I think it will be pretty tough getting the characters to look right. The proportions on Dink characters are very realistic, and the characters look 3D. RPG Maker on the other hand has very short looking, big headed and more cartoony style character design. Due to the way RPG Maker is designed though, it may be hard to get around the RPG Maker style of short characters.

I know it would look wierd at first, but it will probably be easiest to draw it in the RPG Maker style and not the realistic Dink style. I think there is a good chance that the tile-based look would conflict with the effect that the realistic Dink proportions would give.

Now I wonder how Dink characters would look like in RPG Maker VX style.

Edit: @DackFight:

I think his goal is mostly just to make a different realization of Dink's main game. It won't play very much the same and will likely appeal to a different audience, mostly. In the process he will likely expand upon the story, because Dink is designed more like Zelda (with a less intrusive story) whereas RPG Maker favors traditional RPG gameplay which has a bigger focus on story (Think old Final Fantasy, or Dragon Quest games). As for basically calling Dink main game the Bible, that got thrown out the window when Seth decided that DMODs should be possible.
