I happen to be an avid watcher of RTGame, and there was this bit from the ending of a recent video that made me feel like drawing it out. I dunno, something about the scene of Dan desperately shouting out to Bluebear and following her to the airport really tickled my artistic side. Timelapse below, like usual. They used to call me the Timelapse King back in college—

(I'm a bit miffed at myself that it took me two weeks to make this piece, but hey, I feel satisfied with the result. Better done alright than never done at all.)

I got to go and watch Markiplier's Iron Lung film yesterday, with my siblings and some of their friends. I'm not much of a horror film person, or horror media-in-general person (except at a distance), but I'd say it was worth the watch. Was as thrilling as I expected it to be, and while rough in places it managed to tell what I felt was a full story. I decided to churn out a quick piece that night to capture the feelings I got from watching the film, and... I'm going to put it under the cut alongside the timelapse this time. It is a tad more intense than what I usually post.

Tried to capture the most pertinent imagery of the film, or at least the imagery that stuck out to me the most. Feel like I did a good job.

Best $6,066.88 ever spent.

I decided to participate in the Fakemon Tournament 500 that @n0rtist is hosting! A bit of a late entry, but given a friend of mine and I have a little Fakemon region concept going on for the past few years, it'd be a shame to not try and participate! So here's Blizzwine, an ice/ground type! To quote the Junior Professor tasked with cataloguing this region's new creatures:

This Pokemon is very territorial. When another Pokemon enters its territory, all the snow in its territory becomes a trap that buries any Pokemon.

I haven't quite nailed down the moveset it'll have as of me writing this post (3AM, help—), but I should be able to nail something down between then and the deadline! In the meantime, have this timelapse:

That little sketch that popped up during the timelapse is made by the friend I'm doing this project with—she also provided everything for the 'mon short of the actual drawing, so kudos to her! I just had to modify the stats she gave a bit so it was eligible for the tournament... And then modify them a bit more after remembering the tourney rules, so add another 15 to attack, remove 5 from defense, and remove 10 from special attack. Whoops!

Well, the 3DS (and Wii U) online shut down today, and with it, the online features of two generations' worth of Pokemon games. Farewell Wonder Trade, GTS, PSS, Festival Plaza, trade evolutions, all of it. You will be mostly missed. Individual pictures are below the cut:

...Though, it seems there's one Pokemon who's celebrating more than anything...

Recently, one of my friends got herself a VR headset, and she's been learning the ropes with the help of another friend who has one of his own. Yesterday they did some VRChat, set up such that they could share the action with me and the rest of our Discord group, and I couldn't help but sketch out the above little comic after a bit of shenaniganery that happened.

Happy Pokemon Day, everyone! I was planning on sharing a massive art piece to celebrate my many Pokemon journeys over the years... But when I say massive, I mean massive, and there was no way I'd have been able to complete it in time. So instead, I dusted off a piece I halted in late November to celebrate! Here's two of the Pokemon on my Legends Z-A team: Kori the Meganium and Argo the Aurorus! Kori comes from the Grass Continent, venturing out into the human regions to reunite with the one she partnered with way back when (A.K.A. Trainer!me), and Argo, of course, is freshly revived in the modern day. He was utterly flustered by her when they first met, and gradually their love bloomed like the petals 'round her neck... ...'Least, that's how I'd like to picture it. As usual, click below to view the timelapse for the piece!

(And yeah, the background is one I took in-game. I'd be crazy to try doing art of Lumiose with my current expertise.)

Watch out, a spider's about! I checked to see if this was uploaded here already, and it seems like it wasn't, to my surprise—it's a redesign of the Fikou Spider from Bionicle, one of those small 2001 rahi that used spare parts to make a little critter. I tried to keep the most interesting parts of the original (Mainly the claw-born shape of the legs and the little marks on the back inspired by the Pakari's vents), but for the most part it ended up being something all my own. Dunno why I picked the colors, though I think they look nice.
