This thread is strange because it is in the art section and we are asked not to comment on the art. I assume that the question you wanted to be answered is,
"Does the eyes and hair-style match the personalities in the cast?" The following is the answer to the question:
Follow: In order to answer the question meaningfully I would have to guess the intended hair style and personality. For follow I guess that you are trying to have a guy version of
Rei. When hair covers the face or the eyes, it gives a sense that the character is hiding something. It is assumed that Follow is hiding his affection from the leader. In other words, he enjoys being in the background, like a stalker. His low-maintainence and somewhat undefined hair style also highlight the idea of him wanting to be unnoticed, and that he does not care much about his own appearance.
Bunny: I am unable to interpret your intention between the hair style and the personality. The previous posters actually described her pretty well, and a cheap one at that. I don't think that was the intention. To make her more attractive I suggest making her elegant, mature, and with seductive eyes. Her appearance should suggest to the player strongly that she has an extravagant (sexually extravagant, but high class) life style. The player might mistaken that she is easy, because her eyes always look as if she is seduced by the player, but nothing ever happens. The idea is to make her unattainable, yet seemingly within reach.
Skew: According to your protrait, I assume that you intend a
braveheart hair style. I think that this hair style is too free for him. Skew is about being superior, feeling that he is better than the others. And his sense of superiority comes from what he ability to manipulate. It is sensible that he is a perfectionist, and perfection cannot be achieve without manipulation (it is not about following the nature or the flow). Therefore he would manipulate his own hair, and be conscious of it. He likes things to go according to his plans, and his hair style would be wheather-proof, maybe tied in the back leaving few stylish thread in the front. Yet Skew is never satisfied, there is always more hate in him than he could revenge, and that leaves him eyes with never-ending vengeance, that can only be broken by the player.
(example) Lion: His hair is missing in this version. But there was an earlier version with braveheart haircut. I think that you didn't draw his hair because Skew took it. The free, natural, and curvy hair suits Lion, because it highlights his determination, conviction, and his sense of responsibility and duty. He is a protector of a way of life, and his sense of pride comes from his certainty that he is doing what the nature intends. Unlike Skew, Lion believes that perfection comes from following the way of the nature, therefore the free, natural style in his hair.
Kitten: I think the intended Kitten is innocent and cute. The eyes you chose is not cute, and the hair style is at the margin of being fashioned. It is unclear what values the magicals believe in. However, in general, her style should adhere to those believes to the tradition. A general feature at her age would be discipline, which can be symbolized by braids (that was why she had a braid in original concept art). She is at an age of transition, therefore her appearance should show the confusion, uncertainty, and unpreparedness. For example, she would dress in the cute way that she had always dressed, but it became unappropriate. When she tries to dress like an adult she doesn't look right either. And at times she gives up in frustration and her braid is only half-done.
