I love colors, pokemon, animated media, graphic novels, and video games... 🍒 Gave up drawing for a long time, now relearning it, and embarrassed about all my art ^^

trying to post mistakes along w happy accidents... there are bigger things to worry about.

rotom my old friend...

#pokemon #art #pokemonart #rotom

A hyper-active Rotom creates a whirlwind of colorful electric zaps and waves around itself. The blue electricity from its body turns into sea of deep purple lavender, juicy raspberry magenta, and calmer lemonade yellow.

Flabébé (and eternal floette) became my best friends during shiny hunting in Pokemon Legends ZA so i painted some

In a macro, dream-like, soft and warm feeling view... an extra small shiny Flabébé nestled inside a large orange flower. A warm glow is cast over them, while various other pokemon of the sames species loiter around the same scene. All the petals flying by near the viewer and the buildings in the distant background are extremely blurry, keeping the focus on the sleeping little friend. The scene is in Lumiose City in Pokemon Legends Z-A.

when you practice a certain pose for a drawing, but then you practice another pose to get better at that pose. but then you practice another body part to understand that second pose better, but then--

the artist can't help but collapse into the yamcha death pose. truly, truly tragic. 😔

Sorry for no art recently. There's a lot of characters I have to draw 😭🙏 I'm burning myself out so I may just need a break to draw my own stuff before I get to the rest.

Here's some more I completed

friends and family nEED TO KNOW!!!!

A small person with long hair and a cutsey smile looks up. Their hand takes up 1/3rd of the screen while they stand far off in the distance, holding it up at you, pointing. With the loudest, genuine concern and hope, they ask..... "Have YOU been blessed by a capybara today?!"

Misdreavus pulled a trick on Spiritomb. Surprise treat!
my kindred spooky pokemon type 💞 Happy Halloween!

#pokemon #art #misdreavus #spiritomb

Misdreavus, a floating ghost-type pokemon, has caught Spiritomb (another, but grounded, ghost-type pokemon) by surprise. She kisses the side of the strange energy or plasma that makes up, what looks to be, their face. Misdreavus' red jewels that circle her neck dig into them a little, and radiate a bright warm glow. Spiritomb seems to have gone on the fritz--they are surrounded by faint spirals of energy and some thunderbolts. Their eyes look bashful as they blush while being given their treat.

girl failure goddess of what you need; not what you want. the only wishes she can grant are ones where you are being honest with yourself.
#artsky #ocart #oc #art #doodle #wip

A woman has a smile on her face in the middle of the canvas; she looks off-screen with a little pep. Her hair is up in a tousled bun with bits that are egregiously loose and waving in the wind at the side of her face. Her hair is colored with cool hues of green, teal, and purple. A crown of stars orbits around the crown of her own head. Apparently, she's low on CASH and real depressed about it. But, on the upside she has these cute wings that spawn out from the ribbon on the back of her dress--it sits on the small of her back and fans out as long as her height on either side. A different hairstyle option is sketched in the background, where she lets her hair loose in a ponytail instead of a bun. It looks like it would whip in strong winds but feel like a feather.

they did me so fucking dirty, right at the start of pokemon legends za
#pokemonart #morelikeadoodle #adfhsdfjh hilarious.

In Pokemon Legends Z-A, the NPC took my picture for my ID card or something. And somehow, they managed to take it while I was in the middle of blinking. They really did that to me. (I've stayed away from spoilers for so long..... for this....). Hilarious.

kasane teto cookies i saw in a dream

Three cookies are laid across what looks like a deserted, blue backing. A childish rendition of Kasane Teto is on a cookie. Along with it are two others; a baguette on wheels made to look like a skateboard and a pear with Teto's face in the middle with sly, goofy eyes looking away from you. It's partially obscured and out of focus. Just out of reach.

tried to clothe her but wound up with this!! she's made of sugary, syrupy slime now and uses dustings of sugar (or citric acid) to give herself 'clothes'. And she uses fruits to accessorize... <3 i love her // spicy version on my nsfw acct

#art #artsky #oc #ocart #slimegirl #slime #cutie #patootie

A bright green slime girl is featured leaning back with one leg's knee held up at chest height. She looks upward with what seem to be strawberry slices for eyes. She has two rather short, rounded antennae. Next to one of those sits a whipped cream topping with a cherry on top, and a star fruit slice accompaniment. Her name is Melo, pronounced "Mellow." Her body is dusted with sugar to give the illusion of a shirt, shorts, and thigh-high stockings of sorts. Her neck features a necklace made of blueberries--but it only exists because the blueberries were shoved into her neck and stuck there. She can change out the fruits she uses as eyes, and what accessories she has on her head and neck.

lonely robot girl. having trouble deciding on her color palette though :9 ....
#art #robot #oc #ocart #artsky

She's made of dead people! A skin-tight suit like alloy or metal outer shell holds her jelly- or plasma-like soft innards that make up the form of her body. What looks like hair is actually ribbon-like constructions of light or plasma, I (the artist) haven't decided yet. She's rather short and a bit... stacked! Her design carries a lot of wavy, fluid lines. Her head is adorned with two small, short triangular pyramids that could be mistaken for the tiniest of cat ears--they use magic (magnets) to hold other floating parts near their vicinity. Good for having fake bunny ears! The bottoms of her feet simply taper down to a slanted point; like a bamboo shoot's cut top but upside down. They end with a small exposed circle of the white substance around the back of the calf, and a ring of white at the soles and edge of her "foot." Her personality is described as being pretty quiet until she's comfortable enough to talk. Pretty human-like after being alive so long. It gets lonely when you only know of the deceased. She carries a bunch of other human-like qualities, too. Did they make her like that? Or did those qualities just ...? Anyways, again; she's made of dead people. Yippee!

Misdreavus and Flutter Mane face each other while flying in a soft pink sky. The sun shines down on them from above. Flutter Mane's feathers fall all around the both of them.

digital art doodles. i cant decide on her design or personality but we will see... I can't even decide how much robot girl she is VS ghost girl. Or should she be upfront about always wanting to pounce or more subtle about it???? i dont know...
