Possibly because the sexually toned vampire-prey/love thematic is more enticing?

If I ever get to finish BD in any shape (I'm currently thinking it would be easier if I just finished it as prose) it'll end somewhere around the year 2008... Which means lots of family-related drama for Gwen.

For her design, maybe you can start with Gwen overall look (bun with stray hair, ears pendant, and twist the detail (negative color of Gwen, barbed or broken ear pendant) the curly hair look nice, but it doesn't help acknowledging the doppelganger as Gwen's. She look like a whole another character. You can also tried to make her ghost Gwen movement and position, and twist her expressions, it can turn really creepy to have a mirror image not entirely true...
