UNMATCHED — FC Bayern Munich Illustration Series

Between 2023 and 2024, I had the pleasure of illustrating a special content series for FC Bayern Munich, celebrating iconic player moments from club history. Each illustration captured a defining move—sharp tackles, precise dribbles, unstoppable curls—and was tailored to express the energy, emotion, and movement of the player’s signature style.

The artworks combined dynamic pencil linework with watercolor splashes and digital color layering. Whether it was Franz Beckenbauer’s outside-of-the-boot pass or Arjen Robben’s trademark left-foot curl, each piece was built around composition and motion.

The series was used across the club’s homepage, social media channels, and storytelling articles—bridging past and present in a editorial visual identity.
