haha. i think the buttercup one you posted in your post was the most interesting of them all.
Those are pretty cool and in some cases creepy.

It always seemed to me the powderpuff gang were just basic geometrics with slight skewing, so can't say I am impressed.

Unique find, thanks!
It's interesting to see how in a few of them the skeleton retains the same style/personality as the original toon.
i would hazard thats partly because the original is next door as well as how we mentally point towards the personality of the original and apply tht to the skeletal form.
there was an article about an exhibition with Michael Paulus' work in the cartoonbrew.com website sometime ago. here's a link to his website!http://michaelpaulus.com/gallery/character-Skeletons
Fascinating stuff!

It only works for a minority of them, and the setup is consistent across them all.
