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.

Akif Kaynar

A self-portrait illustration of Hatiye, drawn in vivid colours on a dark and warm orange background. Hatiye is a medium light-skinned person with a dark and short bob haircut. She smiles with her back turned and looks backwards. She is wearing a coat resembling the yellow sunflowers. An imaginary blue bird, which she always uses in her illustrations, is flying towards her face.

Hatiye Garip

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.
