There is an alternative animated version of Winnie the Pooh made in Russia in 1969 by the director Fyodor Khitruk. Pooh is more lively than the Disney version - and has a very different character design to Disney (or Shepherd's original illustrations). To be fair to Disney, their Pooh design is closer to the spirit of Sherpherd's illustrations (but can't match the charm of Sherpherd's illustrations).

"When Khitruk visited the Disney Studios, Wolfgang Reitherman, the author of Winnie the Pooh and the Blustery Day that won the 1968 Academy Award for Best Animated Short Film, told him that he liked the Soviet version better than his own." [1]
