Most of us love cartoons. They were a huge part of childhood, teaching us valuable lessons, taking us on adventures we could only dream of. Most of us also had a favorite cartoon character that we looked up to, wanted to be like. But have you ever wished that cartoon characters were a little bit more realistic? It can be hard to relate to someone with overdramatized features—huge eyes, a tiny waist, etc. Well, this artist, known on social media as Toyboyfan, decided to show us what well-known Disney characters would look like if they were realistic.
He created a project called “In real life” where he uses artificial intelligence and his artistic skills to create hyper-realistic portraits of well-known Disney characters.
“For these A.I. edits, typically I start off with a photo of a Disney character and a photo of a real life person who I think looks like said character, then I put the two into the A.I. program that I use to merge the two together. Afterward, the result can look a little funny, so I take the resulting photo and combine it with another photo and so on until I get a somewhat realistic photo that kinda looks like the character. Then I will take the photo to Photoshop and start making tweaks here and there to make it look even more like the character, like changing the eye color or refining the face,” the artist told Bored Panda.
