Artist's Comments

Doing portraits of my Pearl team, like every other person out there. Again, a lot of firsts in this picture. Never drawn a turtle, nor mountains, nor a meadow, nor a tree. It painfully shows. Alas, not very happy with how it came out. The sketch looked so promising, I'm afraid my lacking coloring skills ruined the concept. Oh and yes, my Torterra is quite.. emotional.

This part of a series, sort of. Coming up are Salamence, Froslass, Houndoom and Suicune. Maybe, eventually.

Woww, I'm really suprised this picture dosen't have any comments yet; it's an amazing picture.

I absolutely lovee your coloring style and how you drew the eye all of the other details you put into this.
Great work. :3

I'm not very Pokemon savvy or anything, so I'm not completely familiar with any of these 'newer' ones, but I do know that you did this awesomely well.

I like the composition, especially, because it makes you look & think twice before realising that--HEY. That tree is growing on his shell & not part of the actual landscape! :wow: I like how you managed to trick your eyes like that. :D

And I think you lie about how you fail at landscapes. :| It does not ';painfully show' at all! I like the subtly of the rays of sunlight peeking through the tree on his back, as well as the tears swelling up in his eyes, not to mention the saliva on his tongue too. ;P

Don't be so hard on yourself. You did excellently with this! And it's even one of the better Pokemon fan-arts that I've seen that end up with 100+ favs. This deserves just as much attention too, & I'm quite surprised that it lacks a spotlight in Pokemon fan-art popularity.

Ah, thanks, that's great to hear :).

It's a bit too obvious that I take great delight into coloring/drawing tongues perhaps, especially if I'd show you my recent work. :D

Thank you so much for your comment, and, if it deserves more attention I'm sure it will get it, eventually :thanks:.
