Apollo from the show Aquarion, or Sousei no Aquarion depending on your preference. It's a show I recently started watching, and while some parts can get a little unrealistic (it's anime, I know, I know, but bear with it) and gets that sort of weird "we learned a lesson that saves the day" thing some anime have, it's truly a beautiful show with a compelling storyline. I believe (not certain though) that it's by the same people who did Escaflowne, which I'm actually watching as I write this.

Apollo is one of those rough around the edges, heart of gold types. Probably one of the roughest I've ever seen I might add, but he has a lot of draw to him.

I'm really proud of this fan art (my fourth!) 'cause I was able to implement the background technique of my animal stuff, but also improved on my digital coloring skills a bit by working with softer coloring. Much better than even my Naruto fan arts, though really I mean my Kiba one. Yay! ^_^
