Those "Draw It Again" drawings at Deviantart

At Deviantart there is this small fad going on where people take one of their older artpieces and redraw them. It's a fad that never went away, because it is quite fun to do, if you're not just doing it to show off.

But what bothers me more is that often enough the new art piece hardly looks anything like the old one. Isn't it the point you just change the style? Not the pose, or add more necklaces and ribbons? When I look at these redrawn images I can't help but think "well, that was overdone".

Sometimes it backfires as well; when the old artwork still looks better than the new and "improved" one.
