here's the line art. I redraw everithing to fit the format I wanted and added some lement in the background to make it more interesting.

this is the color basic plasters. I also changed the color of the lineart to dark red. later on when all shadows are ready I'll mix it with the colors. with the smudge tool in photoshop.

here I finish the shadow tones, as you can notice I already smudge the robot in the background.
next step will be the lights.

here's the final coloring. maybe I'll add some grain in the final image and adjust the color balance.

Excellent picture. Love the cartoon style which is really rare in this challenge. Too bad you have not show some wips before, cgtalkers could have help you improve the quality of it to make it perfect.
Anyway I love it.

With all the tons of entries that almost crash you under their weight with details and stuff - this is such a pleasure to the eyes. Simple yet very effective.
Besides that top right tentacle is just plain awesome!
