This was part of the final from one of my classes. We were assigned to redesign a Disneyland attraction. The goal was to affect the guests' mind in the opposite way that the original ride did. I got the teacups.

It was almost too easy. The teacups are a safe, moderately exciting family-fun ride. Se we decided that the opposite would be to make it, well, unnerving. No biggie. I immediately pointed out the lovely American Mcgee's Alice as an influence, and off we went.

My part of the project was to redesign the characters for the ride. I picked the Hatter (obviously), Alice, and the Caterpillar.

These first three I kept at least reminiscent of their Disney designs. The Caterpillar was very fun. He ended up somewhere between a sad clown, and an aging drag queen.

The second three designs, you can find here: [link]

The mad hatter is awesomely drew by you! You didn't change anything in his face to make him look... "sexier" . "Au contraire" you exaggerated his face and he looks so much more realistic!

This is an absolutely wonderful take on Alice in Wonderland!
Your technique is amazing and I love you 're-interpretation' of the characters!
Fantastic job!

I love both of the versions! They're unnerving in a wonderful wonderful way. ...Of course, Alice in Wonderland has always been a little bit frightening anyway. ^.^ Great job as always, though. I'm gonna fave them both.

I really, really like this Alice, even more than the darker version in the other picture, I think. The way you've made her sort of off-kilter and creepy without adding much that's traditionally dark is very clever - just something in the sway of her pose and the look in her eyes gets across everything you really need to, and that's awesome.

XD I love these! They're incredible the way you've redesigned them, and they'd definitely unnerve people!

Haha this is best picture ever. All three characters look mad, my favourite would have to be Alice though!
