Tim Burton is best known for directing and creating the likes of A Nightmare Before Christmas, Batman Returns, The Corpses Bride, Sleepy Hollow, The Demon Barber Of Fleet Street, Mars Attacks and a remark of Planet Of The Apes (which he probably doesn’t wish to remember) and more recently Dark Shadows.

But outside of making movies, he’s also created a series of fiendish characters, many of which for the basis of those featured in his animated films. It’s those creations that  Vaughn Pinpin aka Hatboy (an aspiring illustrator and Visual Communication student at the University of the Philippines College of Fine Arts) re-imagines and re-interprets in his illustrated series Tim Burton x PKMN Project

The popular idea of Tim Burton characters are all thin and big eyes and whatnot, but apparently the vocabulary of this style is larger than I thought

He effortlessly blends elements of Burton’s work with the modern day styling’s of Pokémon to create these creepy, cool and unique characters and monsters. See & experience more works from Hatboy’s collection via his Tumblr blog
