Description Done for the Pokemon-Design Challenge going around Tumblr right now. Go to Random Pokemon Generator [link] and generate 1 Pokemon. From that Pokemon you’re to come up with 3 new concept ideas to re-vamp the original idea! You can’t keep generating Pokemon until you get one that you’re pleased with; you get who you get. Even if it’s a random Voltorb or a Ditto, it’s a fantastic exercise to boost your skills!

I got Slugma my first go and was honestly pretty disappointed…but I am super happy with how my 3 designs turned out
Pencil base, gone over in a Black Bic pen.

Instead of posting on Tumblr, please reblog from me here: [link]

The middle slugma is a cool concept and the bottom one is awesome.

Very cool designs! I love the bottom one especially. The Pokemon sprite's body always looked kinda blobby to me, but your drawing definitely nailed the "slug" aspect of Slugma. The feline-esk design is very unique too.

Awesome designs. I'm so favouriting this and going to give the challenge a go just as something to try and get my creativity going again! Thanks!

FireStump In reply to TheArtisticBookworm [2013-03-26 23:02:48 +0000 UTC]

Thank you and yes! I would LOVE to see what you come up with! That's why I'm doing it as well, just for practice and to test my imagination and creativity

Man, I'd love to do this idea, but for a contest on DA. Maybe, if it'd be possible, we could round up a couple people to be hosts of the contest along with us? The reason I'm asking because I'm not sure if i'd be able to use the almost exact same contest on here...

FireStump In reply to AchievementHuntress [2013-03-26 23:05:45 +0000 UTC]

You should do it even if it isn't a contest; it's a great way to test your creativity and imagination and build some new skills! Honestly, I'm surprised as hell that I came up with what I did O.o That would be awesome though (the contest)! And I have no idea, but I don't see why you couldn't use the same idea

AchievementHuntress In reply to FireStump [2013-03-26 23:07:48 +0000 UTC]

Alright! I probably will. After spring break (or during) then I might post some journal asking about it. and thank you for the inspiration, this drawing is really beautiful. You should re-do one digitally, with color maybe.

You're welcome
I suck at coloring -___- I really wish I knew how to use Photoshop because then I would. I was thinking about printing this out though and coloring it with colored pencils or something.

I have it but can't do anything because it confuses me lol

XD lol so many buttons!

FireStump In reply to AchievementHuntress [2013-03-27 04:43:50 +0000 UTC]

Exactly. This button does one thing while this one does something similar but different and that one over there says it does what the first one does but in reality it doesn't do that at all. It's like...well...why can't you just SPELL IT OUT for me instead of being so confusing?! My lanta!
