Description
Had myself a little "art jam" of sorts on my last night visiting WA, drew this as a result. Man, I hadn't drawn Venusaur since I was like... 10 or something? Was never a favorite of mine until recently; Veusaur has really grown on me in the last year or so.This took FOR-EV-ER to color. I forgot how much fun coloring traditionally could be, but I also forgot how much work it can be!
Edit: for those wondering, I inked this with colored Staedtler triplus fineliners, and colored it with Crayola colored pencils and markers :3

The key to coloring with Crayola is to lightly build up your shades for texture, then press hard in areas you want to blend. One of these days, I'll make a tutorial :3
And oh god, no... the scanner I used was on its last legs; sounds like a meat grinder when I use it xD I had to use a lot of adjusting in CS4 to get it to look anything like the original, which still looks better.
Anyway, thank you for the complements!

I've always found it difficult to think how Venusaur would walk, realistically, but you've made it work! Well done

This is a kick ass drawing. Nice job, especially with the coloring, detail, and pose. The shading is also pretty smooth and nice.

Usually I dun like Venasaur as much as it's pre evolved forms cos it looks so grotesque. But I think you balanced this brilliant with your style!! Love it! <3

I didn't color tradionally since... 2 years ago..? I should retry someday.
Btw, this is really awesome, made with colored pencil?

This Venusaur seems to be in better shape than most I've seen. And, of course, better-drawn. Has he been chasing something delicious? Is that why he's so slim (and drooling?)

I love the colored lines, and how he actually looks bumpy and organic (and both plantlike and animal-like at the same time). C:
