Description
I love Dragons so drawing Flygon was easy; I referenced house fly characteristics to help add that insect feel to Flygon without going overboard.A few hours, Photoshop + Tablet. Now time to do Haxorus and Garchomp!

I love flygon!!!! You did a great job! Do you use guidelines? The circles.

Guidelines? I drew this completely free-hand, if that's what you mean

You did? That's amazing! I don't use them either. You should keep doing this, I love it. ^_^

Now I've seen a few realistic versions of flygon, either more in the lizard direction or more insectoid but never have they hit the middle between the two so perfectly as your picture. Especially the wings look really awesome with the half-translucent greeen windows. The long antennae are great, too. What a wonderful picture!

Thanks! I find overly insect or reptilian versions a bit off the mark, so I tried to incorporate characteristics of both.

well, you certainly succeeded in that

My absolute favorite aspect of its design, as silly as it may seem, are the tiny hairs that run down its spine. Now -that- shows some wonderful creativity. Faved it, of course! Keep up the amazing work!!!

No I'm so glad you picked up on the setae! They're super important for touch and wind vibrations. I realised Flygon would certainly need them to fly amongst wing currents in the dessert and capture potential prey. Thanks for the kind words

As both a student of biology and evolution and also a massive pokemon fan, I have to say this is the best realistic flagon I have seen yet, and one of the best realistic pokemon to boot! You managed to keep it reptilian but also give it some insectoid characteristics, and the wings make perfect sense. They look like insect wings, but are clearly membranous, like a dragon's should be. Bravo to you!

wow!! finaly!!! someone make him look like a dragon!!!
(cause it is a bug type everyone is saying its a giant bug 0-0)

Flygon isn't actually a Bug Type, it's Dragon/Ground

yeah i was like searching for flygon after i post this comment and i saw Dragon/Ground so then i was like .. Omg what did i say...

I love all the detail in the wings! this is what I imagine Flygon would look like in real life, and he looks super cool!

Yours are the best realistic PokΓ©mon I've ever seen. Of coarse, your competition is a tortoise photoshoped blue with cannons cut and pasted to its shell. But still super good! Β

As with most other commenters on this piece, I too see artists going either all draconic or all insectiod with their designs. This piece however is a good balance between the two, and I must say I love it to pieces. Realistic headcanon accepted!!!

I love this flygon. You made one of the best realistic ones I have ever seen! I would love to see a shiny version of this someday! Thank you for showing off this wonderful picture. <33

Quite a perfect combination of insect and reptile, I really like those external eye covers and the wings are especially great, perfect blend of classic insect wings and actual arms.
π: 0 β©: 0
Quite the looker...but some thing about that eye doesn't look like it fits but it might just be my phone.
π: 0 β©: 1
The actual eye is hidden behind the large pink sheath that Flygon has to protect it from dust (like a pair of goggles), so it is transparent, if that's what you mean

I know I didn't think you had included it...so maybe it was just my phone if you did include it....

It's wings should be a little bit bigger and wider in order to realistically support it's massive weight (at least as big as it's body, like the official Pokemon sketch), but other than that, it looks amazing!

The wings are actually more or less the same size as the one shown in the original anime drawing (which, under scrutiny, may not provide flight on their own. Wing beats per second, and other biological structures such as hollow bones also come into play).Β

Considering how this pokemon is in ONLY the bug egg group, this is probably the best realistic representation of it.
π: 0 β©: 1
I don't base my interpretations on type or egg groups, but merely on its design. I've seen much more insectoid interpretations of Flygon that suggest it is fully an invertebrate and thus fits in the bug egg group better than mine. I depict it as half bug, half reptile, so-to-speak. Realistically, it would have it's own taxonomic class and thus an egg group of its own

even if flygon would look like this it would still be my favorite dragon pokemon no matter what ;D

Pictures like this makes me ask why isn't Flygon a Dragon/Bug type?

cant wait till you do evee's XD i would love to see a vaporeon from you

I probably won't be doing Eeveelutionsto be honest.

I LOVE the wings, and the eyes, and the tail, and eeeeeeeeeeeeverything !!!!

Great work! This is one of my favorite realistic Flygon designs. Most people make it too reptilian, but you managed to keep it looking insectoid. Love it.
