Snapchatter transforms selfies into superheroes

A British man has gained a mass following on Snapchat by transforming his snaps into drawings of superheroes.

Sajj Riaz has mastered the art of the Snapchat colour palette, drawing over his face with images of superheros, cartoon characters and comic book characters.

"After getting used to the app and messing around with it, I realised I could create a lot of detailed work," Sajj told the UK Daily Mirror.

"I then started to let my artistic side take over and started to create a whole new picture by drawing on to my phone."

To follow Sajj on Snapchat, he can be found under the name "saj_r".
