Artist Shows How Cartoon Characters Would Look In Real Life, And The Result Is Scary And Disturbing (14 New Pics)
87Kviews
Cartoon characters from popular TV shows usually remind us of some warm memories from childhood. Remember when you used to sit on the sofa on weekend mornings and watch cartoons on mute before your mom caught you not sleeping? Well, I should admit that I did that every weekend. Ontario-based artist Miguel Vasquez seeks to distort our feelings about these cartoon characters with some reality twists. He creates realistic renditions of famous cartoon characters that might even disturb you.

Handsome Squidward
Miguel Vasquez takes famous cartoon characters and turns them into creepy and disturbing versions of people that we wouldn’t normally see on TV. At least not as cartoon characters for children. He makes them look sinister, twisted, and scary. Not something you would wish for your children to see on Sunday morning.
Rick
The artist loves to bring his renditions as close to reality as possible, giving them many human-like flaws and imperfections. Wrinkles, uneven skin tones, belly fat—it’s just a few features that make them look like real human beings. Although there’s something about them that makes them look unsettling. The kind of people that you wouldn’t want to meet on the street.
From such cartoon characters as Marge and Bart Simpson from all-time favorite TV show The Simpsons to Patrick Star and Squidward from Spongebob Squarepants, to Rick and Morty from the show of the same name, and even video game characters like Toad from Super Mario, this artist will soon have recreated every famous character out there! And if these are not enough, we recommend that you check out his previous posts here and here on Bored Panda.

Marge Simpson
Wtf have you done to Marge! Her boobs don’t sag and her clothes actually fit properly.
Maggie Simpson
Why are the Simpsons shown s really old? Maggie is a baby. Is this supposed to be what they look like after being on TV for 20 years? Not right.
These are all terrible. Going more for the shock factor I think.
These "cartoon characters in real life" posts are always fucking terrible. It's like they're all following a rule that dictates that they be as ugly as humanly possible.
John yes
exactly
John good
YEP!

These are all needlessly grotesque, and the Simpsons characters seem like a desperate plea for psychological help.
Yep. This is the sort of crap you see on YouTube.
IKR?!?!
This artist is 100% trolling with us by trying to make them as terrifying as possible.
What the hell did I just look at? Ima need to sleep with the lights on tonight...
Miguel Vasquez should take his meds.
I WILL NEVER SLEEP AGAIN
most of these are not close to the cartoons, and instead just monsterfied versions of them. all of the simpsons looked like something out of a horror movie and didn't fit the actual body shapes of them, their faces were twisted and their skin was wrinkled.
I don't like this. 😥
OMGosh these are hilariously scary!
God I'm so sick of these! Cartoon characters aren't supposed to look realistic!
Don't worry, these don't!
maswartz good
These are exaggerated renderings of the characters. Still very interesting!
Why does that post have so many dislikes?
horribly fun!
Don't quit your day job, Miguel.
Clever graphics but they don't look 'real life' at all or in several cases , much like their cartoon counterparts. So you're left wondering what is the point?
Not fair to the Simpsons and what's with sticking nipples on everyone? except in Anime i dont believe cartoon characters ever have nipples

These are awesome! I wish there were more!
It's a beautiful day outside. Computers are burning, holy water is being used, and on days like these... creatures like these... should be burning in hell.

Flower Boy no
I'm shook right now.
God damn it they dont even try to make them pretty
I thought these were rather cool!
Creepy!
Thank you, I hate it
I'm scarred for life!
This is art. Art is different. This artist is doing what they like, and I think that their art looks really cool.
Crazy how many down votes there is! These are brilliant and dark. Love the style man, not all art is 'beautiful'.... I see talent.
They look like they belong in Monsters Inc
Good technique. Gross execution. I need to go wash my eyes out. And possibly vomit. If they were going for the repulsive, they nailed it.
My innocence is finally, irrevocably dead. As of just now
As realistic as a cartoon :/
Terrible awful
Of course there has to be at least one other PSYCHO-in the comment section...you, allison chambers
No and just no
Make more please these are so funny
Up voted you, you were only expressing an opinion. Frankly I find these horrifically fascinating
Upvoting you as well. I like these, but that's cause I like monsters and creepy things ^^
Way too exaggerated!
Those were just awful. There is drawing talent there, but not of known things. Make up your own monsters.
Gotta say, though, I find these to be horrifically fascinating, could not stop looking, and from all the comments with each, everyone else felt the same. Up voting the post for goals achieved
Kinda like being unable to look away from a horrible event
omg these are so NASTY and CREEPY!!! WHY?!?! So glad they got many downvotes-hopefully it stays that way, but maybe not. none should ever be upvoted
This "artist" needs psychological help, very disturbing renditions of cartoon characters no likeness at all
Massive fail on this artists part. They look nothing like that as the actual cartoon character. It makes no sense to turn them into something they aren't. What was this person thinking?
Stephanie Keith yes
These are creepy and weird. They aren't depictions of these characters. This is more of seeing how far in the opposite direction he could go. Down votes for this one. Not saying he doesn't have talent because he clearly does, but puke. These are awful.
It seems the artist's drug dosage was increased after each pic.
