SALVADOR MONZON

Hi steemians:

This past weekend my father saw a heavyweight boxing match. In his own words it was a very close and interesting confrontation, where both opponents demonstrated their boxing skills and experience fighting to the end with ferocity. The confrontation lasted 7 round's and had as winner the biggest and least athletic boxer of both opponents. That great boxer inspired me to create an original character named Salvador Monzon, a warrior with a noble heart but big hands who is willing to show everyone what it is worth.

Step by step

1. Before starting, a new blank canvas opens.

3. I cleaned the sketch with the lineart and leave it ready for coloring.

4. I decided to start coloring by his skin.

As final result: The boxer.

(For the curious, Salvador is 40 years old, a couple with two children aged 7 and 4, and a prestigious career as a boxer. Throughout his career as a fighter he has never attacked with low blows and has always maintained a streak of blows Clean. He has lost only 5 times and in three of them the judges have been bought by their opponents. Over the years, he has been able to maintain the respect and affection of the public).


Despite not being passionate about boxing, I really enjoy it. I like to see how the fighters defend themselves inside the ring and how their "fighting spirit" takes them and motivates them to finish a fight. I like the story behind Salvador's creation and his final design. I hope you liked it and, as always, I would love to hear your opinion in the comments. A big hug!
