Whipped this out in a couple of hours as a sort of breather in between projects.

It's still surprising to me just how much of an inspiration Akira was to me. Sometimes I kinda forget but I'm quickly reminded whenever I pop the movie in. I really want to re-read the manga now too.

Done in Photoshop mostly with a square chalk brush because I wanted to give it some texture. I worked in grayscale again because dealing with color is still a little overwhelming to me and I wanted to do this right and quickly.

That's his pose every time he stops a 108mm shell with his mind. :) He's is epicsauce!! Long live the anime that revolutionized the anime world especially in Western Society of Anime!

Great Job!
