Seeing it on a computer screen rather than my phone, I'm pretty sure now that it's mainly the Popolopoï that I find uncanny in that scene above. Did they just invert the texture colours? They look really wrong.
Ly herself looks OK-ish, though they could probably darken the shade of her clothes slightly. Looks like a similarly cheap edit, probably to increase the contrast because somebody noticed that she looked naked
Saint Brigid's Day was 1 Feb, but I can wear this for the rest of the month, especially since I can't enter it in the SOTM!

I guess it's all about the context. While she looks fine like that in the middle of a brochure page, she looks very wrong in the middle of that pirate bastion (as do the blue Popolopoï). Maybe it's just because I grew up with the Western version, but that picture just looks really off to me.

In some pictures her face looks very different:
I was just referring to her in-game appearance, not sure why she looks so different in this artwork. I think she looks off in both cases anyway.

According to this video, the japanese Dreamcast version depicts Ly in a different way than the japanese Revolution version:
I really don't know why they felt the need to change her design again in Rayman Revolution.
Oh, I see, then the artwork you posted is actually identical to her in-game appearance in the Japanese version of Revolution, while my screenshot is from the Japanese Dreamcast version of the game. I had no idea there were too Japanese Lys, this is even more confusing now.
In any case, I can't seem to find an in-game screenshot of Ly from the Japanese version of Revolution, so this would definitely be a worthy addition.

There is this screenshot that was shared on Twitter, but the quality is not the best:
The Dreamcast Japanese Ly looks a lot better to be honest, I have no idea what they were thinking for her Japanese Revolution design. I'm almost getting Tily vibes thinking about it, and I may even argue that it's worse than Tily.
This is the Dreamcast version, which doesn't look so bad in comparison:

I don't see one of these Japanese Dreamcast ones on RayWiki under Ly's article, unless I'm just blind.
