This was another college piece. I don't remember the assignment but I do remember my thinking. I was striving to illustrate muscles and the human form convincingly.The X on the back of the head was a symbol that was having a resurgence in the late 80s. Also cutting designs in to hair was a big thing at the time. It was just supposed to feel powerful. Just for kicks I shopped the illustration to be a bit more topical to the current times and posted it beneath the original. The original was airbrush and colored pencil. The piece ended up being one of my promo piece mailers and was received pretty well during portfolio reviews.
