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.

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