Barbario!

I've just added Barbaro's head sketch to the Head-Winners set in HM3 as his contest winning prize. I think it's a good drawing but it doesn't come close to hitting the true bad-assery of the original photo. Dude's a straight-up super-hero looking guy IRL. If he's willing, I'll put the reference shot up at the end for comparison.

Edited to Add: With his kind permission, here's the original. Like I said, total bad-ass.

    Damn! I think if you ever make a “Male-Badass” template like you did with the Fantasy hero, this portrait should be included. In fact just this portrait. Blown up at 200%.

    Good idea, AMS! I like the concept of doing something with one of the Winner heads.

    I feel like I’m in a Futurama episode every time I see them, though, I have to confess.

    So, Barbario, your secret is out. You’re here on HM3 soliciting input on how your costume is going to look.

    Good work, Jeff.

    It’d be funny to see people put a guy’s head in a bunch of different contexts. Like some Photoshop meme.

    That’s some good work you do there, Jeff. You can really see a good comparison between…Jesus Christ, Barbario looks like a scary badass! Like cross-the-street, and-keep-your-head-down scary. No offense, because you’ve been a great guy here, but if I saw you on the street coming towards me with that expression, I’d want to get out if your way.

    I might have been a little intimidated.

    Wow!
    Sorry, but you’re right, jeff, the pic doesn’t do him justice. I can totally see barbario playing in Expendables 2 or some other action movie.
