This series of illustrations by Polish artist Krzysztof Domaradzki features fallen World Cup finalists. Entitled 'Hero Tees', the custom portraits of England's Wayne Rooney, Portugal's Christiano Ronaldo and Brasil's Neymar da Silva were originally designed as vivid t-shirt graphics.
Despite of their iconic status in the sport of soccer, the athletes featured in these illustrations didn't end up as World Cup finalists at the 2014 Fifa tournament in Brasil.
Krzysztof Domaradzki's 'Hero Tees' image set features tattoo-inspired imagery of some of soccer's most respected and recognized stars. These portraits celebrate national icons and leave us in anticipation of Sunday's World Cup Final that will feature what is sure to be a memorable match between Germany and Argentina.
