The problem is, you can't just throw out random statements like that without any kind of argument to back them up. Right now, your comment on the animation says, "Animation is pretty great in getting the look of both Barks' comics and Milt Kahl..." How on earth does it do that? I don't see Barks OR Milt Kahl in the animation in DuckTales '17. Please offer specific examples of how the animation accomplishes what you claim if you want us to take anything you say seriously.
Also pictures to back it up: suspendersofdisbelief.tumblr.com/post/164623392721/when-you-realize-the-new-dt17-style-for-adult
Is showing pictures and footage of Milt Kahl good enough for helping support the idea his animation influenced Ducktales?
Granted interviews with art director Sean Jimenez may have influenced that comment too.
What you're saying about Scrooge and Donald's clothes doesn't even remotely equal "the animation looks like Barks". They just borrowed some color traits from the comics in general. So what? When you say the animation looks like Barks, everyone will assume you mean the drawing and design style looks like Barks. And it turns out THIS is all you were thinking about... some clothing colors for Donald and Scrooge. Oh well.
On the other hand: yes, there are some basic similarities between the design in DuckTales '17 and Milt Kahl's Ludwig Von Drake stuff. (This is especially noticeable in the early teaser "Donald Duck's Tales", which I think has better animation that anything I've seen in the show.) Still, though, I feel it's pushing it to say the animation in DuckTales 2017 looks like Milt Kahl.
