    Well, it looks an awful lot like an art thread to me. So.
    Welcome to my art thread! Right now, the only art that
    will be shown in here is going to be stuff I've drawn on
    a nice little program called Corel Painter Essentials 4.
    I may add some traditional art later, after I've cleared
    all the junk (and the plush Metagross!) from my
    scanner. The images will be put in spoilers, because
    they're pretty darn big. Images go from newest (on
    top) to oldest (on bottom). The reason there's not
    very much in the art department is because I only
    got the tablet and program on my birthday, which
    was in the middle of December. There will be more
    in the future, but I may or may not update the first
    post. Yep, I'm lazy.

    ...and this, kids, is why you never meddle in the affairs of monsters you don't understand.

    WARNING: THIS NEXT PIECE OF ARTS CONTAINS SPOILERS FOR DELTA SPECIES WHICH HAVE NOT BEEN POSTED YET. If any of you read that and want to find out Grant's backstory as the story progresses, I recommend not looking at this. It's pretty obvious.

    Yes, they're song lyrics, but the song exists only in my head.

    Spoiler:

    Aeveon, a Flying-type eeveelution. This is the shiny form; regular is beige and orange-red. The reason I colored it shiny is because it will probably appear in Delta Species. (And now that I said it's shiny you're all going to know who's going to get it. Gah!) And yes... it's about six feet tall. Growlithe did it, so can Eevee, right?

    Spoiler:

    Fantasmeon, a Ghost-type eeveelution. Yes, I'm aware that it bears a striking resemblance to a Darigan Bori; that was not intended. D'aww, look at all the Eevee patches all over it.

    Spoiler:

    The second tablet test. This dude is... well, you'll see more of him. Maybe.

    Spoiler:

    First tablet test. I did this around mid-December, when everyone in my CCD class were forced to sing sings about Christmas Angels. The question, "What is a Christmas angel?" popped in my mind on multiple occasions, so I took it upon myself.

    The lineart is a little messy, but you definitely do have talent. Keep up the good work and I think you could become a great artist. :3
     
    I agree. I'm still getting used to the sensitive new tablet I got for my birthday, so a lot of these early drawings are going to be very scribbly. But trust me, I'm trying to work on that. Thank you for commenting! c:
     
    I really like the Ghost-type Eeveelution. Fantasmeon's a really nice name too.
     
    Thank you! :D The only reason I thought of 'fantasma' as a name was when I was researching names for a Ghost-type trainer and finally decided to go fish around in other languages until I found something cool. Of course, she ended up being called Anima, but still.

    And also, just a very fast traditional piece for you guys: Lord Rocco, Better Than You!

    Why is that, Ash K.? I'd like to know what put you off so I can try to improve it.
     
    Um, those eeveelutions don't look like they should evolve from an Eevee. The flying one has more of a tiger face. Actually, they both look more like Neopets in my opinion.

    Regardless, they all look fine as they are.
     
    Yes, the Flying-type Eeveelution does look a lot like a lion. But it's better than an Espeon with little angel wings, isn't it? |D Besides, just take a look at Probopass and Electivire. Plenty of funky evolutions in the series already, and with Eevee being so notable for its evolutionary skillz I think there was a good reason for it being so off the mark.

    ...And I see what you mean with the Neopet comment on Aeveon, but I don't really see it in Fantasmeon.
     
    I like that you made Aveon so huge, i always thought that eevee had much more potential than they ever gave it! (also, you named them well! :3~)
    I think Aveons paws are pretty massive though, usually, thats cool i like the things with massive paws, but part of me gets all: well it's a flying type, it doesn't really NEED paws, let alone massive ones that weigh it down. So personally, i think i would have given in much smaller ones, maybe less bulky legs. Though, having said that, i can kinda see, if you were basing it off a griffon or something why you would choose a larger form. (i do think the reasons people might say it looks like a neopet is the style of the paws/limbs though >.>')

    I like Fantasmeons patches, thats pretty cute, and its unimpressed expression is cool too. Also i like how you made it all rugged-looking with the fur and stuff, i'd like to see one angry, lips curled back and fur on end, because i think that would look pretty cool. *I just want a fantasmeon in-game now TT^TT.....*

    Good stuff, keep it up and good luck with that new tablet! ¦¬)
     
    It sort of was based off of a Neopet, but then again so are all of the other Pokémon with claws I draw. I remember really liking the old Lupe Neopets with their big old paws, and so I tend to draw most pawed animals with large ones. Aeveon was designed as a sort of transportation Pokémon more than anything else, so I wanted it to be able to move around and carry human weights on land and in the air. I knew Aeveon needed enormous wings to support its bulk and its rider, but the canvas wasn't big enough... and if there's one thing that Corel Painter is bad about, it's resizing the canvas. x .x And YES, I agree whole-heartedly about Fantasmeon in my party! I would not-quite-kill for one of those. xD

    Thank you for reviewing~!

    .w.
    Nice, i like the lopunnys floppy quiff thing you gave it, it looks really cool!
    The lyrics look interesting too ^^
     
    every time i review this forum i admire more
     
    Sheridan's getting a shiny Aeveon? o= Cool. Will anyone be getting Fantasmeon? I love how it looks, kinda edgey and punky.

    That dude,he's Fedora Man I assume? Looks pretty cool, I like the way you design the pokemon costumes (here and DS+).

    Your style is a little different to the usual pokemon kind (as expected really) but the original flair you put into your drawings is really nice. The only thing I can really pick out is that it looks like Fantasmeon is missing a foot, should the other not at least be partially visible? Overall fantastic work and I love your art (and fanfic).
     
    Yeah, Sheridan will probably be getting a shiny Aeveon eventually. Fantasmeon won't belong to one of the main cast, but I do have someone in mind.

    Yeah, that dude is Fedora Man. I see what you mean with Fantasmeon; I remember putting another line with the intention of coloring it in and making that the shadow of the back leg, but I guess when I was cleaning up the lineart (the art was made back in the time when I used the super-sensitive Scratchboard Tool for making lineart, and there were thin little squiggly lines all over - if you look hard at the Christmas angel you'll see what I mean) I must have erased the line thinking it was an error.

    Speaking of fanfics...

    Hehe, i don't know why, but when i saw your two 1st drawings, my first thought was - squiby? O_o xD Really. They really look like mascot to adopt, and they're cute.
