In case you are unaware, Carol Berrera is a character that exists. She replaced Edna Crapable after her in-series death. I am saying this because I did not know that until a few minutes ago.

Does anyone else dislike the over-designed Simpsons characters?
Like the ones with extra detailed articles of clothing, more oval-ish eyes and sort of realistic-ish shaped noses.
It's especially a problem with guest stars where they're playing themselves and not a character and it's so distracting when you put them next to Homer who has a very simple and clean design.
Nah I get you. Using OPs pic as an example, there's even muscle definition whereas a classic character would probably just have the cheese-stick limbs
I actually did know that one, it was probably the last Simpsons news I read before her death. It was kinda weird because it was happening back to back, and the writers kinda shot themselves in the foot with that one.
The weird thing is though that her voice actress had her desease for quite some time before her death, which the Simpsons staff supposedly knew about, and even with the production cycle of each episode in mind (about a year) that was a weird call. Maybe it was actually intentional, and they wanted to give the character a nice send-off before the VA would die, but it is still just so weird to me.
Yeah, the overdesigned clothes bother the hell out of me, and have done so for a good while now. Can someone do a photoshop or mockup of her without all the different pockets and stuff? Just to see how she would look like in classic Simpsons style.
What even is that thing at her calf? A scar? It doesn't look like a scar.
12 hours in paint. How is this? Should I do the shoes aswell? Might try the face too.

I think it's supposed to be muscle definition?
Look, obviously the older Simpsons characters have simpler designs because they come from a time when you not only had to hand-draw every character but then paint them on cel. Digital allows them to have a bit more detailed on characters but it still looks odd when they're standing next to characters from the older era.
This same kind of style-clash problem doesn't really occur in Bob's Burgers for example.
God I miss Edna. Did they give her death any kind of story or just killed her off-screen?
at what point does the character designer look at her and tells himself "yep, that's totally how a teacher would dress" ???
I've been watching the current season and have never seen this character; I'm gonna assume that she doesn't appear much.
