When I was a kid, I had the DVD of Disney's Little Mermaid and of course my favorite character was Ursula the Sea-Witch. One can say that she was the only reason I watched this movie as I really didn't care about the other characters.

And of course a part of this was due to her insanely cool design. As a kid I always had a thing for "octopus-people", mostly due to the best villains of my childhood's cartoons being tentacled hybrids - from Poseidon's interpretation by "Mission Odyssey" to Bai Tza the Water Demon from "Jackie Chan Adventures". (There was also this one episode of "Moby Dick and the secret of Mü" which had a girl that turned into a deadly octopus because of some curse? I need to rewatch this)

(I also thing these two cartoon series might have done something for me being into large-shouldered black-haired guys... Anyway)
But the best part of having the DVD was one of the bonuses. Because one of the bonuses was a full gallery of the dozens of unused concept art for Ursula, and this was WILD. Like seriously: before they settled on her iconic design, the creative team tried not only all sorts of body shapes and color palettes, but especially tons of different sea creatures to see which one would render the best. And let me tell you, this can give everybody inspiration for their own take on the Little Mermaid's Sea-Witch. Just look at some of them, they're crazy:

rough animation of ariel in poor unfortunate souls before some changes were made (like the design of her top, as well as the overall shape of her face and body type)

Exploring star some more… if I were designing him I’d probably start with something like this. I love the idea of him speaking through pictures, but I also love him possibly using sign.
