A bit of my PokeArt
 
I've been on a bit of a Poke-kick lately and have been drawing from the cards that my little brother has from the "olden days"

WARNING: I prefer drawings/colors/paints, rather than graphical art for myself. These are not perfect, and my scanner is kind of crappy... I'm just looking for a bit of constructive criticism and/or praise to stroke my artistic ego. If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all. I do however, take constructive criticism quite well, so that is welcome.

I've recently gotten back into Pokemon and Drawing... so these are basically my practice images. Eventually I'd like to make battle scenes, and get a bit deeper into details. Now I have to figure out how to add images... *ponder ponder*

More will be posted (if I get feedback, or requests to post more) as the thread goes on.

All of these are done starting with pencil, then outlined in black gel ink, and colored in with colored pencils.

Haha! There's sure a lot of talented people here in this Forum! That hand-draws you've made sure amaze me! Guess you're good at hand-draw skills! Keep it up! ;)

That's probably my worst one... Just a really off day -.-

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v224/ladyfiaragc/Pikachu.jpg

Gotta have a Pikachu.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v224/ladyfiaragc/Jigglypuff.jpg

I think I might make another picture of him when he's all angry with his marker haha.

Hibaru May 31st, 2010 6:46 PM

Haha! That Jigglypuff is Adorable you know! They're cute! I like it :)

Late May 31st, 2010 8:38 PM

Those are good but you should try to do different poses (it needs more skills and imagination).
Please, post more.

Indeed. As I said, I'm basically just starting out here and drawing straight from cards or pictures, as I get more comfortable with drawing Pokemon I will draw them in different poses/battling, ect. Thank you for the critisism though :D

Hibaru May 31st, 2010 9:25 PM

Still look good to me! ;)

Alkaide May 31st, 2010 10:15 PM

Bulbasaur and Scyther are reeealy done well.

I like the shading done on Bulbasaur's seed.

These are quite impressive, keep up the good work.

ThePinkDragon May 31st, 2010 10:21 PM

Machop's head is a bit big and Pikachu looks a little square. Other than that these are lovely! I have a lot of respect for an artist that still uses their hands and "primitive tools" to do artwork and do it well. Computer art is getting too mainstream, I am feeling so nostalgic seeing something hand-drawn that doesn't have an "Undo" button on it. Hand-drawing takes real talent! Keep it up!

Hibaru June 1st, 2010 12:23 AM

Haha! I'm looking forward to see your next Draw! But remember! Keep up the Good Work you got there! :D

Pokekoks June 1st, 2010 12:56 AM

Best of your works in my opinion is Scyther, it turned out very nice.
Pikachu has too small stacked too close together legs.

But ur good at drawing, keep up ur work :D

lionrt60 June 1st, 2010 1:41 AM

I agree scyther was your best drawing, i am actually going to subscribe:D

ladyfiaragc June 1st, 2010 7:00 AM

PinkyD, I completely agree. I respect people who can do the computer art because it does take a bit of a steady hand, and a fair amount of talent, at least from what I know of using Photoshop or things like that. I only ever once made a graphic on the computer with Photoshop and I had to Youtube a video on how to make a forum sig. haha Turned out pretty well though.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v224/ladyfiaragc/Paras.jpg

Paras looks a bit lopsided... but he's cuter than cute. I recently watched episode "The Problem With Paras" and he was adoreable! So I had to give it a shot.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v224/ladyfiaragc/Mew.jpg

This was inspired by the movie case from "Mew VS Mewtwo" I had never actually seen Mew in an episode before, but he's pretty funny as far as being sneaky and bouncing around on the little pink psychic ball he can create.

Hibaru June 1st, 2010 7:07 AM

Those stuff....Is great!!! I love it! Keep it up my good friend! Love your work! Kudos! ;)
Haha! Your skills really are something huh? :D

NessStar3000 June 1st, 2010 7:09 AM

Your Bulbasaur, Bidoof, Scyther, and Mew drawings caught most of my attention out of the whole selection. If I'm correct, I can see the subtle difference in colors within the shades of the drawings and it's always splendid to see the results of such a technique under this matter.

Don't be afraid to give your own poses and ideas a try, especially with pokemon. Nevertheless, your potential shown here only presents promising improvements if you intend to keep up the good work.

ladyfiaragc June 1st, 2010 7:13 AM

*blushes*
Thank you so much! I do intend to continue that's for sure.
The only reason I had stopped for a while is because life kinda took the front seat and took me for a ride.
I've learned how to balance that, and make art a PART of my life, not separate ^.^

dreffen June 1st, 2010 7:16 AM

I'm proud to say that I'm engaged with that fantastic artist making these!

And she also showed me this awesome site :D

Uecil June 1st, 2010 7:17 AM

Aww, those are all so Kawaii :3
nice drawings, I think the Paras, Bidoof, Scyther and Mew ones are the best.

