Konoko's Art Pad

[Spokavriel]

Kirby looks so good I have to ask if you were tracing him from some promotional art for the cartoon

[KonokoHasano]

Nope, was just looking at an image of him for reference.

[CRBWildcat]

Come to think of it, Kirby's Adventure does show that it's easy to draw him...

[KonokoHasano]

Yeah. The only difficult thing can be drawing circles. Simple, yet can be hard to draw something perfectly round.

Anyway, 30-Day Hero Challenge Day 7: Jenny Wakeman/XJ-9

[CRBWildcat]

Curtis was having issues with drawing circles for a while. He finally decided "no more of this" and bought himself a circle template.

Anyway, I think this one and Kirby are my favorite ones so far.

[KonokoHasano]

Thanks. Also, I guess if Sai had a circle template, I'd use that, but it doesn't, and I'm too lazy to bother with other art programs.

Anyway, I decided to take a short break on the 30-day challenge. Here's something different. A friend on IRC proposed a challenge of drawing my 'Pokesona', and so I did. Why isn't it a Gardevoir, you ask? Well... because I like the idea of Kirlia more. It's also a study attempt in differentiation between species, such as how one group of Pokemon could have some kind of differences in compared to another group of the same Pokemon in far away places. Not to mention individual members having some very slight variations.

Like the idea that there could be Kirlias with small mutations of sort that cause some extra skin flaps with their skirts to make it look like they have petticoats. As such, this is what I came up with. A nerdy, glasses wearing Kirlia who helps work at a cafe along with his trainer.

[Spokavriel]

And the expression with the head patting? I don't think its because light is getting blocked.

[KonokoHasano]

Embarrassment over entire face being shown and the idea of looking a bit weird like that. Or something like that.

[Spokavriel]

So having her forehead shown is almost as mortifying as a guy going around a flipping skirts to display undergarments to the world?

[KonokoHasano]

Hrm... bluh, I dunno. I just had a vague idea and drew that. XD

[Spokavriel]

Its still cute.

[CRBWildcat]

Nice. Gives a whole new meaning to keeping the business afloat, huh?

[KonokoHasano]

It does, yeah. XD

Hey, something new added. Took a break from the Hero Challenge, but here we go, Ambush Bug. I have other art I'm slowly working on, but I've been really tired this week for some reason x.x

[CRBWildcat]

*pokes his head out of Callista's left ear* Hey, I ain't complaining. I've always liked ol' Buggy. >^_^<

*flinches* Get out of there, moron! I can't hear anything!

*Ambush rolls his eyes, but disappears back inside in compliance.*

[KonokoHasano]

I finally got around to working on the Pokedex Project I've been floundering about with since last year or longer. Trying to do a drawing of each and every Pokemon. I'm... very slow at it. > 3>
