#SixFanArts Encourages Artists to Draw Beloved Characters

Fan art is a great way of discovering new artists and new ways to enjoy your favorite characters. The internet has long been a treasure trove of wonderful fan art, but a brilliant new hashtag is encouraging artists to do not one, not two, not three, not four, not five, but six iconic characters in their own unique style! Designed by Melissa Capriglione, #SixFanArts has been taking the internet by storm. The coolest thing about the challenge is that the artists who are taking part are soliciting suggestions from their fans on Twitter of just who they should draw.

We’ve collected some of the coolest entries into the hashtag right here for your enjoyment!

Isadora Zeferino turned her eye and unique style to some of our absolute favorite characters including Prince Suko, San, and Usagi!

Awesome award-winning cartoonist and comics editor extraordinaire Steenz has filled us with joy with her takes on Gonzo, Sailor Jupiter, Jill Valentine, and our personal fave… six zubats!

He’s the artist behind awesome runs on Detective Comics, Nightwing, Captain Marvel, All-New Wolverine, and many more! Now Marcio Takara has blessed us with these rad takes on some pop culture icons.

Fantastic freelance artist Kisu-no-hi put together this incredible line up of fan faves including Legosi from the recent Netflix furry anime Beastars!

If you’ve checked out Clean Break, Dodo, or Klaus you’re likely already following the amazing Felipe Nunes. During this hashtag they blessed us with these stunning designs. We particularly love Coraline, Ace, and Aku!

One of the fan artists we love following the most is Mikk, whose work is nothing short of stunning! If you haven’t discovered them already this technicolor offering is a great teaser!

Caspar Wijngaard has been making beautiful, beautiful waves in the comics industry for a while now on books like Angelic, Limbo, and Doctor Aphra. But here he focused on some non-comics characters with wonderful visions for Nadia from Russian Doll and Lister from Red Dwarf.

We’re obsessed with these gorgeously cute takes on some of our faves like Steven Universe, Beast Boy, and Phineas from Phineas and Ferb!

Birds of Prey‘s Harley Quinn and Doc from Animal Crossing drawn by one of the most talented illustrators going? Yes please!!

Can we please get a Lupin series in the style of the brilliant Stel Lizard now ????

You might know Ro Stein and Ted Brandt’s work from Eisner-Nominated comic Crowded, but if not, fall in love with these astonishingly great cartoonish takes on six wicked characters.

We’ve all been missing Brienne of Tarth, so thank the goddess for Laís Leite’s lovely romantic take on one of our fave Game of Thrones characters alongside some other sterling choices.

Make sure you follow along at the tag #SixFanArts and share your favorites with us!
