Takoto's Art Thread [ mostly Pokémon, partially animals ]

[Takoto]

Hey all

I like Pokémon and animals and occasionally my own characters. Going to throw some of my pieces out onto here. Always open to constructive criticism.

Will also link down to tumblr post of the image, as they can be viewed bigger there (I don't want to post them massive on here as it'll stretch the forum thread).

Lurantis & Fomantis for an IRL friend (who I think is on here, but I don't know their username...)

Venipede, Scolipede and Whirlipede

I should have warned, I like bugs a lot...

And pigeons, I really love pigeons... !!

Sneasel is pretty cool

My favourite animals are cats though,

Espurr is one of my favourite Pokémon

Unsurprisingly, I draw myself as a pigeon cat mix

Gardevoir is also one of my favourite Pokémon...!!

I also did some charts on pigeons (and am currently doing more) and some fake colour morphs for sun beetles

Part 1

Part 2

one day I'll do a chart of actual real colour morphs of sun beetles

I have a ton more Pokemon fanart on my tumblr but this first post is probably really long now so have some assorted sketches and older arts

If you wanna check out more of my stuff and or my older stuff (though I'll probably try to update this thread every time I draw something Pokémon related!!) I can be found here;

• Tumblr Art Blog (main place I post)
• DeviantArt
• Twitter
• Patreon
• Pixiv

Thank you for looking!!

Update #1

It's Mew... !

Big Version Here

I started drawing this a few days ago... but let's just say it was to celebrate the potential new Mew thing in Pokémon GO...

Update #2

With the release of the Mew update in Pokémon GO, below is a speed paint for the above picture...!!

I also designed a fakemon for the first time. It's not... very good because I tried very hard to stay within the style of the official art, so I think it ended up a bit lifeless. I recoloured it in my style.

Ooooh, so cute!!! I love how fluffy and fun your style is, I just want to hug every single one of them. Your shading is on point, too, I love it! And you got me, I'm a sucker for pastel colors. If I could give you any constructive criticism based on what I've seen so far, it would be to loosen up a little bit, and add some dynamic in there. You've got the coloring thing down, but I would love to see your work move and breathe a little bit more.

A really cute art style, really like the style used in Pokémon. The colors are nicely done. ^_^

Update #3

I haven't updated in a month aaaa Work has been kicking my butt, and I got sick for over a week the last week OTL... I've been off work almost 10 days BUT I'm almost better!! Darn auto-immune disorders. Haven't gotten to draw as much as I'd like.

Thank you so much!! Pastels are my weakness, and I default to them a lot ahaha
I'm currently trying to get better at gesture drawing! So hopefully that's a step in the right direction to becoming more fluid when it comes to poses and stuff! Though I must admit, I find it really hard and dynamic stuff has never been my strong point... all the more reason to practise it though!! :33

Thank you !! > w < !!

Your art is incredible Takoto, your lines crisp and cell shading perfect! I especially like your pigeon guides. A little taste of home!

 

[WishIhadaManafi5]

Love your work, Takoto! So beautifully done and I love the way you color and shade it.
