Finnish artist Jirka Väätäinen has done an amazing job illustrating what Disney’s most iconic villains would look like in real life!
Väätäinen’s work re-imagining these characters is a combination of digital compositing, photomanipulation and digital painting and it was commissioned by Disney Interactive which amusingly describes that, “If the Disney Villains existed in real life, ominous laughter would echo throughout the world, nefarious plans would go wrong left and right, and there’s a good chance eggs would be in short supply (looking at you, Gaston). Thank goodness the power of art allows us to experience this without well, experiencing it.”
We can’t wait to see more of Väätäinen’s work! See the villains-gone-real here:
