So, I decided to create a separate icon for boxing, since I've been getting into that lately with matches. I hope to get those posted sometime in the near future; it's actually really fun!
With this icon, I wanted to still keep things simple, but have some kind of theme for it. I was going to try going for an old timey photo with this, but it didn't work out too well. So, I decided to try giving it a newspaper look: the filter, text style and color, border style and color, and the coffee stain in the corner there. Overall, I just wanted to try something new with this one.
The original artwork can be found in my gallery, as well as the artist's upload.
