Winnie the Pooh
The first film adaptation of a book about Winnie the Pooh Disney belongs: in the early 60-ies was issued several series about a funny bear and his friends. Before beginning work on the domestic "Winnie the Pooh" Fedor Khitruk not seen the Disney version.
However, he wanted to move away from images that have been portrayed in the book to create their own new and original characters. Of course, he did. All those who have seen and Disney, and our options, clearly speak in favor of the latter.



Curiously, the original Winnie the Pooh was very shaggy, his ears look a little "chew", and his eyes were of different sizes. Piglet is first prepared from artists like thick delicious sausage. Many were drawn by a variety of teddy bears and pigs before the characters acquired habitual to us the form.



By the way, in the second and third series of drawings of the characters have been simplified: black "points" on the face of Winnie the Pooh took shape, and ruddy cheeks Piglet have been designated a red line.
While working on the cartoon about Winnie the Pooh Khitruk Fedor did not know about the existence of animated films about fun bear Disney.
