Why oh why????

I've decided to try and capture the idea what if Disney’s “Tangled” (a horrible name I must say, what was wrong with Rapunzel??? *Edit - Yes, I know why it was changed, this was a rhetorical question) were to be animated in the good old Traditional 2D Animation.
I took what I could find - at the time I posted this drawing this was the only production still available online. I also didn't find anyone else who did this at the time, so I gave it a shot.
I tried (with little success) to capture the style of Glen Keane (specifically from The Little Mermaid, cause Rapunzel is soooo Ariel), though I don't think I'm even worthy of writing his name here, less I am to draw in his style.
I took the background from the original production still. I'm not a background artist. If anyone wants to draw a collab background for this, send me a note (but no offense - you need to be at a Disney level, this need to look like a real frame from the movie).
Yes, I used reference. This was done to prove a point (maybe I'm the only one who is annoyed by this...)


I must share with you my feelings toward this movie, and I apologize if I’m blowing some steam here, you really don’t have to agree with me, that’s just how I feel:
This could have been such an AMAZING 2D movie! Good old fairytale and directed by THE one and only - Glen Keane. Just think about it - an ENTIRE movie in the style of Glen Keane!
And the hair!!!!!! The longest hair ever made in a 2D movie!!! (For those of you who know me, I have a fetish for long hair) Just imagine how it could move!!!!!! Like Ariel? Like Pocahontas? AH!!!!

BUT NO!!!!!!!! They HAD to make it 3D! (Eyes narrowed with a lot of sarcasm) Yes, 3D is the next thing... right...
Bluah! All the Art is lost! The style of the lines is gone! It just looks like a regular, a drop in the sea, 3D movie....

I had to go and fix some stuff, like the position of the neck and the feet. WHY DO I NEED TO FIX IT?????? It's a freaking 3D! And Yes, I had to fix stuff, they were just WRONG! I have to say I hate her feet, from what I saw so far in the trailer something with her feet is just not right. And what's with all the pink??? She looks like they took Ariel and turned her into Barbie! (hmm.. I have one of those... or 4...). Even Kida had red lines in her all blue outfit!

Yes.... I'm still going to see it with those 3D glasses or whatever.... It's Disney's after all


All in all I believe it turned out nice. I’m pleased.
I uploading quite a high res file for you to use as wallpaper and such. Do not use this in your art or something like that, unless you got an approval from me, k?
I'm guessing when there will be more details (and shots) from the movie I will do more fanart. At this point I need more details on the plot to get inspired.

Oh! And Flynn… I hope I got your nose right

*EDIT: OMG! Just look at the first ones: [link] I just now found them!! Why? T_T *sob* Why Disney? The drawings are so beautiful!

*EDIT 2: I truly respect each and everyone's opinion. I just wish to point out a couple of things:
1 - Before the movie was released all the comments were pro 2D and now, after the movie was released, suddenly everyone is pro 3D... Yes, I saw the movie, I still think if it were 2D it would be remembered 20 years from now, but sadly I'm sure this movie won't last for a couple of years.
2 - Please read this: [link] If my words aren't enough, then I guess you have to hear it from Glen Keane himself, and I quote: "the computer is like a used car salesman. It’ll always make you walk off the lot with something you don’t want".
So... ya...
