You seem to be using the term 'sexy' when asking questions. I'll use the term euphoric/euphoria/happiness as a general term.
And now time for me to break it down (no, I won't start dancing).
1. Expression - The guy has his eyes closed, but not tightly. This points out he's not in pain. In addition, his mouth is slightly upturned. He's enjoying it, but obviously not trying to express that to someone. In the original the mouth was simply open and the eyes looking at the sky. That mainly means surprise, to me.
2. The hands. In the original the hands are closed-fingered in one hand, and undetermined on the other. In the new one, one hand is feeling, the other open fingered as to simply hold it all. Closed fingers, like the first, on the belly area would have tended to indicate cramps or pain.
3. Dragonic features. In the original, you had really pointed toenails and no yellow doodads - it looked like he could be turning into a strange demon thing, something a lot of people may not want as much. You've made the end result more "child friendly"
4. Lighting. Simply put, it adds a magical/heavenly appeal, versus a - I-cantseewhat'shappeningtomeaaaaaa feel. You can clearly see all parts, independent of shadow.
5. Soda dispenser: You've made it more appealing, and more likely to attract kids.
6. Overall, the colouring went from a hard neon green and dark red to pastels, and that makes the piece less "angry" to the eyes.
