Portrait 04 Frankie Knuckles

Generated from: Prohibition-era 1930s gangster noir comic-book cover portrait. A single character bust - head, shoulders down to the waist - full frontal, facing the viewer. Bold pulp poster illustration with heavy black ink shadows, flat painted surfaces, extreme high contrast, clean graphic shapes, no photorealism, no 3D render, no anime. Palette strictly black, near-black charcoal, blood-red #B31217, cream-bone white #EDE7DA and gold #C9A227 only. The character's face is dead centre in the frame both horizontally and vertically, the head occupying the central third of the image, shoulders inside the frame. Character: FRANKIE "KNUCKLES" MARINO, an enormous shirtless muscular bruiser - flat newsboy cap, black suspenders, brass knuckles on both fists raised near his chest, tattooed arms, mean toothy grin, massive shoulders. Deep blood-red flat panel background with a black ink vignette and faint diagonal rain streaks. Square 1:1 composition. No text, no lettering, no logo, no watermark, no border or frame.
