Deviant art member Justin Turrentine re-imagines the endings of classic Walt Disney animated films and illustrates what the outcome would be for the victorious Disney villains.
The graphics are morbid and heart-wrenching if you firmly believe that evil-doers should never win; especially when it comes to loveable creature movies. Turrentine depicts Ursula from The Little Mermaid sitting down to a peaceful dinner where Flounder, Sebastian and Scuttle are the main course. Another tragic illustration depicts Cruella de Vil with the coat of dalamations that she fought so badly for in the movie. She stands there gleefully, with all the poise of a divine aristocrat and a puppy head at her sleeve.
Justin Turrentine's victorious Disney Villains are expertly drawn and interesting to look at. Be warned, they may pull at your heartstrings.
