Thomas Romain is a French illustrator and animator best known for creating Code Lyoko, an animated science-fiction series.
But lately, Romain is going viral for transforming his son's creative drawings into epic anime characters.
While Romain's two sons aren't as advanced as their father (yet), it's clear they share the same talent and incredible imaginative ability.
