Will colonists ever look different/more detailed in the future?

Somewhere I remember Tynan saying that the design of the pawns could be changed if he finds someone who does a proper design rearrangement for him. He only said that the colonists will never be more detailed or have more information on them.


Here I found it. If he stays true with his words the colonists may look different in the future:

QuoteIt looks a lot like Prison Architect. What's up with that?

Blame my (Tynan's) lack of art skill - especially with characters. I made the character art you see in the trailer as a stopgap, and borrowed the Prison Architect style because I'm not a good enough artist to develop a new one. They were never intended to be final. With this Kickstarter, we'll be able to get a real artist who can sit down and develop an original style for RimWorld.

Why would you think a really old quote is more overrides what he's said recently in the first page of this thread?

I'd prefer it if he was still open to making improvements, but he's gotta set his priorities as he thinks is best.

Because he didn't. I indirectly quoted him too. In this thread he said the colonists will never have a higher level of detail. He never said that the design wouldn't change. You do know that he is changing design for other stuff regularly anyway? Just look at the changelog.
