Wow you have really cool ideas. I love the water starter.
My only one critique is that..
The non-evolved starters aren't quite "babyish" enough compared to officials. It's just something I noticed, it doesn't really impact their visual appeal though.
Something else I noticed (may or may not be design choice) is that on a few Pokemon the heads look proportionately large.
But really dude, if that Gryphon and water starter were real... I'd friggin' love them. I love them now, anyway. And you have some cool typings.
I see what you're saying with the starters and I'll try to make them more "babyish" when I get better at digital art and can make the digital versions. :)
As for the large heads I don't really notice this, except with Nocupine and Raicupine, where I completely agree and will try to fix this too when I go digital.
I put a lot of thought in my designs and try to make them look as interesting as I possibly can, as well as have cool, good, and unique typings. Happy to hear I'm succeeding so far. :D
Thank you for taking the time to look over my art and giving me some constructive criticism. :)
