Divtober Day 10: Organized

This has been the most challenging drawing so far. Mainly, because I had a tough time deciding what to draw; and once I picked something, it was not the best choice: loosely related to the topic, too time consuming (especially compared to the other drawings), and it could be created with SVG in a much simpler way... Although I like the result, it is not really worth it on CSS.

Anyway, the drawing is a 1920s-looking gangster (a member of the mafia or organized crime):

It is based on this picture from iStockPhoto, and it is "responsive" (to the viewport.)

Thanks. Still, it's not worth it. In SVG, you can do this drawing with 3 paths. In CSS it's an overkill.

Blasphemy! You can't talk about the dark side like that! 😋

Believe me the extra effort in the CSS is worth it, for all of the SVG love I have I still very much appreciate the CSS magic you are performing!
