Description After a whole morning's work, here they are. Finally, the very last set of the pokedex project! The legendary duo here to close up the day. I wouldn't call them a crowning jewel because I loved most of the new designs and feel they all are a jewel of some sort. Anyway, I hope you like them, I know I do.
Some thoughts that helped with design:
- Mew: Prototype of all pokemon, holder of the DNA of every species, ancestor to all and ages old wanderer of worlds. Both symbolically and somewhat physically, embryo of all pokemon life

- Mewtwo: Clone of Mew, ultimate violation on nature, unnatural and imperfect creation of man, holder of a grudge against its makers and on life itself.

I will post a journal later today with the details of what will come next. In the meantime, I want to thank you all for the huge support! thank you guys!

Indeed; and probably I need a very long space between; depositing the bombs from the orbit of the planet is definitely the safest solution

Thanks a lot for the comment! As of now I donΒ΄t have enough time to do the whole Johto pokedex, however I have done a few as commissions, but the commissioners asked me not to upload them here since they were tatoo designs. Anyway, if you want one in particular you can ask for a commission! Or you can wait patiently hehe, who knows what the future might bring

You've got a real flair for gross detailing Seriously though, these are awesome. They've got a real Keith Thompson look to them (if you don't know his stuff check out kieththompsonart.com)

Wow. The description made for Mewtwo is, at the very least, complete. "Ultimate violation on nature, unnatural and imperfect creation of man, holder of a grudge against it's makers and on life itself."
It would, seriously, be a nice entry to new generation Pokedex. Be sure to keep the rights for it!
Outstanding work of art. Keep it up! xD

your take on mew is simple delicious, and no, and don't want to eat that... being lol
But srl, it looks exactly like the description of it, the embrio of all poke life, the generic of everything, simply stunning.
Mewtwo looks like an amazing biotec killing machine, the details of the torax out of the body, compelte exposed, the tubes conecting everything, just takes an amazing pokemon and makes it better

It makes perfect sense, pokemon only look cute because they are for "children", if pokemon was a little grown up i would bet mew would look like that and not all flufy and cudly. he's the ancestor for god sake x'D

I dont know that my comment were here, so i will write it again. Mewtwo is really epic, and just great. But Mew in my opinion should have no mouth and in these case it will be more original, now its like other pkmn u draw . Still great work.

Sorry if double coment, net problems ;/

Yeah, probably, but the original mew does have a mouth. I didn't want to make it a protoss with cat ears either haha.

I really like mewtwo, but mew in my opinion! Have no mouth, without a mouth he should look a bit more original, cuz it is just like other pkmn.

Still good work, really!

Mewtwo looks super badass! I'm very impressed there. As for Mew, I'm not even sure what I was expecting but this is awesome! At first I was kinda like "Holy shit, its kinda scary!" but then I looked at it again and its kinda cute still. Almost reminds me of the cheshire cat from American McGees Alice... only mew form lol

I actually expected mew to be like this, being the embryo and all, but when i first laid eyes on him I was "WOW". He gave me the creeps XD

Mewtwo just couldn't look better. Not only is he pure awesomenes, he also fits perfectly in the idea of the project. Actually, they both do

jmorfeus [2012-05-01 12:29:15 +0000 UTC]

Just wow. I don't really get the comments saying that Mew could be better. Sure it gave me the creeps when I saw it first time, but that's a good thing It's appearance is perfectly fitting with it's nature it should have! (which you wrote bellow the picture) I think this is 100% perfect reimagination of Mew and I couldn't hope to see better (I like creepy creatures and I don't think everything must be cute to be good looking).
In fact, maybe Mew is my favourite one of all in Pokedex project (but that is hard to say, I like all of them).

ps. Once last note, the "embryo of all pokemon life" touch in the picture is simply amazing.

thebelovedkid [2012-05-01 02:00:26 +0000 UTC]

Heyyyyy! wow! mewtwo is really great! though...i have to admit that i was hoping you would draw mew a little bit less creepy...simply because his personality in the anime and movies is really joyful and it really is a nice pokemon. Actually, i would say ''remove the pointy teeth and add a little fat (not too much) to his bones and this becomes perfect! (hey it's old afterall...like old ppl...they can lose their teeth )

Well thank you for your hard work, those are really nice drawings i love them all in the end! maybe in a near future my dream of seeing the second gen will become true (i know your answer is no for the moment)

you really really rock! i will keep following you in some hopes that i get to see something new one day n_n ( i hope i can buy a commission from you heheheheheh)

Thanks a lot for the comment I am glad I got so much support from awesome people like yourself
Regarding Mew, I've said it a lot of times and don't want to sound repetitive, but basically I will not change it, and that's for one basic reason: I am actually satisfied with it. That is how I imagined Mew according to its concept information. I am sorry but changing it would be something to please others and that was never the point of the project
Thanks a lot anyway and thank you for the support throughout these days! I hope to keep all of you close in the times to come

xPokemon-maniacx [2012-04-30 22:48:05 +0000 UTC]

I really like all of your work! You are so talente and creative, but as some others before me, i must say that i know based on your other work that you can make Mew much better. I know that realisticly he would be as far from "cute" as possible, but i really think that you can redraw him and still get a good grip at the the DNA based creepy creature and still make him al little less painful to watch. Total rating on this project of yours; 10/10! I really loved it!

PS: Really hoping to see more from you for example to redraw the next part of the pokedex (152-251) as my favorite game is Pokemon crystal and have such a strong bond with this pokemon

Ah, thanks a lot for the comment and the review. And well, yeah, many others are dissatisfied with mew, but it is actually one of my favourite redrawn pokemon and it is because my vision of it is that. So, I can not change it because what drove the project all the way was my bond with each pokemon, and I will not change that lest I myself am dissatisfied with the oucome Anyway, thanks for the comment and we'll see about more pokemon, at the time the answer is naaaaahhh because I'm really really tired haha

IΒ΄ll just make a comment on the full pokedex reinvention, so, there goes
Your work is plain awesome... iΒ΄m just amazed by the creativity you would deliver in an already made concept... To recreate something that has already taken root on the culture of people, and do it so well, you, my friend, deserve a big, fat, Thank You.
On the matter of you being a med student... IΒ΄ll just have to take my hat off (too bad I do not have a picture without the hat, and no longer have the hair to make a new...). My brother have recently graduated in med school, and I know the absurd lack of time you face...

Let me just thank you again and end this long comment.
My most sincere congratulations... and Thank You, once again.
