BPRD Pinup - Ben Daimio

Hellboy and BPRD are without doubt my favourite comics of all time, so i had to do some fan art eventually.

Ben Daimio to start with. He is/was technically the team leader a little while after the departure of Hellboy. He has a chunk of face missing, and turns out he is a were-jaguar. I love the guy.

I used Takeshi Kitano.

I wanted to mimic Mike Mignola's habit of putting a frieze or a relief behind his characters in pinups and covers, so i used a Mayan frieze behind Daimio. It doesn't featue a jaguar god, but it was the closest i could get really.
