Description
Last year I managed to start and complete an image in under 2 days. Then I tried to do a similar feat right after that. lol.. and what you see here has taken months!At least one month just developing lineart... endless tweaking.
Another two months for the painting. Tedious, tedious stuff. I got RSI in my hand many times because all my strokes were so repetitive, or took quite a bit of pressure, or both! There are many thousands of strokes making up most of the image.
I need to look after my hands. ;-;
I've done a massive allnighter working on this.. I averaged about 15 hours of work per week normally.
Jasmine <33
still my favourite character in the pokemon universe.
I did some googling and decided to get Jasmine flowers as my references. I hope they are pretty enough! She's scratching under the chin of her dear Ampharos.. which is not to scale I might add. Sorry. xD
The dress is an original design, but it has probably been created before. it's not that complex in structure.
Edit: Fixed most layer edge aliasing.
Full res image avaliable here: [link]
Created exclusively in Paint Tool Sai.
Jasmine is loev.

I can see the pay off for all that time. This is wonderful to look at. Everything seems to flow well.

This is so beautiful <3 I'm not much for the pokemon-esque eyes (they don't seem to fit), but the rest is simply amazing.

I agree so some extent. I like to make fanart close to original styles though... I would be afraid to try something different with Jasmine. I'm glad you still like it! I appreciate it (=

I really hoped I would get feedback like this, it was my goal to create something which reflected my admiration by the effort I poured into it.

This is amazing. Really pretty picture, I love all the little details here, like the jasmine flowers and the tree. And you got Amphy the Ampharos too, awesome.
I like the shading on this, and I for some reason really like how you did the dress. I also love how you did the tree and flowers, they look pretty realistic.
In short, an awesome PokΓ©mon fanart.

I think you have misread xD "and what you see here has taken months!"
I was talking about a seperate picture, done last year, which took 2 days.

Wow, I love how you really kept true to the Pokemon art style but refined it into your own and improving upon it.
Everything about this picture is really cute. The pose, ampharos, Jasmine's panties (I like frills), flowers are so well done, and her hair... though, I do wonder how she wears her hair like that.

HaydenM In reply to Rina-ran [2010-02-13 10:28:52 +0000 UTC]
The facial style is really distinctive. I didn't want to change it much =]
I adore frilly things too! *u* I think I put a little bit of everything I like in here.
Not much hair accessories make sense in anime/manga designs. haha.

She is one character who I must ensure is portrayed with great care.

The shading looks incredibly realistic, and the highlights are amazing! Also, I like the way you drew her hands . Those months were really worth it

HaydenM In reply to TeamAquaDan [2010-01-23 17:46:01 +0000 UTC]
It is quite simple. When I do fanart I like to match the original designs. Pokemon characters aren't much in the way of dramatic models... But I accept I was limiting myself there. xP

This is a great work dear.
Proportions, colors, shading textures and perspective are just perfect.
Love how you played with light and shade on her dress. Looks like you could touch it for real.
