Slava Ukraini!

Inspired by recent events, I used Greg Staples “Tank Girl” artwork originally created by Jamie Hewlett and Alan Martin to create some artwork for moral support in Ukraine 🇺🇦

Along with the Ukraine badges, tank commander helmet and gear, I also used a beer bottle from the Pravda Brewery, the company who changed from producing beer to making molotov cocktails to defend their country.

Glory to Ukraine!

Edit: I’ve been informed her tiktok handle is __princeska_13_ , so it’s appropriately named! Also she was interviewed on Ukrainian television, you can see here.

 

Edit 2 (13/11/22): I was contacted through Instagram by @art_river_tanya who paints one-off jackets in Ukraine.

She has painted a jacket of the Mechanized Vehicle Princess!

Edit 3 (23/02/2023): An art exhibition has been setup in Vinnytsia to raise money for Ukraine’s defense.

Mechanized Vehicle Princess was featured as one of the artworks that you can buy a print of, with profits going to the Ukraine Army to help protect their country.

Ukraine website with more info is here.

Edit 4 (8/12/2023): THe official website for donations to Ukraine is here.

This is how the power of an idea can bring inspiration and hope to others <3
