See Obama and other US politicians as tattooed camera-toting hipsters

After months of campaigning, the US midterm elections have finally come to an end. Here at DesignCrowd we love to hipsterize pop culture icons like Disney characters, so we decided to lighten up the mood a little and see what politicians would look like as tattooed, camera-toting hipsters.

Our crowdsourcing design community of over 500,000 designers from around the world got to work ‘hipsterizing’ past and present US politicians and the contest caught the eye of the press too. Colin Powell, Barack Obama, George W. Bush, Arnold Schwarzenegger, and Sarah Palin, were among some of the best submissions. Congratulations to all designers who entered.

John Kerry



Sarah Palin



Rand Paul



Nancy Pelosi



Abe Lincoln



George W Bush
