Description I did a sketch today of one of my crew members, ...and I kinda liked it enough to go on with it! It was the smile, defiantly that smile. XP I was playing with the background a LOT in photoshop, I was going to do a background like... illustration style like the last big one I did but going off in distraction and experimentation led me to this.

Hope the color in the background complements the foreground. His wings ARE there, if you look he's flapping them at a considerable speed. He does resemble a dragon fly so that it will do -- sadly I couldn't get a nice white stroke around a blurred object.

And the crossed arms were a challenge on their own, let me know how I did on em'. Original image size, that would only be about 12% o.O; I can print juicy sizes. XD FYI.. this guys going on my wall. (will post a pic link when it's up)

Anyways, thanks for reading XP...

Interesting character!

I don't know why I haven't show any liking to the Pokemon Flygon on the internet, until now.

When I see his wings moving like that, it makes me think of the sound a helicopter makes.

Errrrr it's a tie between Raichu, Sableye, and Flygon. I lurv them all too much I already have 2 Flygon on my Pearl card. I'm running out of room for a third one though T^T I can't draw Flygon too well either...

... No matter how much I want to...

I have one Flygon from my pearl, now on plat. I can't catch Flygon on Plat I discovered o.o;

I find the hard parts are the eyes, and how his legs size up to his body w/o looking like he has an obesity issue. XD

I get just about all my Pokemon by breeding the ones I migrate from my other games X3 Or just keeping the migrated ones.

The hardest part for me was always the arms. I can't do those tiny arms just right.

BrunetteMenolly [2009-08-16 22:53:10 +0000 UTC]

The background does compliment the character

Um, his right foot looks like it's . . . broken. O_o Are they supposed to bend that way?

I would suggest changing the wings to include some white blurs. Or put more green blur on them.

I think the crossed arms look good. I personally would have arranged them the other way, with the left one on top. but that's just personal preference.

Great work!

^_____^ you continue to impress with your digital art I swear. I mean I like how you totally changed the color tone for the background as compared to the foreground. It really makes it jump out more.
The typography is A+ material and it just really seems alive .

Bwee.. lol. I feel good inside D: Thanks on the color complement and the type complement! x3

Yeah, the background needed to be different, but at the same time keep with the color scheme of Flygon but only a tiny bit

Yay Pilott! Gorgeous smile Oh, he has a bent Antenna? I never noticed that before, that's dead sweet That's a nice background choice, it makes him look exciting I tried to draw crossed arms lately and I failed miserably. They're always a hit n' miss for me but you did a convincing job

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

superTULER In reply to OhStuffit [2009-08-16 02:41:28 +0000 UTC]

He's not really the best Flygon when it comes to flight to say the least ... so a bent antenna would be the reason. Good to hear the background doesn't clash but adds to.

+1 for crossed arms! Yeah hit and miss for me too. x__X; sometimes you'll see me get around it in some pics. XD;

...maybe by positioning the character so he wont have too xP

OhStuffit In reply to superTULER [2009-08-16 11:48:23 +0000 UTC]

I think if he weren't shiny, you wouldn't have gotten away with the background, but it does add to the sorta... whole innocence and warmth of the character I guess. As well as colourwise.

Aww, the more I look at him, the more I wanna draw fanart that'll be alright, yes? If you see him in my gallery?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

superTULER In reply to OhStuffit [2009-08-16 21:32:00 +0000 UTC]

I would of did a redish background to go with his red eye piece if he wasn't shiny, just to keep a similar color scheme.

Oh man, by all means please do! o_O; That would be so cool x3. (you don't have to but by all means)

Oh wow! And here I was expecting to get the cold hard truth from non-other (I quite like the honesty, to be honest. XP)

Oh yes, definitely. I can even show you through manycam or maybe host a ustream when making my next pin-up of one of the crew members, unless you have a particular pal that likes some camera time

Lol

Thanks on the eye! :3 I'll show you how I did that too!

CoaCoaIcing [2009-08-15 01:46:52 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, his arms look much better in this picture! Mostly because I looked at his sprite and saw that they were pretty small in the first place...
Rawr, what's with the green stuff? Dragon breath?

superTULER In reply to CoaCoaIcing [2009-08-15 02:25:52 +0000 UTC]

They be his wings, flapping really fast. Second paragraph in the comment x3.

Though I'm happy to establish his arms correctly this time. Amazing what critique does ;3

Thanks again on that!
