Hey, all! I've been trying to motivate myself to start drawing more regularly again so I figured I'd make a thread where I can post things as I finish them! uwu
Please do not re-post any of my artwork, even with credit. If you'd like to re-blog it, however, it you can generally find it posted on my blog ([email protected])!

I do not take requests at this time, however suggestions for specific pokemon you'd like to see drawn are always welcome! c:

Pokemon

Animal Crossing

Neopets

Note: no crits, please, unless I specifically ask for them on a certain picture. Thank you!

Also, is neopets still a thing?
Yep, Neopets is still as active as ever. c: There are a ton of folks who are still playing from when they started in their childhood (just like Pokemon), or who came back and made new accounts.
It has evolved quite a bit since then but I still enjoy it (especially now that my art is finally good enough for the beauty contest/art gallery haha).

Thank you all for the kind comments!

That's cool, using a custom brush. Is it easy making one? (I just use what's available in Photoshop XD)
Unfortunately I'm no help with that! haha I didn't make mine, another artist I follow posted their brush settings for folks to use if they wanted.
I still sometimes use other settings (ex: on the shiny eevee drawing), but the sketchy brush is probably my favorite. c:

Oh okay. Do you have a link?

EDIT: On closer inspection, Eevee does look like it's drawn with a different brush. Cool.

That paperish artstyle is so beautiful :D
Especially your neopets stuff brings back a lot of memories.
I particularly loved the design of some neopets, but I loved the way you've drawn them in your style.
Including your Pokemon too -The charmander especially has to be my favourite!

There's something about it that reminds me about another artist. Is there any artist in particular that inspires you?

Your style is really cute. I love the colours and am really interested to see more work from you. Great job! Recommendations for future Pokemon would be Reuniclus, Liepard, Shuckle and Volcarona. It's not because they're my favourites or anything

Thank you kindly! My style wasn't really influenced by one person in particular---lately I find myself drawing inspiration from Kirsten Sjursen-Lien, Louie Zong, and Olivie Huynh but I guess in general you tend to pick up bits and pieces of other artists' techniques as you look at art and go "Oh that's neat, I want to try that in my style!", so I've probably been inspired/influenced by a lot of different folks over the years. c:

Aah, Volcarona is one of my favorites! I'm glad to find another fan of the cute little fire moth. :D

Your style is so unique! It lends so well to the subject of your work, making each Pokémon/Neopet creatures just jump off the screen. I love how clean and contained your lines are too, and your use of color is spectacular. I'm also very, very glad to see more Animal Crossing are around these parts! It's a personal favorite of mine, so it always makes me smile. :) Please keep it up!

Well I really can't think of anything else but "absolutely adorable" to describe your drawings hehe
You have a quite distinct and very pleasant style, it just gives off something very ... calming :>

I gotta say though, I would be really interested in maybe seeing a "bigger" drawing done by you, like with a complete background!

Feel free to ask for skype details if you'd like to talk more! :>

Thank you! I've done a few pieces with backgrounds but I'm still fairly inexperienced so I'm a bit self-conscious about showing them off. :x If you're curious, though, you can find a few on my deviantART page.
Admittedly there's not a lot of them since I tend to mostly draw for fun/stress-relief and it's rare for me to be in the mood to draw a full illustration haha.

omg, your art work is adorable. you have a cute kawaii and chibi style going on! i must say, i adore the espeon drawing<3 *my favorite pokemon hehe* i would say, i would work on adding some more shadings to the drawings. i can tell you have two different styles, more stylized and then more sketchy. so i can see that the more sketchy ones do not have shadows going on, which is okay! i can't wait to see more.
