My name is Amit Shimoni. I'm a Tel-Aviv-based illustrator, content creator and character designer and I'm the artist behind the HIPSTORY series, an ongoing project with over 35 Hipstoriezed world leaders.
Since the series was first feathered on BORED PANDA, with only a few HIPSTORY characters, today I create a new HIPSTORY every 2 months, creating an ongoing history for my viewers. Each illustrated character gets its own unique HIPSTER interpretation based on the character's life (Obama has a tattoo of his favorite reading book-Moby Dick), its persona (Princess Diana is wearing a T-shirt with a mine picture peeping out- she was known for her activism on the subject) and its achievements in life (Einstein has a tattoo of the novel prize).
After an impressing lineup of world leaders like Ghandi, Nelsom Mandela and MLK, my latest characters; Trump, Kim John Hum and Putin, might not be exact typecast for my series HIPSTORY but are definitely going to be the ones who shape the future of tomorrow. At the end, my idea is to give today's generation access to history's leaders and creating a world of ongoing HISTORY.

Yeah, a murderous terrorist who ended the apartheid era, gave freedom to blacks, and had a great impact on many people. Not to mention that the ANC used non violent protest for most of their existence. Umkhonto we Sizwe, (a militant wing of the ANC, meaning "Spear of the People") never wanted anyone dead in their violent protests. They cut power lines, and destroyed buildings to prove a point. Any deaths were an accident, killing was not the point of their protests. Mandela was arrested for treason against an all white, racist government. Obviously you don't know history, and are probably a racist white douche who needs to do some more research before making comments against some of history's greatest people.

I think the artist just wanted to make his name fit with the hipster style.

This one disturbs me greatly... Then again, maybe my feelings about her less-known political decisions are influencing that.

And why do all people featuref here has to be 100% good? Would be hard finding politicians who he could portrait at all. Not only good people are steering the course of our world and become great leaders.
