Illustration I made, the framed version is going to be a birthday gift for a buddy.
Basically the backstory is that back in school, he used to form the alu foil he used to pack his lunch with, into claws and pretended to be Wolverine.
Pretty lame joke obviously, but the key to lame jokes is repeating them so many times that they become actually funny. 
 
 

 

 
 
Original resolution is 2480x3508 with 300 dpi.
 
Looks pretty gorgeous in person If I say so myself. Pretty proud of the fist illustration, too.

Nice work! The foil blades would be better if they had jagged edges to make it look like actual tin foil (like you did on the roll on the bottom) as opposed to just doing a clipping mask. Good job on the hand illustration! Just curious, though... any particular reason you used red? Not that it's bad, just curious if it has any significance or anything.

Not really, I went through pretty much the whole palette and it came down to red, yellow and black, but pretty much because of personal preference. 
 
With red (+ a fist) at least you could say it's kinda based on a communism poster haha. 
 
 
Thanks
