Smurfs in real life

Heh!  For all those born in the eighties, I am quite sure that the Smurf cartoons have a soft spot in their hearts... awwww!!!  So, did you see the movie?? I personally haven't but, I found on the net something that might give those blue imp loving eighties babies something to fawn over ar maybe at least think about...

An artist, , Nate Hallinan, conceptualized how the smurfs will look in real life!!!  He gave this a real once over and a real long thought before he started to make his rendition.  His reasoning, I'll post it as it is:

    "The Smurf is actually the result of a symbiotic relationship between two organisms. We believe  that Smurfs put their 'embryos' in the button of a developing mushroom. From a distance, Smurfs seem like they are wearing a hat and pants but as you can see this is a fallacy. The fungus provides camouflage and protective epidermal layers for the creature, while the creature provides nutrients and mobility for the spreading of spores.

Smurfs are believed to be a hunter gatherer society. As you can see, this little guy is returning from a successful venture. It is generally difficult to spot a Smurf; they are very apprehensive and cunning. Sadly though, it is rumored that they are hunted for their medicinal properties. It's hard to determine but it is thought that there are not many colonies of Smurf left."

 Personally, I think this guy has way too much time on his hands but I just cant shake the feeling that he got it dead to rights.  Oh and I also I think that he succeeded in his goal...  given his reasoning and stuff...
