Cool, a contest! Hello there guys, my name is Robert Salazar and I like graphics. Thanks for the opportunity to let me show off a little! 😛

Here is the original concept.

I took it step further and made some modifications, then naturally painted it on my wall. The freedom of acrylic let me play with colors and textures more naturally than I could just sitting at my desk. 😛

The illustration was then taken into Illustrator for vectorizing, as per the contests request. Just a few more tweaks and it is complete!
