Look at this beautiful art collaboration with the very lovely artist, Blanca Parga~!

We used a base, I did the line art, and she made the magic happen~!

Today, I bring to you: my entry for a coloring page contest being held by @theoasiswinds! She gave us a lovely line art piece drawn by her hand to render however we wished! As soon as I saw the post for the contest, I knew I was going to join, and I'm so excited that this piece turned out decent.

I was very inspired by the color palette from the Broadway Phantom poster, so I wanted to go with a very musical-inspired piece. I thought Christine sitting in a puddle of her skirts while also sitting in a literal puddle was too good an opportunity to pass up, though it was definitely the part that stressed me out the most lol. In the end, this piece ended up taking just shy of 15 hours to complete, which is insane, but I really enjoyed every minute of working on this.

Gaunt, willowy, white-haired, scowling. An unceremonial description for a man who doesn't give a whit about what he looks like. His robes are often torn and dirty, and twigs and leaves get stuck in his unruly mane, which he uses to hide his long, pointed ears. He has the appearance of a man in his fifties or early sixties, though of course, his existence is nowhere near as straightforward. He wears a full, grayish-white beard. His eyes, the only objectively beautiful feature of his otherwise stern, lined face, are of a glowing amber color, with remarkably long lashes.

Below the cut (hidden for those who would prefer to stick with the image in their own heads) is Merlin's art by the amazing @/theoasiswinds!
