This was a fun one for me. Having grown up in the '90s with the animated X-Men show, and then the movies coming out in the '00s, I have always been a huge fan of the team of mutants. But it was when Colossus was introduced as one of the students of Xavier's School in X-2: X-Men United, that I became a bit obsessed with the big dude.
The scene where he gets out of bed, shirtless, ready to defend himself and his fellow classmates, and then transforms into his metal form. I was like, dayum. So it was only a matter of time before I eventually did a drawing like this.
I always like finding a way to challenge myself, and creating the reflective quality of Colossus's metal skin was definitely a challenge. I learned a lot from figuring it out, and I love how it came out. I also can't help but imagine what that metal boner might feel like...
I might have to do another illustration of this guy one day.
