The chiseled Marlon Teixeira bursts out of his comfort zone for this series by Sofia Sanchez and Mauro Mongiello. This smokin' hot [male model](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/boss-bottled-beyond) normally boasts a traditionally masculine look; however, in this series Marlon Teixeira is [tatted up](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/86-tattoo-limited-edition) as the perfect picture of rebellion.

Though the [ink may be fake](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/inked-out), Marlon Teixeira comes off as the genuine article in the shoot. His smoldering eyes and pouty facial expression come together to create the poster child for rough and tumble.
