Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.
Both of these were drawn be me with pencil and paper, and then scanned. They are copies of Pokemon TCG illustrations blown up 5x. I always like to try new methods with shading, using my fingers. :naughty:
Call me critical, but Charizard's head makes it look too 2-D, which, judging by the left hand, was not your intent. Something about the shading says you didn't work with a gradient, but rather designated a block of it to be "shade" and the rest to be "light." The rest is awesome though.
Kingler's great. Is it crushing ice? Like Regice just hit it with a Flamethrower only to have it's arm ripped off.
these are great, although i'll have to agree with cooper on the charizard's shading. its still awesome though :) i look forward to seeing more art from you!
