We’ve seen hundreds and hundreds of Muppet illustrations over the years, and it’s always fascinating to see how various artists interpret the characters. The art styles vary, but the essence of the Muppets almost always stay true.
Muppet fan artist Mike Boon (who you may remember as the artist behind the Muppet alphabet series) took his recent Muppet art project to the next level and not only found new ways to spotlight all our favorite characters, but to draw them in the styles of classic cartoons that perfectly match each one.
The end result is fascinating, and Mike managed to crank out over 50 illustrations, which he has generously allowed us to share here on ToughPigs.
If you dig Mike’s work (and I’m sure you will), be sure to follow him on Instagram and Twitter, or visit his website.
