This is stunning hyper-realistic drawing is featured on baseball cards in 2025 Topps Update Series (the final artwork as well as three “in-progress” images).

This graphite drawing captures Aaron Judge of the New York Yankees at his most iconic – the instant after crushing a home run, eyes tracking the ball as it soars beyond the outfield wall. It’s the calm after contact, the quiet confidence of a player who knows it’s gone the moment it leaves the bat.

Every detail is drawn entirely by hand, from the tension in his follow-through to the glint of light on the pinstripes. The Captain immortalizes the strength, poise, and power that have made Judge a legend – a symbol of leadership, consistency, and awe-inspiring talent.

Perfect for Yankees fans and collectors alike, this piece celebrates not just a swing, but a statement – the unmistakable presence of Aaron Judge, a player who redefines greatness with every at-bat.
