• Hi all
    Just a notice, we recently discovered that someone got into a moderator account and started hard deleting a load of key and legacy threads...around 150 threads have been lost dating back to 2007 and some weeks ago so we can't roll the forums back.
    Luckily no personal data could be accessed by this moderator, and we've altered the permissions so hard deleting isn't possible in the future
    Sorry for any inconvenience with this and sorry for any lost posts.

Stylin' Art

If "art" is even the proper word, dunno. Here are some things I've done.

This was done for a friend, our PokeSonas. He was telling me how as a Charizard he wants to protect and care for his friends, so I used that as the idea to draw myself under him, being "protected" in a way.

My Haxorus character, Europe. Halfway through colouring this I realised he seems to have Shiny Nidoqueen colours with the blue from reg Nidoqueen, so that right there gave me the idea to include him in with Kaitii's storyline of being labrats. Europe was apart of the "designer Pokemon" section while Kaitii was a part of the "perfect battle Pokemon." When Kaitii went to destroy the lab once and for all, she met Europe and she took him home with her, feeling for his situation. Europe will often try to find berries or anything that stains to cover up his colours, as Kaitii would wear a cape to cover the scar on her back. Because of the testing he went through using Nidoqueen pigments/DNA, he has the tendency to be motherly at times.

Cute guy asked me to draw Honchkrow, I wasn't going to say no.

My secondary fursona, Stylin Gatita the Shinx.

I have a Furaffinity if anyone here uses that. Fkn furries

I appreciate critique. How else am I supposed to improve?

They're actually pretty good. What program did you use to draw them? So far, I haven't seen anything yet wherein I could give my critique as they're very nicely done and you have a really nice style in drawing. Hope you post more. :)

Thank you :3 I used gimp to do these. I draw them on paper, scan, then use the line tool in gimp to make the lineart since I don't have a tablet.

these look very good. i like the way you draw your art. hope to see more
Thank you, I'll be sure to post more~

Uhm, you could try more shading, try to decide where your light comes from before you start drawing.

Overall I like the pictures :)

Yeah, I've been trying to work on my shading a lot right now, so far I've been trying to mimic the shading from the official art, as seen in the Haxorus and Honchkrow images.

Thank you :3

I usually draw a big yellow blob where I want the light to come from and draw thin lines from it to my drawing so I can see exactly where the light hits it, and afterwards I'll remove the big blob.

I tried that out with my most recent drawing, seemed to work a bit. Though I kinda needed a better choice in the highlight colour since it seems too light.
