What Disney Animals Would Look Like If They Were Humans

Though the animals we see starring in most Disney movies are easy enough to associate with, many of us still often imagine them as people, sometimes even putting ourselves in their places. Pugletto, an artist in Wisconsin, takes this a step further by re-drawing those characters as she thinks they might look as humans, also doing her best to preserve what she thinks might be their ethnic backgrounds.

She told Cosmopolitan that she “got really frustrated about the amount of Simbas with white skin and flowing red hair. The way I see it, is The Lion King is a story that takes place in Africa… [so] I reimagined the characters as humans the way they would look if they were from Africa.”

The Lion King isn’t all she drew – check out more of her art below!

Exploring artistic interpretations of beloved characters is a fascinating endeavor that spans across different fan communities.

While Pugletto uses their talent to personify Disney characters, the idea of translating animated personas into human form resonates similarly in other fan art circles. This reimagining allows for a creative platform where iconic figures transition from one world to another, highlighting the versatility and depth within their original designs.
