a lot of modern pig designs can be still traced back to inspiration from disney’s 3 little pigs

first of all, its important to see what real pigs look like,

right off the bat we can see that pigs are BIG. a peeve of mine is constantly seeing cartoon pigs as small, they really arent..

the biggest thing people mess up is the head shape and snout. a standard farm pig’s head is very triangular, its almost like a crescent really. but instead everyone gives them sphere head with a pig nose like a piggy bank. its really irritating. 

i honestly kind of enjoy the pigs from shrek because they were given pretty realistic bodies for once.

JOWLS. pigs can have some really pronounced jowls and fatty cheeks, i like the pig villagers in kung fu panda for that

and its also on the ladies which is good

another pig i like is napoleon from animal farm because they gave him canine fangs that pigs do have, i like him a lot

finally, VARIETY. there are countless breeds of pigs, not just american landrace, use them!
