90s Cartoons as School Portraits

Fifty cartoons reimagined as realistic portraits with the help of neural-networks.

Using Artbreeder and Photoshop I’ve created fifty fake school photos. The portraits and clothing are inspired by obscure, split-second references as well as flashbacks / flashforward / dream sequences in 90s cartoons.

All characters are aged as if they were late High School/ University.

Inspired by Homer Simpson’s High School yearbook photo.
