The person I chose to do a silhouette of was Usain Bolt, I still remember when he broke the record and how monumental it was, and how iconic his pose was, so that was the reason why I had chosen to do it.

From the illustrator, I made 5 layers, one for the original photo that I was tracing from, the background which includes the lightning bolts and the gradient along with it. The silhouette, and finally his clothes on top of that. I also traced a flash symbol on his shirt to match with the background and colors.
EDIT:
I had just fixed some parts of the paths for the clothes as you can see the outline of it sticking out in certain places, so I just edited his clothes so that it was over the outline.
