Ursula Broadway Redesignby ~justin-mctwisp

DescriptionDetailsShare
So, this is a bit old... But, here is my redesign for Ursula's octoperson form.

Not crazy different from the actual broadway design, but in my eyes it's an improvement.

I feel that they were ALMOST there with some of the designs and Not-even-close on other designs.

Lovely- I like how the tentacles drag and you see the suckers. I feel ya on your words, maybe Disney will make a big theater house at one of their parks one day and re stage each show. Or at least the Little Mermaid and re-vamp it all.

too skinny. I wish the Broadway was beautiful and luscious like the original Miss Ursula.

Well, in my mind large hips are more seductive than a large waistline.

To me, animated Ursula's larger lower body (I never saw TLMoB, thank god) was intentionally meant to closely emulate the 'head' of an octopus in addition to having tentacles. That she appeared overweight to our eyes actually reenforced this, and that way she wouldn't have awkwardly been a beautiful woman atop an oversized lower body (which would have looked more ridiculous, IMO).

She was right, though- I find Ursula's body language and how she cleverly manipulates people more intriguing as a character than the fact that she is simply an 'overweight' cecaelia.

What works for animation doesn't always work for stage. The few larger waisted Ursulas of smaller theatre productions looked lovely but were stiff and had no movement to them.

As per your comment to the ridiculously over sized lower body: the scale to which this is drawn would address that issue. It's drawn on a 9-head scale croquis, the head to crotch is 4 heads height while the crotch to ankles are 5 heads in height (an actual person is closer to 4:4 or 4.25:3.75.
