SciFi and Fantasy Art: Poseidon

this was one of my first attempts with that style i was using a few years ago. i wanted to draw poseidon, the great king of the oceans. when i was a child, i often watched 'saint seya'. i was all fascinated by the characters, and mostly, by the episodes with poseidon. so this is a little tribute to him;-).

again, too bad that my scanner does not take the highlighted colours well - the beard is supposed to be bright orange, the lips and eyes bright yellow and the skin around the eyes bright pink. since it didn't turn out well at all, i thought i'd change the colours on the computer into some more marine like ones, so it would fit more to the theme. i don't know why i didn't put it up here before - i really like him actually...:)
