Carter’s designs for Despicable Me appear to have been especially faithfully referenced in the final 3D models when compared to some of the other films that he has worked on.

Shrek’s final designs didn’t reference Goodrich’s design work as strongly. Goodrich’s Shrek designs (along with William Steig’s originals and Mike Ploog’s development art for that matter) are all more funny and likable than the designs the film ended up with.
