    Everyone Is Pretty Horrified By The New Prince William Royal Portrait

    "I can honestly say that I've shat better portraits."

    Yesterday, this new royal portrait of Prince William was unveiled by artist Dan Llywelyn Hall.

    But it seems the internet has quite a lot of emotions about it.

    Really sweet of the Royal family to print out bad Deviantart fanart & call it a portrait <3 http://t.co/SGyi844bKF

    WARNING: this frightening portrait of Prince William may haunt your dreams forever! http://t.co/3mmXCoVOMx

    @britishroyals @itvnews oh dear god!!

    Many were quite simply horrified at what they saw.

    A child could do better: MT "New portrait of the Duke of Cambridge unveiled today" http://t.co/NDUfS4BxE1

    @fatbrenda it's bloody awful

    Prince William portrait by Dan Llywelyn Hall - seriously awful. Who's royal idea was this?

    The new royal portrait of Prince William is a bit shit http://t.co/Od3t4UDujR

    Some had a lot to complain about.

    @DailyMailUK @MailOnline How is an awful painting (that we've paid for & will be seen by few) good value to us? (the taxpayer)

    @monique_muise @britishroyals Without any risk of hyperbole, I can honestly say that I've shat better portraits of Prince William.

    Too much hair on the heir to the heir http://t.co/aMUDb8dkbE via @MailOnline

    And even if you don't understand French, I think we all know what this one's trying to say.

    Tout le monde déteste le #portrait royal du Prince William (#affreux) http://t.co/JdFaDiFKXK

    But others used it as an opportunity to look back at other controversial royal portraits.

    #LOL Hoorah – #Prince #William has a new portrait http://t.co/Jfm8y1imNJ

    New portrait of Prince William by 'artist' who did one of Queen last year. Both dreadful. Orf with his head!!!

    And it seems some even feel the need to confirm who the portrait is actually of.

    Worst. Portrait. Ever. (It's Prince William by the way).

    Others made very poignant observations.

    @KimberleyDadds He looks like he's smelt something bad

    @monique_muise @britishroyals Looks like he's suffering from bad sunburn!

    @BBCWalesNews It looks like it was done by a school kid who doesn't like art

    But this was by far the best observation of them all.

    Does Prince William's new royal portrait remind you of anyone..?
