Why Must Evil Look So Good?

I started the line art for this last month, but I got so caught up with finals that I had almost forgotten about the piece. After collaborating with on something, and knowing her love of my TF2 villain/antihero, Bane, I got inspired to finish this.

Seriously, why are so many of the bad guys out there hot!? Not that I'm complaining or anything, but still!

Drawn from start to finish in Adobe Photoshop CS4 with Wacom Intuos 3 drawing tablet.
Time to complete: 4 hours

Team Fortress 2 is owned by VALVe. Bane is owned by me (much to the dismay of a number of fangirls).
