Thank you for the support at my past Australian Convention Tours! Since 2013 I have been self employed travelling from Perth, Western Australia to exhibit my art booth and be a guest concept artist, illustrator & graphic novelist. I'm now celebrating over 150+ events, comic conventions, galleries & expos across Australia! My 2025 Australian Convention Tour is now live at my Events page with more to be announced soon. Cheers!
Hey there, I'm Austen Mengler - a self employed pop horror concept artist, illustrator & convention exhibitor from Perth, Western Australia who loves drawing monsters!
I've been drawing since I could hold a pencil, and since 2010 after graduating Curtin University (Bachelor of Arts: Design) I've been working professionally full time as a concept artist & illustrator on a variety of international freelance projects, creating traditional pencil & ink & digital Photoshop concept art, illustration, character & creature designs for films, video games, album covers, Kickstarter projects, comics, graphic novels & more. My most recent client & publishing works include designing the title creature design & red carpet poster (with for the 2019 Australian Horror Film “The Faceless Man” by Melbourne’s Chapter 5 Studios, zombie makeup special effects work on Pogo's “Horrorland music video”, as well as creating & donating my painting “Escape” to be included in the "Australia Burns" bushfire relief graphic novel & the From Ashes zine.
Since 2013 I've also regularly exhibited at pop culture conventions, collector & art events in Perth, WA and all around Australia, including performing live demo workshops and talking on panels about my concept art process. It's been an honour to be a guest artist at Supanova, Oz Comic Con and other events as well. As well as freelance projects for clients, I've also been developing and releasing my own original horror art projects and collections, including:
POP HORROR - A series of surreal warped pop culture parodies, reimagining my favourite characters as nightmare fuel!
EXECUTION - My science fiction, fantasy & post apocalyptic world building project, which started as a graphic novel project while at university. An expansive world of characters and creatures.
MY SHADOWS - A dark black and white art book collection of personal digital horror paintings.
SCARY SKETCHES - A look behind the scenes at my traditional pencil, ink and marker sketches and illustrations that go into each detailed digital Photoshop painting, as well as showcasing more rough and early concept art. Other things that keep me busy are releasing new artwork on my Patreon and social media channels, making videos & tutorials for my YouTube Channel, updating my Online Store, Etsy, Society6, Redbubble, INPRNT & Gumroad, and sharing more about my art creation process online.
If you have a business inquiry or question feel free to message or email me, and you can also check out my FAQ for more information. Thanks for the ongoing support, whether it be in person at a show, through art mail orders, my Patreon. Cheers and play nice with my monsters!

HALL OF FAME:
Many of my artworks have been seen by celebrity stars, or indeed created with the intention of giving it to the visiting celebrity while they're in Australia!
- My 8 part Game of Thrones fan artwork series depicting the main characters turned into zombified Wights "Winter Has Come" was created as a gift to author George R. R. Martin at Supanova Comic-Con Adelaide in 2013. I subsequently gifted the actors from the TV series Jack Gleeson (Joffrey), Jason Momoa (Khal Drogo) and Kristian Nairn (Hodor) at later conventions!
- Freddy Krueger actor and horror icon actor Robert Englund enjoyed my fan artwork of him at Oz Comic-Con Melbourne 2014!
- Elijah Wood was a fan of my Balrog "Lord of the Rings" artwork at Supanova Comic-Con - Perth 2019! I was also lucky enough to gift fan artwork to actors Miranda Otto & David Wenham of their characters Eowyn & Faramir at Adelaide & Brisbane Supanova Comic-Con 2024.
- Bill Farmer enjoyed my Kingdom Hearts "GOOFY" horror fan art parody of Kingdom Hearts at Metro Comic-Con!
- Millie Bobby Brown thought that my fan art was "Fantastic!" I portrayed a horror fan artwork "Stranger Danger" for her first Australian convention appearance at Supanova Brisbane & Adelaide 2017. I was also lucky to meet and gift the same artwork to David Harbour & Jamie Campbell Bower at Metro Comic-Con Melbourne in 2023.
- Karl Urban & Karen Fukuhara were big fans of my Pop Horror fan artwork of twisted versions of their characters from "The Boys" TV series.
