I’m sure you’ve seen those awesome “untooned” images, where some talented digital artist created a photo-realistic version of a famous cartoon character, depicting what they would look like if they existed in real life. Here’s a collection of the very best of the best.
There are tons of untooned images out there, so I used the following criteria for selection:
- They must be high quality, high-res images.
- The depiction must match or come close to the true proportions of the cartoon character.
- It must be photo-realistic. Nothing too cartoony.
- With one or two noteworthy exceptions, no video game characters or anime. Cartoons only.
With no further ado…
