Hahha! (:
Thanks for your insight! The human is actually supposed to look awkward, long and raunchy. It's my cartoony style, and that doesn't bother me since I can draw people realistically quite well. On another note, his collar bone is off to the side a tad much, and I should've fixed it.
On Zapdos, you're absolutely right. His beak is a little long and his body a tad short. A simple mistake, but not really easy to fix when I use a mouse. lol
I'm actually not pleased with the lightning myself, and I would redo it in a heartbeat.
On Moltres and Articuno: Yes, I rather like them! I think they're my favorite part of this picture. I like the background, too, and thank you for the compliments. <3
On the houndoom and Pichu, I did not draw them. They are the work of another artist whom I was sharing the canvas with. (:

On the wallpaper: Thank you very much, Gavvy! Those were the only brushes I had at the time and I used all of them except the GIMP originals of course. It's spaced kinda weird because I made this for my own personal use and have OCD about images being too busy where I keep my icons, and that is the only reason. I later decided to make the background public. It's also spaced so that the image of the model sitting down is leaning on the side of the screen, and that image is, after all, the focus of the paper.
