Czech Artist Creates 'Anatomically Correct' Skulls of Your Favorite Disney and Childhood Cartoon Characters

Czech 3D artist Filip Hodas turned childhood nostalgia into something a little eerie, and a lot more interesting than a standard museum display.

Instead of painting cartoon characters in bright colors, he imagined what their skulls might look like if they were real creatures, then gave each one a scientific-style name to match. The result is a set of “cartoon fossils” that feels equal parts playful and unsettling, with familiar faces suddenly looking like they belong in a natural history exhibit.

His Behance page has the full project, but the standout pieces are below. Read on.
