Music figures heavily into Guardians of the Galaxy, so it’s beyond fitting that artist Kevin Tiernan expressed his appreciation for the films with album fan art. He came up with the concept of vinyl covers featuring the Guardians for the first film; making the record mock-ups back then marked his first time creating fan art.

Recently, Kevin was inspired to update the concept for Vol. 2. As far as I’m concerned, it’s a brilliant idea because it means we get Baby Groot!

Baby Groot on all the things.

And Rocket Raccoon:

I would so be down to collect a record featuring some combination of these designs. I’m all about the bold and minimalist combination Kevin presents.

Fly your ship to the gallery below to see all of the Guardians, plus a couple of others like Yondu, depicted in record art form. Then, go view more of Kevin’s work at Behance, his website, and on Instagram. If Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles is your jam, he has a cool print available through Gallery 1988.

Do you create any sort of fan art? If so, I want to see it. Whether you focus on a specific fandom or pull inspiration from multiple stories and mediums, I’d like to highlight what you do. If you’re interested in being featured in a future edition of Fan Art Friday, get in touch with me at [email protected] with examples of your work. If you’re not an artist, feel free to email me with recommendations for Fan Art Friday!
