Stewie Griffin Untooned

Saturday, May 24, 2008


Stewie Griffin
[click to enlarge]

Gotta run this morning, but I'll post this and talk a bit more about the process later this weekend. One thing I'll say its definitely harder to get that "realistic" look with smooth skin. This seems pretty illustrated compared to Homer and Mario. Anyway, cheers, enjoy!

* UPDATE * I got a date on the Official Playstation Magazine UK magazine of Nico Bellic. It'll be on shelves June 16th, check it out if you're in the UK or somewhere that has it!

I loved this one o_O

His eyes, his mouth, his hair... and his hands. It's all perfect!!

Reminds me (a little bit) the Chucky doll from Child's Play ;)

Hugs!

The facial features sort of look like they're pointed the wrong way. It's almost cubist. I can't tell if that's the way the character is actually drawn and it's just not as apparent in cartoon form, or if it's something that happened in the untooning.

I think I need to see the original. Maybe set it as a mouseover, so we can flip back and forth.

Unapologetic - This is probably similar to the original.

I personally think it's awesome! I absolutely love them all!

Very nice job. I'll never watch Family Guy the same...

Anonymous said...

awesome, now we need Peter to keep him company

Anonymous said...

That looks really great! You should do Hank Hill, the facial features and lines are pretty much done already.

Unknown said...

Great job dude! You fuckin' rock!
Always looking forward to your next 'Pixeloo' ...thats what i am calling your untooning now.

Anonymous said...

lol that is too cool nice job

Anonymous said...

Great, now post a poll!

Fantastically disturbing, good show.

As Unapologetic and skizzo pointed out, the perspective looks off because the original drawing isn't balanced well. If that becomes an issue in the future, maybe consider adjusting a few elements to your own taste, rather than sticking so stringently to the base artwork?

As a suggestion for other toons, I think Dale Gribble from King of the Hill might be interesting to look at. Or have you considered any non-human characters? Timon and Pumbaa from Lion King might be neat as well.

Keep on keeping on.

Once again....amazing. Your work is awesome. I agree with the one guy above me. You should try Hank Hill next. That would be one heck of an untooning right there. Good luck on all your amazing work to come.

Impressive! I can't wait to see more. It's addictive, I can't wait to find out who will we see next? Fred Flintstone? Popeye? Elmer Fudd? a non-human maybe? Bugs or Daffy? Mickey or Goofy?

Adrian Price said...

Will you be posting a copy of Niko on here from the Playstation magazine?

Great job on Stewie!

Looks great, keep up the good work.

Great job ! You should make some classics like Captain Caveman or the Flintstones !!!

Anonymous said...

Nice this is epic, well worth the wait... And I agree with one of the posters... You should seriously do Meg Griffin, i never thought she was all that ugly, but lets see your take on her...

5 starts out of 5 *****

This is terrific!

I'd love to see some classic 'toons, like Betty Boop or Mr. Magoo done this way. Or, more contemporary ones, like Beavis and Butt-head!

Anonymous said...

Pretty cool, and well done. But it does kind of bother me that these pieces that you do are called "Untooned" when it isn't really "untooned" at all. They are just given more dimension and then a few realistic details, but they still look very cartoonish. I think it would be cooler if you actually tried to make what the person would really look like if they were a real person. That would be much more interesting to me.

But I'm not knocking your work at all, it's still very cool and you do a good job. Kudos.

Sylvain Racicot said...

Another good one! It was worth the wait. Stewie already looked a little creepy before, now it's more obvious... ;-)

There's already a few good suggestions in the previous comments, but here's another one; Dilbert.

Keep up the good work!

Cera said...

dude your work is so awesome. you´re a very talented person. congratulations. you should untoon Catz "all your base are belong to us" !!!! that would be epic xD

Anonymous said...

Wow great work, the head is realistic while the body is a bit cartoonish and off balanced from the face. Still nice job.

Anonymous said...

i agree with the anonymous guy above about the "untooning not being untooned"..... i think your best work so far is Homer and Mario..since they really have that "reallistic" look... on the other hand..stewie still is too cartoonish... it's probably the skin rendering.....gotta look for better skin samples.

good work though...

andrewQuintiliani said...

Definatly a more difficult subject than your previous ones, but I think this is a definate success! As you said, it's more illustative than previous, almost cubist with the odd angles here and there. Very stylized, but really great!

Can't wait to see more!

Also, I never noticed how creepy Stewie is....

As Don Patto pointed out he looks more cartoonish compared to Homer.

The reason I see is Stewie is a Toddler. He wouldn't have the same skin texture as aging would provide as with Homer. The softer the skin texture the less detail you will see. This gives him a baby smooth skin appearance.

Anonymous said...

That might almost look real if you actually considered that no human being has a head that shape

So basically, you took a family guy character and just added detail to his clothes. neato.

no. not really. sorry. lame.

Damn it frustrates me to see people knocking your work. Your work is great and I make sure I visit your website every other day just to see what else you will be bringing your loyal viewers. I don't have any suggestions for your next work, just keep up the great work :D

EEeiiaa.... I think this one is not as good as Jessica Rabbit or Homer.. The other ones are amazingly well done, I think Stewie is only well done... but eventhought, your uncartoon abilities and your work is INCREDIBLE!! (in spain: BRUTAL!)
Keep doing your stuff!!
(we wan more! :)
Un saludo!

I have seen Stewie before at Worth1000.com but this is definitely better. Here is an idea for your next untoon: Any Thundercats character. ;) I find it very challenging and would probably be amazing. ;)

Keep up the good work! I'm always looking forward for your next one.

This is way better than the one in the link you posted. Top notch work. I have never seen something so amazing.

Your work is always great and awesome. I really like it.
Also this one is a masterpiece of untooning. Though .. IMO you missed the point a little bit. The original looks more evil .. somehow. ;)
As mentioned earlier alrerady, the mouth is kinda weird/wrong. It isnt centered to the nose.

However. Doesnt matter that much. Thanks for the great picture and congrats for the Playstation Magazine date!

I'm seriusly AMAZED with your work, really, my respects!!!

Are you familiar with the works of Mark Ryden? This looks strangely like some of his work... which is really funny as he works the other way round, making "real" celebrities look more cartoonish...

Maybe you should do a character from a Japanese cartoon (anime) next, such as Sailor Moon. How's that?

Amazing work! Can you do Professor Farnsworth or Leela?

Ignore the fools who keep knocking your work and then say that they aren't critiquing, just admiring. It sounds more like jealousy.

Ursula W said...

Just a tiny critique: Maybe make the skin a bit blotchy. Babies have red noses and they always seem to acquire mysterious food crusties around their mouths. Well, at least my baby does. Anyhow, maybe adding some imperfections might help it untoon a little more. Amazing work, none the less!

Holy shizz, thats awesome. The Jessy Rabbit picture is my favorite.

Hard work kudos for you, my man.

Please, for the love of all that is holy, say that you'll do Harley Quinn. Due to the colouring and such, it would be hard, but I think you could do it. ;)
