Requests? Head to this thread.

Hi there! This is the place where I'll stash my art. The very first post will end up as the index for all the art, too I mostly do my drawing on my 3DS using Colors! 3D, as I can't draw using a mouse.

I usually trace my drawings over something else (sometimes with concessions taken), but you can always tell me to draw something For that, request in a VM/PM! Or in the chat.

Turtwig would like a hug!

A Turtwig and a Sprout

This is my first attempt at a mostly-untraced drawing. Pretty much, I only used the DW artwork as the reference, preferring not to overlay anything.

Spoiler Alert:    


($7 well spent, huh?)

Cute, huh? IKR? Hehe...

I think I'm getting the hang of drawing stuff on a 3DS. I think the app is pretty easy to use for me

Now I'm getting bored. Maybe I should start a separate shop for request... or I wonder whether people should just try requesting stuff here (if it's allowed?).

If you are wishing to take requests then I'd suggest posting a seperate drawing request in the Shops & Requests board. You of course, can link them together and post the finished products here in your art display thread as well!

Btw good job so far, Twiggy! It's always good to see others sharing their artwork here with everyone! :3

OK, LugiaDialga's Deino (640x480/1280x960) has just been finished. Now, I think I'll go start drawing some other things in the meantime.

Note also the slight differences in shading on Pichu. It's based on a frame in a Pokémon movie.

This one's a big uh-oh! And it's a big Turtwig! The only problem? I can't colour SVG things properly.

(If anyone wants the original SVG file, feel free to PM me.)

The right hind leg has a bit of a filling problem right now. I'll get around to it.

(No, before you even think about it, I'm not Cat333Pokémon's alt.)

Ohhh so you're working with vectors now too~? May I ask what program you used to create it? The Turtwig lineart looks great, keep it up, Twiggy! :3

I think Cat wasn't kidding when he said that lots of Pokémon look strange in profile. Turns out a lot of other things do, too. (It's that bored Oekaki drawing-turned-personal-character)

I think I'm getting the hang of drawing with only a mouse on the Pokékaki. Colouring, outlining, shading... well, I've got them down mostly here. Too bad that only a stylus could give me the precision that I need for drawing the way it's meant to be drawn. Guess a Windows tablet/tablet-laptop hybrid/something with a touch screen is in order.

Wow, this was drawn in the Pokekaki with only a mouse?! Good lord.... that puts my failed attempts to shame. x3 I fail hard with the mouse, unless it's Adobe Illustrator and I have the Paths Tool but even then sometimes. Let's just say I'm glad to have a tablet. But anyways, this is amazing, Twiggy! You're coloring there reminds me of SandyClaws' coloring style in his Pokekaki works, which is a really neat thing! Keep it up Twiggy, and also hope to see more of this lil' guy!

Don't tell anyone that I cheated a lot with the Beizer tools
If I do get a tablet computer, it'd be way easier to just draw. Haha! And I promise to show more of him.

Back to normalcy... No outlines can be a bit funny. This one's for Seiji's Riolu love!

Shocking Turtwig is shocking. Seems like Paint.NET's selection tools do not anti-alias.

Strangely, better than I expected.

Drawing with a real pen, on real paper, is going to be a much more enjoyable experience, especially when your scanner is also very capable and produces clean output. Note that this is a sketch - I perhaps will come back to it later, perhaps tracing it and colouring it.

While we're at it, I bothered to create a fursona (a sketch of a head, mind you)

It's a long time since I've drawn something that's really worth around here, but I finally did it, again. Here's a big, yellow, possibly cuddly Haxorus. (Don't mind the axes!)

Oh, and by the way, you can click the image. It links to the high-resolution version.

First, I started off with a piece of A4 paper, and sketched the Haxorus on it. That part took about two days before I got it just right.

After scanning in the sketch, I traced over the sketch with lines within paint.net. This part isn't necessarily easy, seeing as some line clean-up is also needed after drawing over the lines, too, even though layering helps a lot. This part probably took about an hour to finish.

The colour fill is done really quickly. I think it took me, like, 15 minutes, to fill it up and fix any fringing.

I then started shading the darker areas of Haxorus. It's fun when you have advanced layer blending options that you can make use of. After shading the darker areas, I started doing light shading on another layer.

The signature is actually a separate layer, too, and it's scanned after the fact. Some parts, I just can't let go of the pen(cil).

I really should get something with pressure-sensitive pen input at this point! It might make the transition from sketch to line-art much more smoother.

It feels funny looking at the first drawing and what I have right now. It's like...no way they came from the same person!

On the other hand, might as well as redo one of my fursonas, so to speak. "Why not make it a naga instead?"

A retry at the same thing.

This is kind of awkward, but I haven't sorted out exactly how I want to hotlink images from my own personal site after rearranging things big time.

Some sketches from the past few weeks. Last two images are HUGE, so be warned. (Might wanna use an image viewer for them.)

Also, a bonus: a tilemap of a possible JRPG world map-in-making. Yeah, I'm doing some game dev on the side now.

https://onedrive.live.com/redir?resi...nt=photo%2cpng

If the image links don't work, tell me, and I'll change them into standard URLs. Thinking of not using my personal site anymore for art until further notice.

What does it look like, and what does it remind you of? Post comments in this thread.    
You are now one of us :^) Though I sort of have a thing against RPG Maker, but whatever. Nice tileset, btw, either it's zoomed really far out or you're one of the few people who ins't using the default one.

I actually used Tiled to make these maps, and then Tiled2Unity to import them into a Unity 5.3.x project I'm using as the basis for the game. They work incredibly well.

The tileset? Custom-made. Yep, I can pixel art.

Ah, Tiled. Haven't seen that thing since it was rather early in development, I'll have to investigate it more again.

Please do! It's getting pretty robust from my usage, and should be plenty usable for most 2D projects.

At this rate, I think the thread is going to need a new title! This is an attempt at a "world map" music for my game, of which you might have seen a few posts before. I think this is actually the first time I'm happy with how things have turned out music-wise.

Speaking of inspiration, I actually decided to put the first world map theme of Final Fantasy V on repeat and tried to listen to how it exactly works. I was having a lot of trouble trying to make a coherent song that won't cause listener fatigue, and I thought that I probably needed some real examples out there to see if I can learn a thing or two.

I think I learned a whole lot more things... It finally clicked on me. I think the trick is probably on how to not overwhelm the listener with the notes... I decided to see if I could space the notes apart similar to that song, while creating my own melody and harmony, and...

Well, listen to it to see for yourself! The best part is probably they sound nothing alike!

Also, Beepbox is really useful for quickie music creation in NES-style. I'd say it's like an easier to use version of Famitracker, but it is also less powerful and more limiting.
