To paraphrase their own words: The following gallery is full of woodblock prints designed by Jed Henry, and hand-carved by David Bull any printed by hand in his Tokyo workshop. The materials and techniques used are authentic to those used centuries ago in old Edo.
They're all video game/cartoon/anime/comic characters basically done in the old Japanese style and they are amazing. I've included some gifs taken from David's youtube channel too so you can see the process.
I'll let you figure which properties they're based on. ;)
