Jirka Vinse Jonatan Väätäinen is a graphic designer and illustrator from Finland who has a unique way of looking at Disney villains. Last year we brought you his realistic renditions of Disney movie princesses, and now he's back with a decidedly darker project just in time for Halloween.
As you can see from these scarily lifelike pictures of cartoon characters, the Finnish creative has brought to life a number of Disney's most fearsome villains as part of his ongoing 'cartoon characters in real life' series. Using a combination of digital compositing, photo manipulation and digital painting, Väätäinen adds a creepily realistic dimension to such antagonists as Cruella De Vil from 101 Dalmations, Captain Hook from Peter Pan, Judge Claude Frollo from The Hunchback of Notre Dame and a whole host of other famous characters that we all love to hate. Take a look at some of his cool drawings, and don't forget to vote for the best!

I was teased all through elementary school by kids calling me Ursula the ugly sea witch because of this. I didn't figure it out till many years later.