Yeah! I can see whats your point. You and I...Guess we're the same huh? I love drawing too! That looks on my Avatar Hibaru guy here! :D
No worries! Your pictures are Great!

ladyfiaragc June 1st, 2010 9:09 AM

Here's a few more. Currently in progress is a squirtle and a charmander. I would say, mid-end of this month I'll start getting a little more creative with the drawings, just want to get the hang of Pokemon a little more before I start new poses/scenes ect.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v224/ladyfiaragc/Mankey.jpg

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v224/ladyfiaragc/Magikarp.jpg

This one's definitely my favorite. I'm not a fan of magikarp in particular... I just find his uselessness appealing for a picture.

I'm listening to Daughtry, and I'm completely bored, so I'm posting some more. Kinda browsing through the art... *yawn* maybe I'll sleep.

Hibaru June 1st, 2010 8:07 PM

They're COOL! The Magikarp is funny! :D And Mankey is Good! But the Dratini looks Cute! That's great! Keep it up my friend! ;)

Late June 1st, 2010 8:31 PM

Nice work again. I like KOFFING! (I love when it says it's name in anime)

Haha yea. I've been re-watching all of the Pokemon episodes online and I just couldn't get enough of his "KOFFING!" had to add it in there ^.^

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v224/ladyfiaragc/Butterfree.jpg

This is the last of my Pokeart until I scan in the new stuff that I've drawn recently. I like this one so much... I'm thinking about making it a tattoo. ^.^

peopleperson June 1st, 2010 10:38 PM

nice butterfree.. and signature :D

Hibaru June 1st, 2010 10:42 PM

I'm looking forward to see Charmander and Squirtle! Keep it up buddy! :D
Anyway, the Butterfree looks good! I like it!

ladyfiaragc June 3rd, 2010 4:45 PM

Finally got around to scanning in my charmander and squirtle.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v224/ladyfiaragc/Charmander.jpg

His head's a bit awkward, but oh well! Stuff happens.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v224/ladyfiaragc/Squirtle.jpg

So should have added the Squirtle Squad glasses...

Hibaru June 3rd, 2010 10:50 PM

That's another great works you've made there! Keep it up! I love both of them! :D

ladyfiaragc June 4th, 2010 10:12 AM

A couple more that I worked on after Charmander and Squirtle ^.^

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v224/ladyfiaragc/Mantyke.jpg

He's so cute, I had to draw me a mantyke

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v224/ladyfiaragc/Magnamite.jpg

Turned out a lot better than I thought, but his top screw is crooked, and I didn't notice it until after I did the pen outline. :(

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v224/ladyfiaragc/Chikorita.jpg

Really proud of this one.

Hibaru June 4th, 2010 8:01 PM

Hahaha! Those are another great works! The Mantyke sure is Cute! I'm looking forward for another work! Keep it up buddy! ;)

ladyfiaragc June 12th, 2010 3:20 PM

Well it's been a bit, but I've been kinda busy.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v224/ladyfiaragc/Clefairy.jpg

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v224/ladyfiaragc/Cyndaquil.jpg

I'm going to have to redraw this one sometime. I kinda messed him up quite a bit.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v224/ladyfiaragc/Shellder.jpg


And as a little somethin somethin... I wrote a letter to Nintendo about HeartGold. In return, they sent me this!
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v224/ladyfiaragc/Nintendo.jpg

Hibaru June 13th, 2010 2:01 AM

Those Pokemon kinda cute too! Good Job! I'm also been busy too!

ladyfiaragc June 15th, 2010 7:59 PM

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v224/ladyfiaragc/Raticate.jpg

Raticate. Oh yea... he's a bad mofo! Lol

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v224/ladyfiaragc/Haunter.jpg

Haunter with a silly face, like from the ghost episode. As per my fiance's request.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v224/ladyfiaragc/Goldeen.jpg

And I'm pretty proud of this goldeen... turned out better than I thought it would.

Hibaru July 1st, 2010 3:01 AM

Good Job! Its been a long time too though. Hahaha!

GrifSpark July 1st, 2010 10:21 AM

I love the Haunter. He's one of my favourite Ghost-Type Pokemon. And the Mew's a great success.

I like to draw too, primarily Fakemon. But I still need practise. Anyways I really like the drawings.

Lickitricky July 1st, 2010 12:06 PM

I love it! I adore the smooth, light shading you do, because it gives the picture a lot of depth and liveliness.
You should soon start drawing with some intense, colorful shading, because its obvious that you really know what you're doing, and I would love to see more of it ^^
Also, you should start drawing backrounds when you're ready for it :) you've got a lot of artistic potential.

*Subscribed*

@lpha July 9th, 2010 2:23 AM

That Scyther Looks WICKED awesome!
when i mean awesome,
i mean really mean AWESOME!

Keep it up!

TwinkleClefable July 9th, 2010 2:59 AM

$50 for Clefairy Work. :)

beca July 12th, 2010 8:39 AM

Ahhh Bulbasaur :cer_love:
Awesome job on these. The shading on Bulbasaur's bulb looks great ;D
I also like the little music note feature on your Jigglypuff drawing; adorable =]
