Tom Hanks is one of my all-time favorite actors. His performance is truly remarkable in so many movies! So I decided to put together all of my favorite characters played by this Oscar-winning actor and draw them in my style.
Check the gallery down below and let me know which one you think is the best ! And also, have I missed out any of your favorites?
Follow the links below to find more of my illustrations.

The noses either look like giants zits, or they are the noses of a giant alcoholic. Extremely distracting to me and I just skimmed as a result after seeing the first couple.

"Big" is there! It's one of my favourites too! Take a look at the illustrations once again - Big is already there ))

Before I saw what the subject was, I saw the cartoon and knew it was Tom Hanks. I do love that the cartoonist captured Tom Hanks' very special sweetness. I hope we'll see him as Mr. Rogers soon too.
