I Was Inspired By How Other Artists Reimagined Disney Princesses, So I Decided To Illustrate Soviet Princesses (8 Pics)
A few months ago, I got inspired by illustrations of Disney princesses made by several famous artists. I decided to start my own project about princesses from my native country. I think it is because I've been living abroad for so many years and I start to miss my own culture. All my illustrations depict princesses from famous Soviet animated films that are based on fairy tales, such as “The Snow Queen” by Hans Christian Andersen or “The Bremen Town Musicians" by the Brothers Grimm.
The aim of this project is not to create a better version, but to show the beauty of Russian culture in my own vision and style. Every kid from my generation remembers these animations from childhood. I believe that all these beautiful and kind stories make us better!

Frozen was very loosely based on the same fairy tale. This animated film follows the original fairy tale better.

Princess From "The Bremen Town Musicians”

Wait, where does the princess come from? There sure as hell is none in the original fairy tale (I just went and checked to be sure).
The princess is one of the main plot points in that fairytale.....The troubadour falls in love with the princess and at the end the two of them set off on a journey with the animals.

The tits in the first one are a nightmare, but I like how in the second the artist didn't shy away from showing nipples.

I love this version of Cinderella! It's so pretty and sweet. Your version is beautiful!
This is great! But in the original painting it looks like she has brown eyes, so why didn't you give yours brown eyes as well?
yes, it is just an illusion :) Please check https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5T6BeuIFv2A
