If you're a Twitter user you may have noticed this week a lot of artwork being posted on the social media site using the hashtag #VisibleWomen.
The project was started by Milkfed Criminal Masterminds, a production company of TV and comic book writers Kelly Sue DeConnick & Matt Fraction.
Inspiring others
While highlighting work of women in the comic book industry, many professionals from various sectors, including games, have also taken part.
Below you can see a selection of artwork from people in the games industry, as well as those inspired by it and those seeking careers in the space.
You can find more images on the #VisibleWomen hashtag over on Twitter.
