Artist Uses Artificial Intelligence To Recreate Realistic Versions Of Disney Princesses
This is revolutionary
Disney princesses are usually drawn to look charming, polished, and just a little larger than life. That is part of the appeal, but it also makes it interesting to see how they might look with more realistic facial features.
An artist known as Toyboyfan took on that idea with a project called In Real Life, using artistic skill and artificial intelligence to recreate Disney princesses from scratch. The results are striking, and they give familiar characters a very different feel.
Scroll through the recreations and see which ones stand out most.
The artist explained how the recreations come together, starting with character photos and real-life references before refining the results in Photoshop.
