Artist Imagines What Kids' Drawings Would Look Like In Real Life And The Results Are Both Hilarious And Terrifying

Tom Curtis runs MediaCom Advertising UK. He's also a father of two who previously went viral for using photoshop to bring his sons' drawings to life.



Back in 2016, Tom and his oldest son, Dom, went viral with their Instagram @thingsihavedrawn.



Tom used his Photoshop skills from when he was Creative Director for MediaCom to turn Dom's doodles into more realistic images.



This was Dom's original inspiration piece.





This is Tom's recreation.





In an interview with Adobe, Tom was asked how the project was born. He said,



"I always loved Dom's drawings and thought it would be a cool thing to do. (It's since become a nice alternative to Minecraft and Wii). The original idea was to make all the drawings really creepy, but Dom kept drawing animals that were more happy than creepy. I think what we've achieved is a bit of both. We live near a zoo which provides a lot of inspiration."



Since their viral success nearly two years ago, the father-son duo has since included drawings of the youngest son, Alistair. However, @thingsihavedrawn has grown even more substantially and are now global.



They came out with a book. The book features the doodles of zoo animals by Dom and Alistair, with recreations by Tom, of course.



They also now make some drawings come even more to life animation.



Here are some of our favorites from Dom, Alistair, and Tom.












The boys' drawings even got used in a music video!





And to celebrate their 250th post, they decided to begin posting an alphabet of drawings, starting with A and B.





C, D, and E...





...and F and G.





They are currently looking for things they have drawn starting with 'J'.



The internet is in love with the Curtis family's creations.













What an amazing way to foster creativity in children!

Dem Rep. Offers Brutally Accurate Reason For Why He Can't Understand 'The Mind Of Donald Trump'

Massachusetts Democratic Representative Seth Moulton made a fitting observation about President Donald Trump's mind after Trump gave a 20-minute address to the nation about his war in Iran on Wednesday evening.

Trump claimed “core strategic objectives are nearing completion” in the Iran war and vowed to strike Iran "extremely hard" over the next two to three weeks. He said that he would finish the job "very fast," without setting any timeline for ending the war. He pledged to "bring them [Iranians] back to the Stone Ages, where they belong.”

With the United States set to host the 2026 World Cup, a video out of Dallas Fort Worth International Airport is drawing attention for a very different reason: showing a man ripping apart an Iraqi soccer fan’s banner and telling them, “Don’t come to America.”

The video, posted on Instagram, shows a group of Iraqi sports fans standing in an airport holding a banner with Arabic and Spanish writing. The fans were there to support Iraq during their World Cup qualifier against Bolivia, which resulted in a 2-1 upset victory earlier that day.

Videos Of Squirrels Trying To 'Vape' Are Going Viral—And We Don't Know Whether To Laugh Or Cry

Some viral videos come along that leave us unsure whether we should laugh or cry. In the case of squirrels trying to vape, crying is unfortunately the more likely outcome.

E-cigarettes have dramatically increased in popularity in recent years and are often even portrayed as a cool accessory on social media. Unfortunately, disposable, one-time-use e-cigarettes have been made affordable and easily accessible, and instead of properly disposing of them, people often leave them on the ground like cigarette butts.
