Description My entry for Shipping contest held by group.

Excuse me while I go in a search for something really sharp so I can kill myself!!

...
...
...

Mum stopped me. I'll probably be very grateful to her-someday. -.-

*Goddess-Chachi 's characters from her nuzlocke comic: protagonist Crystal and her friend Ethan-this was supposed to be Friendzoneshipping. The theme for contest was Shippings from this nuzlocke and all ideas which came to my mind (and there were a lot of them I had kind of hard time to coming up with "the right one") included this two so...

What is showed on this picture? Well, Crystal had a birthday and Ethan wanted to surprise her so he invited her on a picnic and he gifted Crystal with the chikorita plushie which he made by himself. Hey, he's always in that New Bark town and he needs something to keep him busy so I thought: "Why couldn't he know how to saw?" Actually, I drew this pokemon plushie because I'm somehow hoping that I'll get into one of places where plushie is given ^^ Also, that "Special CSSN" posters (featuring never-before-seen, future characters/designs!) with Chachi's autograph sounds nice too . I guess this isn't for the first place, so I have my fingers crossed that this will be good enough for one of three Honorable Mentions that will be proclared.

This took me hours and hours of work. I wanted to go slowly with this, I worked on this maybe one-one and a half hour every day because more of that would result in destroying everything. I wanted to use this for background practice. God knows that now a huge period of time needs to pass before I decide to draw backgrounds again. I'll draw backgrounds again when I get tablet. Drawing with the mouse is too slow and my nerves are too thin for that.
And I'm not fully satisfied with how this turned out. Something is not right, but I can't figure out what @.@ Despite this I wanted to try my chances in this contest. In this few days that are left to the deadline I wouldn't be able to draw something like this again not even if someone payed me.
Oh, that behind them are supposed to be rocks. Maybe some of you with bigger imagination were able to comprehend that


I'll probably find some mistakes as time goes by so this piece of ... huh, how to call this , will probably be edited few times before actual deadline.


P.S. Good news for you, my nuzlocke readers who (from some totally unclear reason to me) wanted to see this picture. Next update will be in a few days. After I saw libretto for this part I realized that it would be way too long beyond DA allowed submissions sizes so I've cut part 11 to three sub parts. ^^ And I've acquired Manga studio so from now one this part which is edited on computer should look nicer (at least it does in my head )

P.P.S. THAT IS NOT A DEAD CHIKORITA: IT'S A PLUSHIE!

EDIT: I won second place with this ^^

Eeeee!
When I looked at this picture it totally didn't come to my mind that you still have to draw with a mouse. Here, have some pain killers for your hand and eyes.

I hope you win something because this is a really cute idea and it turned out great!

Leptocyon In reply to Krisantyne [2012-06-24 21:29:15 +0000 UTC]

Stupid mouse is stupid! I'm drawing with it and imaging how awesome pressure sensitivity will be

huh, I must say, I'm glad to hear that you like it and I hope to win something too

What's with all of you? Nothing is over yet. Who knows how Chachi will judge entries.

It's on a list of official shippings, yes.

Leptocyon In reply to samagirl [2012-06-24 20:39:37 +0000 UTC]

Please, this is far from masterpiece I look at it more like a record of Leptocyon's progress. One day I'll (hopefully) laugh at this.

Aw man, this looks AWESOME. My chances of winning just took a dive. XD Beautiful picture!

(Although, the sewn X eyes on the plushie make it look a little like a dead Chikorita. "XD Maybe you could add a little circle around the X to be a button eye.)

Leptocyon In reply to DragonwolfRooke [2012-06-24 20:20:32 +0000 UTC]

NOOUU. Ethan is still a beginner and he doesn't know that he can buy those plastic eye thingies. Poor him.
But, that idea to turn it into button...hmmm. I'll consider it. Thanks for the tip!

Heh, I feel flattered that you like it
