The illustration shows a self-portrait of Akif standing in front of a colourful sky on a cold and pale spring day. Akif is on the left, facing the viewer. He has tan skin, short dark brown hair and a thin dark brown moustache. He is protected from the sunlight by a white, open-topped hat and cool, elliptical-shaped glasses. He is wearing a light pink short-sleeved t-shirt.

A self-portrait illustration of Aysun Altındağ while drawing herself with a pencil. The illustration reflects the moment she draws her legs and white skirt. She has long brown hair with a little blonde patch in it, a big head, pale skin and rosy cheeks. She is wearing a pink jumper. The background colour of the illustration is white and highlights the central character.

A digital self-portrait illustration of Gizem. The mood of the image is dreamy and playful. There is a woman with dark brown, wavy hair smiling slightly. Her skin colour is vibrant orange-pink, painted flatly. Her hair is dark blue to turquoise with a spray brush texture.
Her big, puffy hair dominates the illustration. From her hair, black abstract wavy shapes are coming out and creating a messy pattern for the surroundings. She has relatively slit eyes and a crooked nose. Her face looks towards the audience while her right shoulder is more visible. There is an empty white space below her shoulders, again patterned by the black wavy shapes that come from her hair, but this time, they look like water waves.
