Finnish graphic design student Jirka Väätäinen has been creating a collection of illustrations that gives us a vision of what Disney princesses would look like in real life. These have to be the best I’ve seen over the years, as they look lifelike while staying true to their animated selves (e.g., Belle’s cocked eyebrow).

I like books, gadgets, spicy food, and art. I dislike shopping, hot weather, and the laws of entropy. Although I am a self-proclaimed computer nerd, I still have a love for handbags and makeup... and I am always teetering on high heels. To learn more about me, visit the "About" page.
Wow, those are incredible!!
I second Amanda. I’m curious as to how she creates these pictures. Belle is my favorite.
Belle is my favorite too (but I may be biased since “Beauty and the Beast” is my favorite Disney movie). And I think that Jasmine looks like Kim Kardashian!
I thought the same thing! Jasmine looks like Kim Kardashian and Ariel looks like a young Sally Feild.
Wow! I love these. I’m impressed how well he was able to make the hairstyles into real hair!
Those are the best portrayals I’ve seen too. Thanks for sharing!
wow those are amazing! i had the same exact thought about jasmine looking like kim kardashian.
oh the nostalgia! these are awesome and spot-on!
These are remarkable!! Wow!! I really wish I was artistic. I think artists aren’t ever compensated nearly enough for what they bring to this world. (Sorry I haven’t been around much the past week! It’s been a nutz week with little time and internet.. I read every post though.. =) )
It made me think of the illustrations on the cover of the Babysitter’s Club..
Pocahontas is a stone cold fox!
Aurora looks like Sharon Stone. Sort of odd.
Sleeping Beauty=Kim Basinger, Meg= Kate Walsh and Pocahontas= Tia Carrere
There’s also Amanda Sefried as Rapunzel, Maggie Gelenhal as Jane from Tarzan, Michelle Trachtenburg as Snow White…They are photo Manipulations
