X-Men get Frozen

Hey people! Let me tell you a story...

"Once upon a time there was a fashion illustrator named Obinna who lived in Lagos, Nigeria. He had a lot of nephews but he spent most time with two in particular; Ani & Akan. The boys loved to play and draw with their uncle but attimes he had to do some serious work and he sent them off to play with each other, which made them unhappy.

One day while trying to keep them busy so that he could sketch out some illustrations he played them a dvd about enchanted royal sisters and since then they were never unhappy when their uncle had to work again. In no time the boys learnt to sing 'Let It Go'; a soundtrack off the animation and everyone lived happily ever after..."

Since I get a lot of ideas off cartoons and translate them into other things I thought 'what if Marvel's X-Men starred in Disney's Frozen?' Well I guess this is what they would look like...

Iceman (Bobby Drake) as Kristoff
The White Queen (Emma Frost) as Queen Elsa
Gambit (Remy Lebeau) as Prince Hans
Rogue (Anna Marie) as Princess Anna

So let me know what was your favourite childhood cartoon character and I just might restyle them!

Have a lovely weekend.
Stay Haute,
Sir Binna.

Welcome to Fenix Inkorporated!!!

Hello y'all. I'm baaack. I took some time off the blog scene (& a whole lot of other scenes) to refocus. I'm so excited about reopening my blog formerly known as The Fantom Diaries, and now as Fenix Inkorporated. And what better way to reopen than to write an introductory post (which i shoulda written when i first started blogging anyways). Oh well, here goes...

My love for art began with a kindergarten assignment my father taught me to do. From then on arts and crafts were my favourite subjects. Growing up in a very large family, i easily escaped into my own imaginative worlds of superheroes which helped to increase my curiousity into comics and how they were made. My sis gave me my first set of professional color pencils before the age of 11, and needless to say, i fell head over heels in love with them and began churning out my wacky versions of the cartoon shows i watched. In a short while the creativity flowed into my dress sense, which got me 'revamping' my clothes when i got bored with them.
