The Creature, but make her a baddie ✨

Some scrub ass man got the credit for the design of the creature for decades when it was really designed by Millicent Patrick, an accomplished Disney animator and the very first woman to work in sfx makeup.

I always thought this design was SO GOOFY, but he's actually a really well done sculpt. The level of detail in the hands gets me especially. AND the whole thing was durable enough to be worn in the water without being damaged!
