I swear, I love Monster High as it is, seriously, one of the only doll franchises I've ever given two shits about. BUT if it were directed at adults, we could get gems like fully wolf Clawdeen being caught by her human neighbours and explaining herself like:
"I'm going to a convention."
"Oh, what character are you going as?"
"I'm...a furry. It's a furry convention. This is my fursona."
Rough sketches of alternate outfits for the Nightmore Night episode, since my buddy @oakwyrm got disappointed they didn't use the opportunity to put them in winter-appropriate and species-appropriate clothes. He also provided ideas for how to dress them and it got me really inspired! so credit to him! :3
Cleo is also here because two of my friends complained she wasn't.
Clawdeen and Clawd aren't as bundled up as they could've been given that they're covered in fur.
Drac, Cleo, and Frankie doesn't need to bundle up given the entire undead thing. Hence why Draculaura is wearing a skirt and Cleo is in an indoor jacket, though Cleo will need to prioritize staying dry.
Also Frankie has a metal leg so they're not taking any chances.
Lagoona is freezing her fins off because she's cold blooded.
Heath doesn't need the bubble-vest at all but i saw some concept art where he's wearing it and I liked it for him. He's a glowing a little dimmer by the cold and growing spots but he's fine.
Abbey wears her fur and a light jacket because if she's wearing the exact same thing on the Himalayas as she does in shorts-weather monster high I would assume she'd overheat.
I understand why the showrunners chose not to rig 7 new models for only one episode, when they're not even selling dolls with the outfits, and how they got around it by having the characters not plan to pack warm clothes.
But still, as someone who has lived her entire life in the arctic I have a pretty strong opinion about cold-outfit character designs.
