Description This was a drawing I drew while I was on a field trip to the mountains. The apple was a reference before someone ate it. :3 And yes, I know that the eyes look different but it was too late to fix them since it was done by a sharpie. Anyways, enjoy.

Media used: colored pencils and sharpie (for outlines).

Made me think of Death Note, and now I am imagining Pikachu in Ryuk cosplay, awe. x3

The colouring on the apple looks amazing, with the dark shading along the bottom of the apple and the lighting and varied colouring across the top you have given it a good amount of depth and realism combined with the lighting. That looks amazing but I think some darker shading on the apple just below Pikachu's body would help add more depth to the drawing.

I love the dark shadows and black orbs in the background, I think this worked really well to make Pikachu stand out more, because I personally love dark background and borders, I can't help but think some more the black shadowing in the drawing would fill in some of the white space, and might look especially around the paler shadow below the Pikachu and the apple. I how you coloured that part gray and not solid black, as it helps makes the black parts in the drawing stand out even more.

Pikachu itself looks pretty good, I feel something is off with the eyes but you've already mentioned that (and I know the pain when you make a mistake in ink Dx), so besides that I really like the lighting and shading across his body, nicely done. The only other part of the drawing I would criticise is the gray shadow, maybe the darker gray shadows closer to Pikachu's body should be larger to add more depth to the drawing?

Interesting how realistic the apple looks in comparison to Pikachu, reminds me of Pokemon Go...even though I haven't gotten the game yet. Dx

Hope my opinion can be of some help.

Lol thanks! :3

Yes, I should have made Pikachu's shadow a little larger you are right. I was actually thinking about doing so but then I forgot. There are so many things to learn or keep an eye on while improving which is why I am very thankful for your critique. :3

I have Pokemon Go and trust me, it's addicting but it takes up a lot of battery whether you play it or not which sucks. DX Just be really careful at night and don't wander off or else you might find some weird stuff.

Ah, it's always frustrating when you forget to add or change a feature, I've done that too many times. Dx

I don't think I'll be able to get the game for a long time, but I'm at least looking forward to Sun and Moon!

Lol it frustrates me so much. 

Yeah, the game stopped working for me, so sad. Oh well, I thought about getting sun and moon but then again my parents would go crazy over how much it costs. But if I was to get I would get sun.

I should be at university by the time Sun and Moon are out, well I think I can live off of noodles for a week or two for Pokemon. X3

I hope to get Sun. I was thinking of getting Litten but I'm not keen on its final evolution so might go with Owlet.

Nice! Is the university connected to art?
Lol noodles are a classic food when saving money.
Yes, litten or rowlet would be my choice for a starter.(no love for popolio lol)

Unfortunately not, although I look forward to studying Ecology and Wildlife Conservation!

I love noodles and went though a stage where I ate them a lot, luckily I'm not a drinker so I think the only thing I should be wary of, food-money wise is chocolates.  

I'm okay with Poplio's final evolution, but I really want to know Litten's mid evolution. Argh, I am so looking forward to these games!

Nice! I want to be something similar to wildlife conservation but I am not sure yet.

Noodles are delicious for me until I eat them regularly, then the taste goes away. What chocolate is best in your opinion? I love dark chocolate.

You don't know how kittens mid evolution looks like? It's technically a larger kittens with a few changes, nothing special tbh.

P.S. do you want to message some more? (I feel like I might be annoying you rn) XP

Hello! I'm not sure; I haven't recieved any notes for a while...damn those little dragonets - they're supposed to delivery messages immediatly. xD

Could you resend me the note?

mich-spich In reply to SaphireDragon16 [2016-11-06 18:22:20 +0000 UTC]

Yeah sure! I have literally sent like three notes already but they kept deleting themselves, gosh technology... -_-

I know how you feel, last week a few hours of work got destroyed because my laptop glitched, and was stressful because the work was due in soon. I literally wanted to throw my laptop out of the window (I'm living on a third floor so it would have died lol). xD

Did you resend the note? If you did I think a dragon ate it, inbox is still empty.

mich-spich In reply to SaphireDragon16 [2016-11-12 21:42:16 +0000 UTC]

Oh man, you must have been really unlucky for that to happen especially since it was due soon. If I was in your situation I would have probably thrown it out lol.

I can not resend my note for some reason, is it because I do it through my phone? :/ I will seriously loose my marbles I'd I have to write that 3 paragraph responded for the fifth time. XD 😭

Haha, yeah, I hate technology. My luck with it is very limited. Dx
Trust me, when I get a new laptop, this old fossil isn't even worth trading in at a shop I've had it that long...so I look forward to the day that I can take a hammer to it ~ after I throw it out a window of course!

Perhaps copy and paste the message into a new note?
I've noticed when I use the DA app on my phone it can be rather annoying.

This is a really cute drawing!
Can you tell me what kind of coloured pencils you used?
Pikachu himself is very well done! I especially like how you simplified the apple into a comic style. The tetures for the light reflection look really great!
The only minor point of critisism, that I have, is that in certain areas, I think that, eventhough this a comic (and therefore not realistic), some areas would need stronger shadows. Especially the area on the body, where the apple casts a shadow would have to be much darker in my opinion.

Other than that, I think this is a really cool, and especially cute drawing! Great job on this.

Thank you! 
I used crayola pencils for this. XD
Yes, I agree with adding stronger shadows to Pikachu since the apple is close to him.
Thanks for the critique. :3
