Description Comission for
Her character Olive Parker, plus her Feraligatr and Honchkrow at the background. Travelling on a long long roa-... No wait, what? That's a field! Guess travelling by road would be too boring for the adventurous soul anyways, huh? Ha!

OH YEAH, download looks better.

Woo! This was like SO refreshing to do at the middle of all the stuff I should have been doing. Gave me the perfect excuse to think about something else for a moment. Phew!

Dundunn... Ok, random rant incoming. Escape while you still can.
I love this character. It was a joy to draw her. It's really great to see oldschool-punkish characters for a change! I don't mean to bark but modern day punks are just... Too much. They all seem to be in a great competition called "Who wears the most accessories and haz the most dumpo-ass-crazy-coloured-hair-with-trim" competition. Plus, the modern look seem to attract a great deal of posers, who doesn't even know the culture. I mean look at the original punk style. All they had was bald head, simple shirt and rugged jeans. Gee, the time has changed. Olive is awesome. She isn't over-doing it, and I just love it. Plus she is Grunge. GRUNGE IS ALWAYS WIN.
...Plus I like redheads.

Humm, ok. Now then. I'm not sure did I get all the details right, probably didn't but bleh! If even half of them are right, I'm happy!
Err, not sure if she had nails, but since nails are awesome, IT WAS DECIDED.

This was actually very experimental work. Since I don't actually like the general way I colour stuff, I tried something different. Plus I did it with this new Sai painter I just bumped into some time ago. Still with the trial ver! But so far I'm liking it, and seems to be a lot better for colouring than OC! Happy happy!

---
And NO! Before you ask, I don't do free commissions anymore. This was a special case, since I pretty much owed her one anyways, haha!

I love how simple and real she looks; combined with the dusty summer afternoon haze, the whole thing's so believable that the Pokemon look almost out of place.

I like that she looks so mature. and that the picture isn't a typical pokemon "we are a happy family"picture. it is more that the pokemon are part of the background but it is still a pokemon picture. I like that. That it is so different from the most pokemon related pictures.

Fffffffffff I tried to comment when I fav'd this earlier but I guess my phone ate it. Unless it DID go through and I just can't see it. If that's the case then fml.

BUT ANYWAY I just wanted to say that this was beautiful, and that I love the soft coloring. Soooo awesome! You have a lovely style

Oh wow that was fast!

...AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!
She...is...so PERFECT!!

And you did the shirt! Most artists do my alt. outfit cuz the shirt is "too complicated"
but you're a major bad ass and did such a great job!

This will be printed on high quality paper and hung on my wall.
Thank you so much!

-----------------------

I'm so flattered that you think so highly of my character!
I totally agree with you about the current punk scene
punk is supposed to be an attitude that fills in the clothes
not just a cover up, :high five:

Hahaha, you know, I was about to draw the alt. outfit at first too (EXACTLY because the shirt was so darn compleeeeeeex). But then I thought, this shirt is just TOO COOL not to be drawn.

Wooo, you're welcome o/ :hi'fives back:
And you are a total weirdo if you hang this work on your wall, you... you.. Weirdo!!!1
