Homer Simpson as a real human being is 100% pure nightmare fuel

James Dawson

An artist has created the most harrowing depiction of Homer Simpson you will ever see

Everybody loves The Simpsons, over two decades on from the first episode being aired it remains the go-to reference for anybody who grew up with it.

More than just a TV show, thanks to online communities and shit posting groups, steamed hams and dental plans have become part of the common vernacular – making the show feel as fresh now as it did in the early 90s.

But prepare to have your childhood ripped up, torn into tiny pieces and stamped on by artist Miguel Vasquez.

He’s reimagined Homer Simpson as a real human being and he looks like the sort of guy you wouldn’t trust as far as you could throw.

I mean, just look at the guy.

That’s the stuff of nightmares.

The 3D artist based in Ontario, Canada and his fantastic yet terrifying work includes bringing some of our favourite childhood cartoon characters to life as digital models.

He’s previously Ed, Edd n Eddy, Spongebob, Patrick, Mr Krabs, The ‘Still No Pickles’ Guy and Squidward from SpongeBob SquarePants.

You can find his full collection of work on his InstagramTwitter and Facebook pages.

But here are some examples of his work…
