Description Pokedex Challenge #52 #53
I'm drawing the pokemons as they appear in the gameboy games: pokemon red and blue version, while I learn how to draw with Paint Tool Sai.

I had to redraw this one from scratch because my computer stopped working. I'm so glad I finished it!
I like the detail of psyduck and seel a lot ♥

Aw man I just noticed that psyducks old sprite looks a lot like Edward Munchs painting the scream, although he looks more confused than shocked tbh kek

Lovely work, the water and yellow reflections really pop nicely here

Oh, more pretty colours - I love this combination of blue and yellow! And I fully agree with you, the details on psyduck and seel are wonderful. And also that beautiful warm light

Golduck looked kind of... weird back then. The head looks just so wide and... weird.

Golduck was more a kappa than a duck back then.... but if you think about it, it's a great concept to "merge" a normal being with a creature like that.

Right, now that you say it... Oh yes, I love that concept! Or generally just "mixing up" different creatures, as you do with gryphons or such.

Yeah! Mixing creatures is fun, especially because most of the mythological creatures are all about that
Sometimes I like to look at bestiaries and try making the creatures from it.

By the way, I loved your new avatar ♥

That sounds really cool and fun, I'm sure you get some great designs that way

Oh, Golduck had tinier eyes and a bigger beak in its early days and had four fingers on its hands instead of three. I love that little interaction between Psyduck and Seel at the background ^^


Pretty good work : ) especially since you had to start all over again, which is obviously very frustrating.

Golduck was a kappa-duck back then, it's tinier eyes are unnerving too haha

Yeah... I didn't like doing it again, but the show must go on!

Oh true, it definitely has those Kappa vibes. I think a pokemon with a design based on a gill-man (like the Creature of the Black Lagoon or the amphibian man in The Shape of Water) would be a cool idea and concept

lol A pokemon like gill-man would be cool. Why there's so much amphibian / reptilian marine creatures? It's rare to find something more normal like a fish or a whale.
