Whoa when was the last time I was here?!

Hey gaiz. Just popping in to say hi. What's been happening? :D

Volta. September 25th, 2009 2:45 PM

Uhhhm. I believe the last time you were here was March 31st. Or I guess April 1st your time. o:

I dunno if much has been happening as of late. I'm almost done with my latest Lati-picture, which I'm entering into Emma's Lati-FC devID contest. :D

When you use that, you can be very accurate when creating a selection around what you want to cut/copy from one picture, and then you can simply paste it into another. I might be able to do a visual tutorial if you're still confused. xD

Woots! The Lasso tool? I thought it'll do nothing. I'll try it your way though. Thanks anyway.

Good luck with your contest thingy!

Yeah, I find the regular Lasso Tool useless, but the Polygonal Lasso Tool I use almost every day! xD

Thanks, and for anyone who's curious, here's my entry!:

Latie is so kawaii!!
But kinda small compared to Latios xD

Volta. September 27th, 2009 12:11 PM

Well Latias is two feet shorter than Latios. :o

Skymin September 27th, 2009 11:32 PM

I can tell your style has changed a bit since I last saw a Lati from you. But, I think I liked your old Latios' better, to be honest. D:

Wait whut? What's different about Latios? In that last one I did of Volta and Pairo, Pairo seemed obese. D: Unless you're talking about that sketch I did of Latios between then and now, then yeah, that is my favorite Latios pic so far. ¦D

All of my more recent Latios seem really pudgy (both of the time's I've drawn Pairo), and in that sketch and in this picture, they seem a little better.

HAY THANKS FOR REMINDING ME, I was gonna replace the current Lati Fanclub picture at the first post with this one. http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/i/m/imhappyplz.gif

Skymin September 28th, 2009 1:15 PM

Yeah, I'm talking about those random sketches you did of Latios.

Haha, that's kinda funny. You draw Latias too thin and Latios too fat. d:

Destinyfate September 28th, 2009 1:46 PM

Can I join this club!! Latias And Latios are one of my favourie pokemon

Here's some art I drew myself of my Lati OC Spock (yes he's named after the Vulcan on Star Trek)

This one was drawn by hand and colored in GIMP: http://i34.*.com/vhuph3.jpg


This one was drawn by hand and colored with colored pencils: http://i38.*.com/25sr9cj.jpg


This one was drawn by hand as well and also colored with colored pencils: http://i38.*.com/jaxjly.jpg

If you could please give me your honest opinion on why or why you don't like these pictures. Also if you feel I'm worthy of a watch please watch me on my DA please and thank you.

Skymin September 28th, 2009 7:45 PM

For some constructive critism, I say try and get your lines a little smoother, or you could use some kind of pen tool in GIMP, i think there's one. As well as try not to use such base bright colours, they make things look unrealistic. But, good job! I can barely draw Latios, so you've pretty much beaten me on that factor d:

Also viewable here.

Wow. That pic is FTW.

And xxLatiasxx, your first tries are good, but put more practice into it.

xxxLatiasxxx September 29th, 2009 4:42 PM

Thanks for the comments Viceroy Gawain and Maddaye I'm going to change the colors on Spock and try to get more practice in there isn't a lot of Lati drawing tutorials around so I used a reference to draw Latios I wish there were more tutorials on how to draw the Latis well thanks anyway sometimes I feel that I won't get any better at drawing the Latis but if I don't I don't if I do I do I wish more people would show me how to draw them.

Well, you could always do what I did. When I was first starting out drawing the Latis (and I really sucked when I did) I would either trace or copy original artwork. Eventually, I would get a feel for the shape of the Lati's body and how they could move. I'd say this process for me took quite a few months or almost a year before I got much better, and I'm still practicing and improving today.

For you, I'd also recommend getting some practice with simple pencil lines. Your lines look a little bit rough. Practice drawing relaxed, flowing lines of varying length and curve. Try not to go too slowly, and don't draw too fast either. You need to try to find that certain speed that you're comfortable drawing with. Rough sketching is also great for improving confidence with lines.

♣Gawain♣ October 1st, 2009 4:13 AM

Just follow his advice and you'll be a pro in no time! XD

Anyways, it's been ages since we have a topic here, so:

What are the things that make your Latios/Latias recognizable to you?

Gawain's white skin is a bit "whiter" than others, and he wears an aeronaut googles and scarf, plus a right handed battle glove. lolz

No problem! :D Good luck with your drawing.

... uh, what do you mean by this? do you mean by OCs?

Volta. October 1st, 2009 2:44 PM

Yeah, I suppose he's talking about Pokésonas/Latisonas. Well, Volta is pretty distinguishable. She has lightning markings on her arms and wings, has brightly glowing yellow eyes, and wears a severed extension cord around her neck. Pairo has fire markings on his wings and arms, has brightly glowing red eyes, and wears a flame-pattern scarf around his neck.

Volta and Pairo are viewable here:

Oh look, activity!

What are the things that make your Latios/Latias recognizable to you?

Hmm. Well, my Latios redesign has swept-back ears and wings, a split tail, and is a few shades darker than the official design. I don't have an original Latias character in terms of outward appearance, but the one in the Chronicles has a very different demeanor than the canon Latias. She's typically calm and is always thinking, which lends itself to her default facial expression, which I call "the look" for lack of anything more original.


♣Gawain♣ October 4th, 2009 7:42 AM

Nice pic! Maybe I'll post mine sometime. It'll be AWESOME like volta(except it's a sketch and not photoshopped lolz).

Activity! Who'da thought?!

Also, whatever happened to your Latias with the prosthetic wings? I always found her to be uniquely creative.

Haha, thanks for the indirect compliment I suppose. x} I look forward to seeing your design.


Also, interesting news in the HG/SS department, at least for myself, who has fallen behind in the news regarding Pokémon games. According to this list on Serebii, Latias and Latios are in fact obtainable in-game without the need to transfer from Sapphire/Emerald. Needless to say, I'm pretty happy about this. xD I'd like to challenge myself to catch another near-"perfect" Latias again, and this time not forget to name her Volta. xP

I believe that Latias only roams in HeartGold and Latios only roams in SoulSilver, though it hasn't been confirmed yet. This kind of splits me up, because Latias and Kyogre are in HG while Skarmory is in SS. Guess I'll have to transfer Skarmory then. XD

Well, my Latios is black, is a robot, and has jet engines...



Also, here is my latest Latias pic :'D

That's swell. It's like in R/S, only one is to be obtained in game. In Emerald, you may obtain 2, but one is to be obtained if you have an Eon Ticket(right?). And I don't think it'll be another on in the upcoming events.

Ha. I'll be catching my awesome and Uber Latios(da, da, it has to be Timid. And the name's still Gawain) in HG/SS in Christmas.


^I like all your pic(lol robo-latios). But Latias' eyes are somewhat smallish.

Really? That's odd, because Latias and Kyogre were originally in the cool-colored Sapphire, while Latios and Groudon were in the warm-colored Ruby. I guess they switched it up then, in which case I'm now getting HeartGold! XD

Oh? She was initially just a nod to an idea I had abandoned, but she is a pretty cool character. Honestly I really don't have anything to use her for. ;_; I could draw her more, but she's just kinda there.

And dude! Lusankya! That art is insane! I need to step it up!
