Hipsterdom has just been taken to a whole new level by artist Adrian Reimann—to a She-Ra and He-Man level to be exact. Reimann has re-designed 16 of the famous Masters of the Universe characters and outfitted them in hipster clothing as if they were doing a photoshoot for a hip magazine.
The re-designed Masters of the Universe were hand-drawn on A3, and Reimann says that he plans to “print them on fluorescent or glow in the dark paper. And hopefully do an exhibition with them.”
