toy story It is one of our favorite Disney and Pixar sagas. There are entire generations of girls and boys who grew up with these characters and who carry them deep in their hearts. Since long before we lived in this new era of rage for the systems of Artificial intelligence.
Everyone in their early childhood probably went through that fantasy moment where they imagined what their favorite characters would look like if they weren’t toys but real people.
Having this clear image was somewhat complex decades ago, especially due to the qualities of the character designs and the nature of their physical qualities.
But now, thanks to advances in technology and the creativity of the renowned illustrator and graphic artist Hidreley Diao it’s possible to get a fair idea of what the Toy Story cast would look like if they were real people.
If the name of Diao sounds familiar to you, it is because we have already shared his workwhere he specializes precisely in taking characters from animated series or movies, such as The Flintstones, to show us what they would look like if they were real people.
And now in this case he surprises us again.
This Is What The Toy Story Cast Would Look Like If They Were Real People According To Artificial Intelligence
If they have taken a tour of the official account of Hidreley Diao’s Instagram you will be able to verify that the gallery of cartoon characters to which he has paid tribute is extensive. So his series dedicated to Toy Story is not an isolated or recent case.
As we have already shared with you before, the result of these portraits is not the absolute product of an Artificial Intelligence (AI) platform, but actually the finished illustration has a high degree of intervention by Diao.
In broad strokes, the illustrator would feed the IA platform with the request to make the base portrait, which would serve as a starting point and initial sketch.
But the author would ultimately finish detailing some elements of the facial features, textures and expressions to give rise to the final and finished portrait.
As we can see, in the case of Toy Story the work required some special attention details:
As we can see, in most cases the portraits are not realistic enough to pass for being the portrait of an authentic human being.
But even so, the result is admirable because of how forceful the other details are.
