Description
This is Radicael, the guardian of the Swamp of Curiosity.The character belongs to SandiPanda who won the 2nd place in my Silent Hill contest.
As a reward for his grand achievement, he wanted me to colour one of his linearts.
Even though the background is not as good as I would like it, I still like Radicael's arm and metallic face. Not sure if it's supposed to be metallic, I just thought it fitted :]
I hope you like it, Sandi!

This is awesomeness X 3...!
You should really do more stuff like this, cuz this is equal or better (yep, really!) than many "digital painter" deviant's stuff on my +watch!
You don't happen to remember the time taken to do this one?

Aww, you're too sweet 
I got the motivation (and some inspiration) from watching a few of =One-Vox 's livestreams while painting. Too bad the stream is on 02.00 in the morning. But it's worth it ^^
I'm not sure about the number of hours spent on this piece :/ It took me a month from start to finished, but maybe 10+ hours of dedicated activity.

I'm only saying what I think of it...
Aha, you've seen him "in action" too?! He's one of the really good digital artists, I'm quite amazed by his "lineless" paintings...^^
I made a close guess then, 6-12 hours.

Even if you're not totaly happy of the final result, it has some charm. The gradation of purple to grey-blue is nice! ^^
The lightning effects on all this drawing are greatly respected. The character is kind of weird but it looks sage and old, Kind of a wizard.
It remember me the reaper.
Very nice work of details, lightning and shadows! ^^

I'm Making More Characters Here, How About MORE Colab?

Thank you! 
Making more collabs sounds tempting indeed, but right now I have a huge list of art and stuff I owe people, along with personal projects. But when I find some extra time, I will remember you

Wow Sakie!! I love your coloring so much! 
How have you been?

Thank you so much, Gali! It makes me happy every time I get an encouraging comment from you ^^ That is exactly what I need in times like this.
I've been feeling very sad lately, and it have been going on for months. Probably it's some kind of winter-related depression caused by the lack of sunshine. Thank goodness spring is on its way.
I really hate waiting for it, though. I want my self-confidense back; I don't want to feel useless! >:U
And how are you? :3

You are very welcome Sakie! it's always a pleasure to comment on your amazing drawings
I'm sad to hear that, it might go away if you read nice books or distract yourself :3 Hope your sadness goes away ^_^
I'm good thank you, I just deleted 280 drawings from my gallery, they were just bothering me, now I have 80 something. I sold 2 commissions and I think a third one is on the way, and I've been Role playing with it's so fun! Also my inspiration came back but it's not enough to make Galidor's human reference yet XD.

I've actually tried a lot of different distractions (like watching tv, youtube videos, playing games...), but what I need is some fun with friends. All you wonderful guys here on dA have always provided me with inspiration to go on with my creative work.
You've been busy, I see :3 Good work with the commissions!
RP is kinda fun, but I'm a coward :s Last time I tried it was with ~Stalker-Wolf on a private forum. With all the walls of text we wrote, you could make a novel ^^' Too bad the story ended very quick and not completed.
