Ya they do look odd, but i think it looks fantastic. It's a specific animated look and has been achieved with great success. It looks sleak and shiny and of the highest quality. Retouching has many styles, and it comes down to if it works, or not. These def do.

I quote (god knows who - maybe my old lecturer many years ago):

"The success of any image is directly related to time spent looking at it"
