Bokuman - Amalgam Comics - Gold Miser (Patreon)

This is the colored version of the New Lineart Commission that Bokuman did for me.
This one is a color creation of a nemesis character that I created for the Amalgam character The Iron Lantern which I also had Bokuman do for me.
For the Iron Lantern’s Nemesis, I used a little something of my own fusion - I don’t exactly know who the original Iron Lantern’s arch-foe is so I created one. For this I fused The Iron Monger with Sinestro. However, as far as the name went I couldn’t go with something like “Iron Sinestro” or “Sinestro Monger” or anything like that since it wouldn’t exactly sound right. So I went into another direction. I know that the Lantern’s power has no effect on anything yellow so I started with yellow and that led me to the idea of gold. Thinking about gold and its effect on people led me to the word “miser”. Thus I created the new name “Gold Miser”.
After creating the name I went with the idea of how he would look. So in my mind I began to think about the Iron Monger himself and the armor that he has (namely the armor in the film). I thought to myself that if the Gold Miser has the power of the Yellow Ring he wouldn’t need some of the things that the Iron Monger’s armor has -namely the hydraulics on the legs, shoulders, and arms. As well as the weapons on its arms - definitely wouldn’t need any of that.
So taking those off left a far more bare-bones version of it. And just like the Iron Lantern I imagined the chest piece having Sinestro’s symbol on it. So I gathered that information and gave it to Bokuman and just like the magic that he has worked before has created this.
The coloring of Gold Miser was both complex as it was simple. For one I only had one major set of colors to worry about - the gold itself. What made it complex was the little parts and peices that were spread throughout the armor itself - which is such a wonderful gift of Bokuman’s that he can give life to these things in a way that only his talent could do.
After finalizing the highlights to make it more golden I said to myself, “It’s Finished”.
