Charizard


I wouldn't say it's 100% complete, but I think I'm gonna stop touching it and move on. It was an idea I wanted to portray because I've seen a lot of realistic Pokemon out there, and some of the hyper-realistic ones freak me out and in my opinion strayed too far away from the original concepts of these Pokeymans. Let's just say some of the ones I've seen are what Super Mario Bros. the movie is to the Mario franchise.

Anyway, I wanted to take my own spin ever since I was really inspired by Monster Hunter to do some MH Pokemon hybrids for a while now so I finally did it.

Characters

Sorry for the old work..but I felt like I should post it here. This is one of my first character designs I did for class. The theme was a feudal Japanese style explorer-type "Goonies" rendition of four characters. I wanted it to fit the feudal period of the 1600s, so Hildebrandt is a corrupt former Dutch trader. He's supposed to be 6 feet tall so his hakama is really short.

paintovers

I did some Pokemon-style paint overs of reaction images from 4chan. Basically took art and screenshots and painted Pokemon versions. Why? Why not??

"peace."

It's hard to draw when I'm stressed over work. I'm gonna try and make it a habit to make drawing more therapeutic!!

this is the type of notes i leave my boss for a day off

when i walk into the office in the sushi restaurant, the wall adjacent to the desk is littered with little pieces of paper of my coworkers' handwriting with dates on them for their day-off requests.

i don't really request off at all, so when i eventually did, i told myself to make mine the largest and most obnoxious note out of all of them just for the hell of it.

the inside joke is that my boss knows i'm a big fan of Hirohiko Araki's works.

A Lookback #02

this was my second biggest project. i actually felt i had more fun doing this, because it was a fun style to experiment with since it was animation-styled and the theme were two of my favorite interests: hip hop and japanese folklore.





















the lineup consists of in order:
Kaito "Tak" Takeuchi, Genkimaru, KC, JoJo, The CEO, The CEO's True Form, The Foreman.
