony #6A0C
Series can change a lot between seasons (Jake Long, Shimmer and Shine, Winx Club and the original Ben 10 series) and still are considered part of the same universe. G5 and G4 still are in the same universe, despite changes!
@Background Pony #6A0C
Sadly, the synopsis of the episode says that it’s still in Equestria, but many many years after Twilight’s reign ended, so it doesn’t really have any connection to G4 other than that it takes place in the same universe, and the old characters are a part of history, but that’s about it.

Hold up, so their cutie marks only appears on one side. Then G5 probably doesn’t happen in G4 continuity, it’s too big of a change in the characters appearances to be handwaved

The other thing that bothers me is that they made the cutie marks only appear on one side of the pony in order to make it more consistent with the actual toys. Now this is something that I remember seeing Imalou expressing her disappointment with on Twitter too, but I feel like this part in particular was a form of corporate meddling, as if it would kill the multi million dollar toy corporation to paint two cutie marks on the sides of their pony toys…
But otherwise everything looks pretty great, ESPECIALLY the Manes! My god those manes look so good.

The art style for the g5 movie looked really similar to Imalou’s art style and I wondered if they had anything to do with the production, and turns out they actually do, so hey that explains it.
