Think I'll just show a couple pieces I've done to start. If people enjoy them, I'll post more.

So, no one cares for my art? ... ... Going to show some more. ... If this isn't what people want to see then I give up.

omg the sprigatito and litten one :P
Big fan of the Hydreigon one, the colours seem a bit off but I really love the techniques and style here

 

[Crustan]

Crazy style :O

I dig the sketchy aesthetic of this!!

Ohhh the Hydreigon is very unique! I like it!

Thanks guys, and about the Hydreigon one. Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity, is a special fave to me being one of the earliest games I played on the 3DS and the first Pokemon game I got to play for the system.

This latest piece was done for my boss for the store he runs. We sell television DVDs. He suddenly asked me to provide the sales banner art for Pokemon Day early. If you're wondering why so many Pokemon kitties. DVD Universe has a cat theme to its art throughout the site.

i really like your art style! especially how the solgaleo looks there in the most recent piece you've done :)
the cat theme is on point and should be done more tbh

Thank you, I trained myself to be a penciler years ago. Doing this banner let me flex those comic book art focused muscles, even though manga isn't normally what I produce. My normal sales banners are almost always short comics but a fixed style and rarely fan art.

I remember telling Jon (boss/friend) Pokemon has many kitty Pokemon, and my original concept for this would have used all of them. But those banners are normally at 570x400 pixels. Picture drawing politely all of them in that space to a good image? Even this which is what Jon refers to as a full page banner ... I still felt drawing in all the kitties was like a scene overload. And get this? I considered adding in more mice to the scene like Marill, Tandemaus, and Dedenne.
