Real Life Disney

Post by Disney Duster »

Has anyone seen these?! These are incredible! Sometimes I don't think they look like the characters very much, sometimes they aren't in the right costumes or have the right length of hair, but they are all still absolutely amazing. I have to say, Kristoff is CU-U-UTE, and Hercules is DAMN HOT LIKE HOLY HELL:

Those are amazing! I had seen a few of the older ones on BuzzFeed, but I hadn't seen most of them. I was most surprised at Anastasia and Drizella; I had never thought of what they'd look like "in real life." So many of the guys are really hot (Eric, Tarzan, Shang, Naveen, Kristoff- whoa!) (Thomas and Dimitri have that '90s hair- yes!). 2017 Belle reminds me of Vanessa Hudgens a bit.

I’ve seen these before on sites like Buzzfeed. They remind me of an artist who used to post here... they did photorealistic interpretations of Disney characters, usually modeled on celebrities. I’ve wondered if this artist was the same person who did all those works? I can’t remember their username though. Ring a bell for anyone else?

No, it was a different artist, but I remember when David Kawena posted here, too.

I'm so glad you guys got to see the ones you didn't see before and are enjoying these! I was surprised he did Anastasia and Drizella, too. I could see some guys finding them hot.

UmbrellaFish, I wish I knew who that was!

the site is taking too long to load on my garbage laptop but Ive seen most of these on Tumblr. Though its annoying when someone points out what celebrity he used as a model and then you can't unsee it, lol. :P
