Description Here we go, a commission for ~chelseachil She requested a picture of her Pikachu character in an open field. I hope I got it right I was rather unsure how to handle this at first...

So that's basically about it ^^ The backgrounds is entirely painted in SAI, so I hope it looks good enough. I'm still experimenting with these kind of things. But I'm still proud of the outcome I hope you will as well

As usual, comments and critiques are welcome ^^

Okay I don't have a PM but I hope this "not as official" critique helps!

I'd like to start off with the line art, which looks practically professional! Ziggy is quite the "unique" Pikachu. Which of course calls for a unique artist! The shading in his fur is also very well done.

The effect you used for the trees reflecting in the water is brilliant, however I had a hard time tracing the actual water.

And is that a train blowing off s a smoke pillar in the background? Or a volcano?..... Or a Camerupt? XD

Aww, well any kind of critique is greatly appreciated

Thanks a lot for the compliments, it's really encouraging ^^ I'm really glad you like it
I can get why the water could be confusing to identify at first, but I did my best to make it the best as possible. Although I must admit that I used a photoshop effect to do it that way But the rest is completely hand digital-paintead c:

And I'll leave the smoking thing in the background to your immagination.It was made kinda small and indistinguishable for a reason There's a limit for details when working on something that far away in the scenery

Oh, well I did use a different color, but yet again, never ask me about colors... I always mess them up ><
What's wrong with your eyes ?

Waffles-n-Ramen In reply to Dragon-Minded [2012-02-20 19:38:49 +0000 UTC]

It's not messed up, I just had a hard time distinguishing it. And my eyes are just not very good.

Don't be sorry for that There's nothing to be sorry about. I don't go on saying "sorry for my stupid eyes"

Les reflets sont jolis et le petit Pikachu est juste trop kawai ^^

Franchement, j'aime beaucoup ce dessin
