Sousei no Aquarion::Apollo

I luv him >3<
This anime was some big surprise to me... I honestly haven't understood entirely what drew me so much attracted to it, but i loved it despite insane plot and too-much-Evangelion-influence. XD When I started watching it I was so skeptical and suspicious, but when it ended, I cried ;_; lol. XD And the music is awesome... Yoko Kanno <3

I had this sketch of Apollo lying around since forever, I've noticed it last week and was caught in some Aquarion-nostalgia and decided to color it XD Actually, the original sketch was not only old, but was pretty bad too, proportions messed everywhere XD but I fixed most stuff during inking in Inkscape (and still, cut off half of the body XD)
I decided to try another way of coloring, and I'm very happy of the result :3 I dropped soft brushes and used only sharp edge brushes here, with a little little bit of smudge in a few places, but very limited...

Ink:Inkscape
Color: Gimp
