Hipsters of the Universe

By Alex in Art, Comics & Cartoons, Fashion on Sep 29, 2009 at 1:48 pm

What would He-Man and the rest of the Masters of the Universe look like if they were into fashion? No need to imagine, as artist Adrian Riemann had re-drawn them as if they were Hipsters of the Universe:

What would He-Man look like if he was really into fashion and indie rock? What if Skeletor was an American Apparel model living in Williamsburg, Brooklyn? What if She-Ra was an art school dropout that spent her time bar-hopping in the Lower East Side?

For the past few months artists Adrian Riemann has been creating a master work that answers these questions. Essentially, Riemann has remixed the characters of the popular 1980s "Masters of the Universe" cartoon series as highfalutin, Justice and Kid Cudi listening, circa 2009 hipsters. On top of that, he styled the characters in designer clothing as if this was a fashion spread in a magazine.

By the way, He-Man wears Dior Homme Jacket, April 77 Jeans, and Pierre Hardy shoes; Skeletor was no slouch himself with Loopwheeler Hoody, Cheap Monday Jeans, and YSL Shoes. I can safely say I’ve never even heard of such brands …

    In the MMO City of Heroes/Villains when I played it for a couple months, I made a guy which looked exactly like Skelletor, and it wasn’t hard at all. If I played it longer, I would have probably made an alternative costume for that character along those lines. It was a pretty impressive character design engine. There are a couple of YouTube videos on how people made theirs, but I did it intuitively.

    Umm…is it just me or do they look like they are all wearing the exact same outfit?
