This is a submission for Four Year Strong. A while back I had drawn Kali and then just shelved it hoping that a project would come along that would fit. The only art direction I was given is that they liked super rock stuff like snakes, chicks, etc... I figured that this might fit the bill. I inked it and live traced it. I REALLY need to get a new Wacom (I have a Graphire and hate it) and start seriously inking digitally.
This ended up not being accepted by FYS. A band called Irepress bought the design.

"Can you use their logo?"
I bet you get asked that.

I love seeing this from beginning of sketch to the final stages, but I would suggest going with a different type treatment.

I hope not. Their logo is pretty uninspired.

I love FYS and I am a huge fan.
The work is super great but I just don’t see it working out as one of their shirts.

Rejected. I eventually ended up selling this design to a band called Irepress.
