Aaaah I'm finally back! Pardon my inactivity. Got caught up in lots of stuff in real life
Thank you very much for your comment!!
I definitely agree that her hand could need some revision ... but as the whole thing was done in coloured pencils, I couldn't correct mistakes as much as I needed to haha
I'm glad you like the Houndoom, too, and it seems to have the intended effect! I can totally see where you're coming from concerning the fire/glowing of the eyes. When I drew it (I think almost a year ago by now??) I thought it was a pretty cool idea ... but I agree that it might be a bit too much
I got new pieces to show, yay! (as usual, click the images for bigger resolution)
First a Mega Banette for a big group collaboration on deviantART, inspired by its Y dex entry:
"Strong feelings of hatred turned a puppet into a Pokémon. If it opens its mouth, its cursed energy escapes."
Then an Arcanine that almost looks like a companion piece to that Houndoom haha
Title is "Flare Blitz" and I think that says it all
Why is drawing fire so hard??
Here's two detail shots, too, if you're interested:
