Description
Just felt like drawing Kahan ( [link] ) again, since the contest is ending in two days.You know, initially those purple things were just unspecified things with points at the end. But several people seemed to think they were connected to Kahan's arms/ears/things, so I don't think I'll reveal it. People can interpret it as they like.
I know the cord isn't shaded, sorry. I couldn't shade it in any way that looked correct, it's just too thin. Sorry.
As always, please fave and comment!
The contest to find out what Kahan looks like on the other side of that portal ends in two days- hurry up! [link]

Being in your contest has made me have to stare at the same two reference for a good long while now -- I'm rather happy you uploaded this, given now I have a better reference to work with.
First, the pros.e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/b… " width="10" height="10" alt="
" title="Bullet; Blue"/> I don't know what you did the portal with, but it looks brilliant. Whatever tools you use to make that "scratchy" effect -- KEEP USING THEM.

e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/b… " width="10" height="10" alt="
" title="Bullet; Blue"/> I actually like how the cord isn't shaded -- for two reasons. First, it makes it seem like the unshaded cord is almost nonexistent and is simply "bridging the gap", if you get what I mean (kind of that it's half in the portal, half out, and unaffected by this world's laws as of yet)? Second... it totally goes along with my contest entry.
e.deviantart.net/emoticons/x/x… " width="15" height="15" alt="
" title="XD"/>
e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/b… " width="10" height="10" alt="
" title="Bullet; Blue"/> I like how you kept the ends of the purple structures hidden while not making it look like you forgot to draw the ends or "hoped" the arms/ears would hide them. It looks mysterious rather than a cop-out. I like it.
e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s… " width="15" height="15" alt="
" title="
(Smile)"/>
Now the cons, though to be honest, I didn't see that much wrong with this piece, so most of these will be nitpicks.e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/b… " width="10" height="10" alt="
" title="Bullet; Red"/> Kahan's right arm/ear looks twisted in an odd way, almost so that the shading looks fake. Might just be my blindness. xD
e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/b… " width="10" height="10" alt="
" title="Bullet; Red"/> Its face is rather deep in shadow compared to the rest of it, and while I can see that possibly being done for a reason, it looks a bit odd.
Nice work overall. Looking forward to the other side of the portal. a.deviantart.net/avatars/w/o/w… " alt=" " title="woooplz"/>

Probably should have made this earlier.
-I didn't use a tool. That was all by hand. And yes, it took forever.
-Ooh, I like that. I'm using that reasoning for any further issues related to Kahan. Glad it goes along with your contest entry, hope to see it soon.
-I figured I probably shouldn't "reveal" them. It's probably better that way.
-I'm not sure I see what you mean, but alright...
-Well, it was to make it look intimidating and add some depth, but compared to the rest it does look a bit odd.
Thanks! And I'm thinking that I'll actually reveal that at the end of my region, after everything else is done. The contest prizes will be done, but the official version you'll have to wait to see.
Thanks for the critique!

Yeah... caught up in a backlog of other stuff right now. Besides, I never claimed I'd upload it soon... I'd originally planned to upload it once I'd finished with the rest of Lovecraft versions fakemon. For now I'm sticking with that plan.

I saw this Pokemon EVERYWHERE because of that contest and I think is probably the most original Fakemon evah!

Kahan looks pretty cool with those long, arching arms. Like it's about to grab something and snatch it away.

Thanks! More like it's about to crush something, but close enough.

Shading. It is a bit dark there, so I understand the confusion.

For me, the purple things seemed like what it used to move it's arms. Sort of like muscles. Interesting to see a different pic of Kahan but I think I prefer the first one

Flairina In reply to Blue-energy [2011-03-28 19:41:37 +0000 UTC]
I kinda like that, hence why I didn't show the ends this time either. And I suppose that's fair. Any particular reason why?

Blue-energy In reply to Flairina [2011-03-28 22:13:41 +0000 UTC]
The other pic was better drawn. With this one the body looks too thin and the eyes don't look as intense

DX Ahh I thought they were connected to the ear/arm things too! Oops!
Also after reading =Sadistic-Blaziken 's critique I'm starting to like the unshaded tail

Flairina In reply to Norcinu [2011-03-28 19:40:46 +0000 UTC]
No prob, I kinda like that idea. Glad to know the tail isn't a big issue too.

Simple, original, and creative.
Kahan really could be part of the Pokemon series!

Thanks! Simplicity was what I was aiming for (or at least for this PART of Kahan).
