I was reading an old comic the other day, and on the back cover was an advertisement for Masters of the Universe: The Power of He-Man(a video game for the Intellivision and Atari 2600). It was actually a pretty good rendering of He-Man and his arch-enemy, battling valiantly in front of ol' Greyskull, and it made me realize that I haven't drawn a He-Man character since I was a little kid. So, I did something about it.
Here sits Skeletor, weary atop his throne at Snake Mountain. Near as I can tell, he's just noticed Evil-Lyn has decided to snap a photo. I'm not sure whether I think Skeletor's the kind of guy who gets grumpy when people take photos, or whether he's a total camera whore. I mean, he's got serious egotism issues, so it could go either way.
I'll do a better colored version of this later. I just finished the linework today, and blocked in the color nice and quick so I could post it here as WIP.
I looked at a few sources for the costume, including the action figure, and just sorta made-up the rest which, apparently, is what every artist working on MOTU stuff did in the '80s. I don't think I saw two different artists interpret the costume the same way.

Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
DeviantART is counting down to its 100 millionth deviation! Join in on the fun and take a look back at some of the most noteworthy deviations we've seen along the way. The deviant who uploads the 100 millionth deviation could win a special prize, too. Hurry, we're going to hit the 100 million mark soon!

It always distressed my child mind that Skeletor had a skull head and fleshy body. Still does, now that I think about it.
