His hyper realistic renderings are painted by hand in Photoshop, and he uses real life 'muses' to inspire the details.

"I usually have a certain vision in my head of the character, and I start by thinking of and looking for people or real-life pictures that somehow remind me of the character I am working on." Jirka Väätäinen

His designs are extremely intricate, with all the details from the cartoon versions added in.

"I combine, manipulate and blend together elements, textures and features from dozens and dozens of real-life photos to come up with this vision of mine." - Jirka Väätäinen
