Artist Uses Artificial Intelligence To Make Cartoon Characters Look Realistic (30 Pics)
Once again, A.I. remakes make an appearance on Bored Panda. This time, we have a wide array of characters from all kinds of universes. From the beloved Frozen, to the classic anime Death Note, to the Cartoon Networks star Ben 10, you will be able to see what the main characters of these animated series would look like if they were a little more realistic.
The artist known as Darky Artist on Instagram decided to try out this new technology combined with their skills in Photoshop. The result is quite interesting. The artist told Bored Panda: "I have used a tool called Artbreeder to generate the base images, then edit as per requirement using Photoshop."

I agree- she also has two completely different earrings and one of them looks like it is melting.
Load More Replies...Darky Artist has another Instagram account where she creates all sorts of drawings, portraits, and edits. She draws simple but colorful illustrations and hopefully will continue to learn and develop on her artistic path. The artist seems to really enjoy Disney, anime, video games, movies, and TV shows.

Oh my f*****g god...STOP CALLING THIS GUY AN ARTIST! He uses a completely FREE website called ArtBreeder and barely photoshops anything. He's claiming a complex AI's work as his own when he barely did s**t, so stop praising him PLEASE!
It’s not that easy. It’s not like you put the picture and be like “computer make this ai”. It takes an amount of work, or else everyone would be doing it
Load More Replies...BRO! i didn't realize that until you commented it but he totally does!!

I mean like she's real but like at the same time fake and this is a couple picture download20...97-png.jpg
Actually, I have a friend who looks JUST like mulan... This image is pretty, but I still think my friend is mulan reborn lmao. don't come after me pls
Playing with A.I. is something that many artists do these days; it will probably be a big part of art someday, but for now, it's time for experiments and seeing the potential it can have in the future. They might seem a little wonky, but keep in mind that the technology is still in development. Darky Artist tried to edit the remakes a little bit, but probably didn't want to edit them too much, so that you will see what A.I. can do currently.
Esmeralda From The Hunchback Of Notre Dame
Pocahontas
I can literally see her saying "if you mess with me, I will slit your throat." She looks badass!
Actually, this picture is incorrect. Native women (like me) are darker skinned, have more prominent cheekbones, wider eyes, brown eyed, and black haired. Also, the real Pocahontas was 12 when she met John Smith
the article says they ran the cartoon image... so yeah the cartoon was super incorrect but again it's about a cartoon made more realistic not really about portraying the real Pocahontas
Load More Replies...If you mess with her she going to say don't touch me or don't play with me fat ass
There have been many posts about artificial intelligence here on Bored Panda. It's no wonder, because nowadays, almost every facial app has it. Are you interested to see more of Disney characters made to look like real people? Or perhaps you would like to see recreated historical figures? Or maybe you would like to be creeped out a bit and see A.I. create people that don't exist?
Merida From Brave
It's the program the guy uses that tries to make realistic pics from cartoons, it sometimes has troubles with chins as you can see on the Mulan picture so in short guys a fraud that uses some other peoples AI to get reactions on the internet
Load More Replies...Uhm no, merida has a childlike wide face and lots of freckles, not this hottie redhead
So why is she all aged up and "sexier" now. It was refreshing that Disney had been moving into more normalized and relatable body types and facial features, but then everyone has to sex it up to look "better". Ugh
Since when does Disney and their 400 feet wide eyes ever make relatable and normal facial features? EVERY Disney face has painfully large eyes, always upturned, and tiny button upturned noses and pouty lips. Name one from the last 20 years that doesn’t.

Yep I think the person who created all of these imagines have a crush on merida
What do you think of these edits? What characters would you like to see recreated? Tell us in the comments and vote for your favorite cartoon character remakes! Don't forget to go show some love to the artist on their social media page. Please be respectful towards each other and stay safe!
Tarzan
Barbie
If she were real, she would be around 8 feet tall. What do i do with this knowledge? ;w;
Based on what? Barbies are 1:6 scale and about 28-30 cm, that would make them 1.80 m max. Oddly proportioned, but not taller than humans...
Load More Replies...I'm saying like she kinda looks like Barbie but like at the same time a different person but I must say 10\1
She looks like that blonde actress that looks like all the other blonde actresses. The Margot Kings.

So weird the way people act like this about drawings of cartoons.

Rapunzel From Tangled
Kristoff From Frozen
he looks a little like zac efron from high school musical troy bolton probably just me
Nah kristoff has a bigger jaw, round nose and overall kinda dumb looking but adorable
Snow White
I like this picture, but It doesn't really look like snow white to me.
Pretty much spot- on, I think, but she has light brown eyes.
Jack Frost
Anna From Frozen
This is my favorite one. She looks like a real person more than the others. You guys just don’t like it when they don’t have Bratz dolls features.

I'm probably going to get downvoted, but...this one looks a little misshapen, to be honest
Thats because they're done on free websites like deep dream generator or artbreeder... they're not "art" :/
Load More Replies...Sorry but shaggy looks a little bit Asian or just a little bit misshapened.
Prince Phillip From Sleeping Beauty
Realistic = an acne scar, a mole, a wrinkle when they smile, hair that is subject to gravity... But that's just me.
I agree, but with the program the artist used, you can't really do that. Would LOVE that, though.
Load More Replies...The only thing to make them look more human is imperfections. That’s the beauty. ❤️
Stop praising him. All he did was use Artbreeder. It's a free AI website that's super easy to use and takes minimal effort. It's actually really fun to play with, but it doesn't take skill. At all.
These are pretty cool and I'd like to see more of them, but I wish they'd been shown with the cartoon image included.
Is it a coincidence that cartoon characters in real life are all to a person movie star good looking?
Almost as if they were purposely drawn that way. Almost. As. If.
