New Image from Disney’s Upcoming Animated Film RAPUNZEL

A new image from Disney’s upcoming 3D computer-animated film “Rapunzel” has just landed online.  That’s right: computer-animated.  Even though the image above appears-hand drawn, it’s non-photorealistic rendering technique so the surface looks like it’s painted but there’s still the depth and dimension you’d expect from a 3D computer-animated film. The movie’s visual style is being based on French Rococo artist Jean-Honore Fragonard’s painting “The Swing”.  Hit the jump to check out the new image where we see Rapunzel apparently enjoy yellow circles and bondage.
