I am not sure what it is or what's what, but I love it. It looks kind of like a lich king with heavy armor. I love it.

Thats exactly what I was aiming for. It is supposed to be kinda like a dark follower, spirit inside the armor. O, and as for the white dots, that was a bit of a screw up because I inked it, scanned it and didnt fix that up because Im really bad at inking. :(

use photoshop to adjust brightness and contrast...

and while your at it, use this coloring method:
make two layers, one with your lineart and one underneath the layer with the line art.
set the top layer (the lineart) to 'multiply'

now you can color underneath the lineart and the colors will show throgh tgh white and grey, but the lines will remain untouched ^^~!

Thats cool. Ill definatly do that on my next coloring (No one ever explained how to actually work with layers. Hope layers are in GIMP). Thanks.

That's pretty nice Lightkirtar... pretty nice.

The bones could use some more texture/shading.

Updated, did the layers and I think it looks much better.

That shading is much better... you still need some more shading on the arms though... overall it looks awesome!

liking the armor very much yes... only the metal things on his arm seem a bit off.. maybe becouse they are less detailed?

what B said, you need shading on the bones!

maybe make some cool light effects, so you can see theres a 'ghost' within... or draw a front/back fiew as well ^^~!
