Artist “Ruins” The Childhood Of Millions By Creating Unsettling Digital Versions Of Popular Cartoon Characters And Memes (30 New Pics)
Remember how we used to spend our mornings or days in front of the television, watching some great cartoons, eating cereal and trying not to laugh with our full mouths? Well, a lot of us have grown up since that time, and things get a little bit less magical and more ugly as our life goes on. If only someone would update our childhood heroes so they would fit our current selves more...
Miguel Velasquez is on a mission to make an unsettling version out of each and every cartoon character and popular meme that's out there. He does his magic by recreating these figures in the digital medium. Digital art lends itself greatly to Miguel's goal of making everything unsettling: high-definition graphics, realistic textures and many other things turn these characters into something that's a little bit too real and anatomical for sketchy animation figures.

This is clearly some new meaning of the term "real life" with which I'm unfamiliar.

I see the article title as "Artist “Ruins” The Childhood Of Millions By Creating Unsettling Digital Versions Of Popular Cartoon Characters And Memes". Nothing about "real life" in the title. Did BP edit the title?

OK, so someone whom has a deeply disturbed imagination created monstrous abominations of beloved characters from US cartoons. Not quite sure how I feel about this, besides having new nightmare fuel. If that was the intention, hats off to you, creator. Why so many have nipples, tho?

Sooo many nipples! A lot of there’s aren’t even mammals. Why would “real life” ones have freaking nipples? Very weird, but artistic licenses and all. 😳

This isn’t really what they would look like in real life, I think the title is wrong. It’s more like scary reimaginings of the characters

Assuming they "need help" just because they can draw unsettling things is incredibly specious and toxic. Many artists can draw disturbing things. Many authors can write disturbing things. Many directors can make disturbing movies. Would you say they all "need help" as well?

These are very well drawn but I doubt a lot of these would look like this RL, they would look odd but not nightmarish abominations.
