This Is What Cartoon Characters Would Look Like If They Got An X-Ray. Hilarious And Horrifying!

Have you noticed that every cartoon character is drawn with exaggerated figures –  oversized heads, big eyes, and squat legs. They look like distorted human body from which they are derived.

But what would the skeletal structure of these oddly shaped characters look like? Artist Michael Paulus has drafted detailed illustrations to create interesting skeletal system sketches of these popular cartoon characters for his series, “Character Study.”

Michael wants us to better understand the anatomical absurdity of these characters by creating a different view of the physical distortions we might have not noticed in our iconic cartoons.

And the results? They are both hilarious & horrifying.
