This is artist Artemii Myasnikov, amid some of his creations. He's based in St. Petersburg, Russia, and his art focuses mostly on blending fantasy and tech.
His art has been going viral recently, thanks to a series he drew featuring Disney princesses as armored warriors.
Myasnikov told BuzzFeed that he was inspired to start the project thanks to two influences: his wife, and the new Netflix show Disenchantment.

"One night we were watching the Disenchantment series and we started a discussion on what we like/dislike about the main character," he told BuzzFeed. "One of the things we both liked is how she's not a damsel in distress, unlike most of the princesses in Disney movies."
Myasnikov started off with Snow White, because he considered her to be "the most damsel-in-distress-y princess ever," and wanted to make a version who would be "armed, dangerous, and in charge of her own fate."
He chose a "medieval-ish" influence for the designs, and mostly stuck to that time frame for the weapons and armor.
However, some of the designs have more of a "fantasy touch," as Myasnikov put it, complete with details on how the princesses would fight.

"With Tiana I wanted to give an impression that her layered skirt is a part of her armor and a weapon at the same time," he said. "It's flexible enough so she could move freely and it becomes a razor as she jumps and spins."
