a study in pokemon drawings: the zergrush story (art, many large images)

[lolin]

thanks

it took longer than i expected, but i learned even more about how to use layers

made layers for different colors, the outline/inking, the shading, the background

really, everything

MORE LAYERS

ALWAYS LAYERS

[Aeri]

like a good parfait

[xMommaWickedx]

That looks great!... You did awesome with the shading!... :3

Yes, layers are very important, especially with digital art... The more layers the better!... But you also need to know when it's too much, like with most art... XD

[lolin]

i'm not really happy with how it turned out, but i spent so much time on it i am now obligated to show it off



tah-dah~ slakoth

it was much better on paper than on tablet

swapping back and forth from tablet to pencil is tricky

[Aeri]

XD I love him!!! so cute! I dont know that pokemon

[lolin]

gen iii, ruby/sapphire/emerald

it is a completely useless pokemon because it loses a turn every other turn (from slacking off), but it evolves into a real powerhouse (that has the same ability)

[Aeri]

what's the evolved form called

[lolin]

slaking

[Aeri]

HAHAHAHA he's giving me bedroom eyes

[lolin]

oh my

[lolin]

so i decided to redraw an old one...

this one, in particular



here's the sketch of it:



and a colored verison:



getting more used to digital coloring, it's pretty fun

Noodle bought me a book on coloring with colored pencils, so i'mma try some when that book gets here

and yes the arms are in the wrong place, at least the left arm

[Aeri]

I always love seeing redo's on a drawing

[lolin]

me too

i can't wait to see how much my skills irmprove after another month of drawing

...i should set a reminder on my calendar to see, and maybe redraw the clefairy again...

[Aeri]

yeah!

[lolin]

also redrew and colored the cubone



it legs are wonky, but i like them

also did some value practice with this piece
