I made these illustrations. I know they might look a bit similar, but even if they seem alike, they’re actually different in terms of style and genre to keep the characters diverse. 😕😕
Really deserves to be rejected for similar content?

I think I would make these in to a sort of collection on one page. Have all those characters in one set that comes with that bush.

But that's just my opinion.

Check the forum to see that there are many complaints about this type of rejection. Adobe checks their whole database, not only your submitted assets.

And your assets are not different in style and genre.

Well buckle up. I'm close to nearly 300 such rejections, lowering my 98% acceptance rate to 88%.

The new guidelines regarding similar images do suggest these are very similar to each other. Adobe suggest submitting a max of three similar but still varied assets, and the top five especially would be regarded as too similar under the new guidelines. Or possibly even the original guidelines.
