Cartoon Skeletons in Your Closet
You’ll never look at a cartoon character the same after visiting this site. Michael Paulus has taken the opportunity to study the underlying skeletal structures of some of the most common cartoon forms we’ve come to accept today.
As you can see from the photo to the left from his site, he’s gone to great detail to really determine what the actual skeletal system would look like for a cartoon character.
Many of them look almost ape-like with the larger heads (common caricature feature) than the body.
These Icons are usually grotesquely distorted from the human form from which they derive. Being that they are so commonplace and accepted as existing I thought I would dissect them like science does to all living objects - trying to come to an understanding as to their origins and true physiological make up. Possibly to better understand them and see them in a new light for what they are in the most basic of terms.
I decided to take a select few of these popular characters and render their skeletal systems as I imagine they might resemble if one truly had eye sockets half the size of its head, or fingerless-hands, or feet comprising 60% of its body mass.
He even reminded me of one of my favorite characters growing up, Shmoo!
