Hello, my name is Tim van Galen 22-year-old student at HKU(University of the Arts Utrecht) based in the Netherlands. I mostly specialize in character design and concept art. Drawing is my Passion!

My own take on the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles(because I really love TMNT). Tried to really make each of their personalities stand out by figuring out their personality, hobbies, and clothing style. Also gave them their own animal to represent their personality in a traditional Japanese tattooing style.

Michelangelo(Mike or Mikey) - Leonardo(Leo) - Raphael(Raph) - Donatello(Don or Donnie)

Characters I designed during my mentorship with the great Even Mehl Amundsen.

Captain Kraken - The gifted Pirate

Stinky Steve - The Cursed Fisherman

These 2 characters are Opposites, they both got cursed by a sea witch who merged them with a squid! now one of them used his curse as a gift and became a legendary pirate with many riches! The other took it as a curse and became a stinking poor fishseller.

My Other Characters I designed during the mentorship.

Mole - The Scamming Guide

He is a guide scamming travelers with his scandalous contracts and thievery.

Gurt - The playful Blacksmith 

He is a funny little halfling and likes to joke around and make the biggest most flamboyant kind of armor.


School project time! This was a very fun project to do with my friends from school.

The main character of our game was Belle with her disembodied companion Pinnochio!

Thank you for looking through all of my work really appreciate it!
