Sandeon is a Pokemon sometimes mentioned in Egyptian mythology as a guardian of the deceased. In ancient Egypt, this Pokemon was called upon to guard the tombs of the Pharaohs.

Parts of Sandeon's fur, which is a type of special sand, turn to glass. This special glass is lightweight and easy to carry around. If light passes through specific areas of the class, light is magnified and melts more sand to turn it to glass.

Entry for the Eevee Fan Club. I was invited to enter so I decided to make something. The picture you see here I started yesterday from a projected I discontinued last time this contest was offered last year. I had a different idea for an entry but I figured it was too hard and time consuming to start from scratch with my schedule. This was actually rather relaxing to do this picture for a change.

I wanted to make a longer description but nothing else came to mind. I think that is going to hurt my entry. ><

Only a single filter was used on this picture and that was a static filter to create the texture in the sand in the foreground. Everything else is painted digitally. This took quite some time to do too. I have no idea how long though.

What an amazing idea! Ground element never gets enough love, and Eeveelutions are always fun. One thing I love about this is the intense depth and realism it has, something we Pokemon fans are rarely treated to. And a full-blown backdrop is always amazing to see. The background fits so well with the design and with the description, too. The lighting intrigues me. It's a bit unrealistic in how brightly lit the foreground and the subject are compared to the night sky, but deserts are known for odd lighting and the effect is very striking.

Great job on the entire thing. It came out amazing!

It is my prized, realistic surrealism style. ^^

I figured I would do glass for ground since I have never seen it before. Kinda reminds me of a Sandshrew.

Thank you.

Oh cool! The glass is a very unique part, I really like it. Also, a ground eeveeloution is rarely drawn so this is pretty unique I think. Lovely design, Eclipsis ^-^

Thank you. I actually got this idea from a game called Rise of Legends in that some of the creatures you can control use "Glass" magic.
