Dad Transforms His Sons’ Drawings Into Stunning Anime Characters

There are so many ways to spend a valuable moment with your kids, but the anime artist surely has his own unique idea.

Thomas Romain is a French animator and anime artist who lives in Tokyo, Japan. The artist has been working on a number of anime series including Space Dandy, Aria and Basquash!

But his new series which collaborate with two young artists, his sons, were indeed not less captivating.

It all began when one of his sons drew a start-studded alien, comprised of markers, fuzzy fabric and stickers. Romain then added shades and watercolor to the piece, that turned it into a nicely done illustration.

Since then, Romain and his sons started collaborating on a project called the ‘Father & Sons’ Design Workshop.

Thomas would let his sons play with their own creativity to come up with all sorts of character drawings. Later on, he would transform the sketches into a professionally done anime characters, including Tulip Brothers, Cyborg, Steampunk Doctor and Magic Knight.

Check out some of our selected favorites. You will be stunned by how the final characters turn out!
