The new piece is delightfully cheesy and Frazetta-like. I don't think it's over-saturated at all, unless you wanted a more muted look. It looks like a big leap forward in terms of painting skills compared to your previous posts. Really nice midtones and rendering all around.
Thanks very much for the kind words @PubicEnemy! anytime someone mentions Frazetta-like in regards to my work I know im on the right track as all his work inspired the heck out of me. You made my day with that :)
Yeah I wasn't going for the muted look its more that I was paranoid from staring at it too long that i may have over done the bright parts. usually in my process I tend to over saturate my base layers to show contrast then dial it back after when i progress to lighting, and I never really dialed this one back. Maybe that means Im getting better at judging my base colors... ha! more likely just got lucky
