Adamaru - The Extra Mile Companion Character Art Challenge

Hello guys !
I hope you are all having fun in your daily art journeys :D
I has took me nearly a week of all nighters and most of my weekends for a month but I finally made it! My entry for "The Extra Mile Companion Character Art Challenge" is now done.

let me introduce you to "Adamaru" or "Adam" the radio operator!
Adamaru is a short name for Adínila Amarú which means "the blind" or "does not see yet" in the Akkadian Language.
His name comes from the fact that he was one of the less developed beings of his kind and was mocked for that reason.
Adam is an evolved spices of Cheloniidae that grew up in aquatic environments up until they started to get they hands on technology and become terrestrial creatures.
Their small size, large eyes, palmed limbs and scally skin make the Cheloniidae great swimmers and overall great survivor in aquatic environments.
Adam makes a great companion as he can see in the dark, breath underwater and he has a kind of synaesthesia that helps him see sounds or ultrasounds.

I want to thank all the great artists that share my journey and help me grow.
I would also like to specialy thank the TEM community for getting me inspired every day!
Thank you Pablo for the great community and continuous help and support, it makes my life so much more greater!
