I have always had an affinity for obscured individuals who are hard to identify. Also when choosing my Avatar I wanted a person of sorts, not a image of a scene or something along those lines.
Before I used an image of Issac Clarke in his RIG suit.
The character HUNK from the Resident Evil series proved to be a personal favorite character of mine, coincidentally there was a cool concept art/image of him that I personally thought looked cool. So I used that. Recently I was able to remove the background of the avatar to make the actual face more noticeable, thus you now have my current avatar.
