I drew Lionel Messi kissing the World Cup.

In this artwork, I depicted Lionel Messi passionately kissing the World Cup trophy. To bring this illustration to life, I employed a 2HB pencil for the initial sketch, carefully capturing the intricate details of his expression and the iconic moment. The challenging aspect of the drawing was meticulously crafting the nuances of his beard, ensuring every stroke added depth and texture.

After completing the pencil work, I utilized a black marker to outline and emphasize Messi's figure and the World Cup's elegant contours. To enhance the overall impact and add a touch of refinement, I utilized digital tools to make subtle adjustments to the contrast and lighting, creating a striking visual effect that emphasizes the emotional intensity of the scene. The combination of traditional and digital techniques resulted in a powerful and captivating portrayal of one of football's greatest moments.
