Stand your ground

Matio, an old drawing.. I think acutally I made it around midsummer 2 years ago

One of those which got lost in my corrupted file crash where I lost all my pics and drawings.

Was kind of hard to get started since the original was less than 800 pxl height (this was drawn 1300 pxl height) So had to fix the lineart first.
I had colored the hair before and I wanted to keep that since I really fancy it! Originally I planned to do a completely grey blueish steelish outfit but when I started on this one tuesdays I felt like doing something a little more different and I think it turned out pretty good!

Colored in 2 days, about 5 hours I guess. Pretty little time if you consider the amount of detail I actually bothered to put in this pic!
I sooooo enjoyed to color it, the lineart was perfectly detailed and gave me lots of challenge and well, joy! ^^

Originally he had dragons on his arms too, but I didnt have the courage to try to draw them here
