Not THAT many, lmfao. Ohh! So it's an old piece but you upload it now, right? Probably why I never saw it. Although, Lugia has 5 fingers. xD That doesn't matter, though, it still looks flawless. Mmm, you should do Ho-Oh next! Ho-Oh is so awesome to draw (I've never drew him but I love his shiny form...). Maybe I will soon, anyway, yeah this is awesome.

I understand. Wow, by memory! Although, Lugia isn't all that complicated but still, awesome. I always have to look at some reference because I forget. xD

Yeah that's true, xD I think also watching movies and other art also teaches you a lot, not that you should always copy them, but like, give you an idea for maybe an angle that you hadn't ever considered before, like your picture of blastoise from the bottom! xD

Lol, what an example Since you took it I will do some explanations: True is that pokemon, and I think all characters, look more powerfull from the bottom. They show pride, bravely, self assurance... Showing badass pokemon in that way is more succesful than showing Skitty like that. I think 8 of my pokemon drawing shows pokemon faces from the bottom. But to not being boring I'm experimenting with other poses, most of my videos don't show it but I have like 4-6 different sketches before the actuall drawing in a video. Sometimes those sketches remains as the lowest layers. If you are bored enough you can search for them in my videos xD
I shall say: imitatting is the best praise. And often other art keep us in "inspired" state, when we trying to draw as good as the artist which is inspiring us. It is like engine. I'm not saying to copy exacly the picture, this isn't the way, but to trying achevie the same efect, similar style as the artist we are looking at. Our goal should be "be as good as him/her". And eventualy we become better than him and we develop our own style.
As for me I treat life as one of the biggest inspiration [link]

Yes, I've seen your sketches, I did notice in your earlier videos you actually showed the preliminary sketches in progress!!! I think you're a really good sketcher cX
Honestly, I only became like, half-mediocre at drawing becuase I wanted to be like some other artists I've seen here, it's envy! Of course I'm no where near their level yet but I want to surpass even THEM some day >:3
Oh the organs I remember reading your meme xD Pokemon cards are amazing inspiration, though being a reference artist, I've actually drawn some stuff from pokemon cards before, but most of them never made it to DA. I even re-drew some of my favorite drawings from people here on DA, of course that will never be posted it's just unfair to the original artist without asking for permission, I drew them because they were the best references around and I just wanted a sketch to give to my nephew xD

Thank you, sketches are the biggest part of my artwork, only a few are getting to the dA. I think like 80-90% of all my drawings (except my comic book) all sketches. Propably making more finished work is too boring for me >.<
In my mind sketch is the most important part of the art, of the doing art. It is when your ideas are crystalizing, when you make composition, add basic colours... If sketch suck, finished drawing will suck either. And it is the most entertaining part of the art. It is where your mind is working the most. I often comparing art process to sudoku. After sketch there is nothing else to do like clean the picture up. Boring. Everything is solved and you acting like when you are doing puzzle (not sure if it is clear so here is a picture: [link] ). Match one element to other, and that it is.
And with your envy you will:]
Speaking of pokemon cards, look at my Feraligatr, then look at this: [link] and then look again the card in my meme. Concidence?
I tried achieve something similar with little addition of my style. And I still think it is the fucking one of my best drawing. True is that Kawayoo is fucking awesome. And I fucking LOVE looking at his card arts. I have box with the Feraligatr and Typhlosion in my desk.
Hey it's good to do that, I think. As long you are not showing it to public and don't get money for that it is ok. I have done few X-men, Spidermen and Predator pictures for some random boy as well.

I'll have to personally disagree with you, I like Ho-oh better because of its Phoenix status, rebirth from your own ashes is just too bad ass.

Aww. It seems like every legendary I like, the other one is much more popular. Well, it at least seems that way.
I like Blastoise over Charizard. They aren't legendaries, but they were still the opposite versions.
Lugia over Ho-oh
Groudon over Kyogre
Dialga over Palkia
Zekrom over Reshiram.
