There's a very long story behind this particular piece of art. But, I think I can sum it up for you in about 5 sentences:
1. I was hired by a freelance art director to draw the X-Men for a packaging design.
2. It was for some hologram stickers Polaroid was attempting to put out on the market in '94/'95.
3. After 6 months, and no money, it turned out this "art director" was witholding materials from another job he was working on, so Polaroid witheld funding from him.
4. He subsequently took off with all materials, and ALL the money.
5. I'm not bitter.
This is one of the 5 pieces I produced. Even 10 years later, I'm still pretty proud of this one. I think I managed to get a pretty nice texture on his overcoat. This was back when I was still using nothing but traditional media. Pen & Ink. Charette and Prismacolor makers. Caran D'ache and Prismacolor colored pencils.
