Description Messing about with Livebrush again, but I didn't scrap it this time. Makes a decent wallpaper.

Don't ask me why I drew Beedrill, I just kind of...did. I drew loads of random squiggles that, with imagination, looked kinda like a condensed Beedrill so I redrew it AS a chibi-ish Beedrill. All splatty like.

All the brushes and effects are from Livebrush, but I refined it using GIMP and added stuff like the text.

I also tried to recreate the brushes using GIMP; I'm getting there, I'm just learning how saving brushes works.

Lol! I has- er, had - 99 deviations to look at, and (because who can blame me) I have a brief look at the thumbnails and 'X' away - but I saw this, under "poke-fanclub", and lo-and-behold, I didn't x it, because I liked the look of it, and whaddya know, here I am. Funny how small the world is.

But anywho, I like it lots! Simplistic, and the composition is nice. (Could do with some depth, perhaps?) It suits yours style - the only thing I don't like, is how the lines come together rather shoddily - but that's obviously a fault with the program and brushes, and not your problem at all. And the varying line thickness is good - but equally, that might just be the brush. So, it's good, very good.
Although, my favourite is still your 'nauts stuff - it matches your style so amazingly perfectly! And looks proffesional to boot, as well as impressive!

Lol 99. I x thumbnails whether I have 99 or 9 >_< Meh, it's not bad, similarly took me about 10 minuites to make like the Shaymin. I just like it more. And actually, the shoddy lines were my problem, I was just being...impressionistic? Well, I just wasn't trying to make a solid outline, but it looks a bit pants. And yeah, I tried to alter the line thickness using pressure; someplaces it worked, others...not so well :/

And you really like my 'nauts artwork? Realleh? Because, well, I don't feel the artwork has any personal charm. Most of it is based purely on the Scribblenauts artstyle. The only thing I can lend to it are facial expressions and composition -_- I actually fear by the end of it, I won't be able to draw anything BUT 'nauts-style stuff, replacing my existing style. Although I do feel the style itself is quite charming, it just, again, doesn't feel too personal.

Well, I can see it takes a lot from the Scribblenauts - but it's still undoubtedly yours. And the little extras - like the paper, 2D border around each part - really make it shine. Granted, I suppose that kind of thing doesn't come naturally. But I guess, when it comes to something like flattening and layering different parts, that's a technique more than a style, so I guess it wouldn't be personal.

And don't forget to be consistent! Like... in that big title page you did, all the pokemon were stylised somewhat - lapras and such. Don't forget to do that to some extent to every other pokemon, otherwise by the time you get to the end of it you'll be off on a tangent.

Sure, it's undoubtebly mine, heh, I mean, Scribblenauts was made up of really crude sprites after all; hardly art. And the papery stuff is a nice touch...but obviously inspired by the boxart and taken up a notch. Obviously I can be more personal when designing the PokΓ©nauts because, as you said, I should keep them stylised. I couldn't really do it that well with any of the PokΓ©mon so far; Pidgey was difficult to draw differently. But Scribblenauts has every creature constructed from pins and interlocking pivotal parts like machines; it's fun to draw things like that such as the Lapras. Should be interesting.

Heheh, thank you very much ^^ it's a shame the program I made it with isn't that...advanced. It has really cool brushes like that, but it's hard to use, and not widely available. That's why I'm trying to make the brushes myself so anyone can use them not going well though :/

Thanks for making the world a little brighter! And for showing me there are still nice not-selfish people in this world!

I'm sure there are loads of generous people still left in the world; they're just hiding from all the selfish people who want to take advantage of their generosity!

I'm determined to make these brushes work! They're soooo good!
