I was inspired to do This minimalist portrait of everyone's favorite metallic X-man, Colossus, after viewing the art of :iconyusef420: . His minimalist approach to drawing everyone's favorite superheroes is just amazing. Simple yet iconic. If you have the time, go check out his gallery. You won't be dissapointed, I assure you!

Great Job! This is your first attempt at minimalist art? Way to go!
If you don't mind I'm gonna submit this into the contest.

Welcome to the fold! :)

When I saw this show up in my messages I assumed it was Yusef's; he'd mentioned planning to work on a Colossus design. But you've clearly brought your own style. The eyes are so striking! I look forward to seeing more.

We Marvel minimalists root each other on--and this deserves applause! :)

Thank you! I'm glad to be here!

Lol, you guys are so kind! I could see why you assumed it was Yusef's lol. When I came across his page and saw all his work. I kind of styled it after that because that was my initial interaction with the idea of Marvel Minimalism.

To be honest I had a refrence pic of one of the older drawings of colossus cause I wanted to see how they do those black lines that go across his face to help represent the sheen of his metal and when I saw the image it was also around the eyes too, So I thought I just HAVE to incorporate this!

I've already planned to do alot more within the course of today, so I'll be doing them as time goes by and submitting them to you guys, so you'll be sure to see more of me soon!

That's great. And again, I think you're on to something original and very cool.

I'd welcome any comments you have on any of my designs, of course, if you care to browse. I've been experimenting a lot lately, trying to find a style of my own within the limits of a minimalist vocabulary. I'd love to know what you like, or even what you don't.
