The cartoon-style illustration shows a self-portrait illustration of Uğur smiling. He has a big oval head in the middle. His skin is soft pink, and he has a big red eye. Just above the eye is a dark blue coloured curved eyebrow. The character's hair is short and has a modern cut. His hair is grey with different shades and textures. There is a half-oval-shaped body just below the head. The same texture is used for the body as for the hair. The character has a red piercing in his ear. The background of the work is dark blue. Light blue lines facing in different directions form a pattern at the very back.

Uğur Altun

The illustration shows a self-portrait of Ender; there is a single character facing the viewer. The character is black and white. Surrounding the character is a flower motif with neon red colours, repeating (composed of identical drawings) except for the corners, and in some parts, it remains behind. The character, dressed in a hoodie and denim pants like an ordinary young person, has a completely contradictory situation in his head, which can be described as terrifying but also cute due to being drawn with a humorous tone. In the upper left corner, a small cute bat-like creature resembling a furry ball pulls the skin of the character's face gently, drawing all attention directly towards us while revealing the character's skull on the right side of the head, as if pulling a blanket from a bed. There is a visible skull on the right side of the character's head, separated from the skin above. There is no blood or detailed other tissue between the skin and the skull; this intense and frightening movement is drawn with a simple, cute comic style. The character's large eyes and huge pupils, almost covering the entire eye, look directly at us with attention and a sense of vacancy. The character is holding a hand scythe similar to that of the Grim Reaper. Designed as a combination of the Grim Reaper and an ordinary young person, this character has taken on a frightening, cute, and humorous appearance.

Ender Yıldızhan

A large hairy white man has gritted teeth and hunched shoulders while they furiously doodle a simple self-portrait on a drawing tablet. The scene is drawn with cartoon lines and coloured in various shades of rust. The artist has large glasses, thick wavy hair, and a full beard. They are dressed in a waistcoat with a pocket square, and a button down shirt with the sleeves rolled up. Strong squiggly energy lines emanate from them as they scribble.
