;D Thanks for letting me use this Fawkes, even though I made a pre evo and not an evo like you originally wanted.
Another note to Revenir - NO DODGE N BURN WATSOEVA!

Thank you, I aimed to make it look like a cute version of its evolution.

Checked out your link to the original and that looked good.
Looked at your picture and thought of something that had a techno Babylonian/Assyrian vibe.
Imagine a picture of a futuristic version of the Hanging Gardens of Babylon with sphinx like guardians like your creature. Could have a bunch of holograms or etchings of the other version of the creature in the scene. Could almost see it in my head.
I was thinking Babylonian/Assyrian because they were into sphinxes, could also go Egyptian but then the scene would be different.
One reference that would help out a lot is the Hanging gardens level from the PC game Titan quest. The temple of Marduk level would also be a good place to look at too.
Anyway its an idea. I could do it but I am full up with projects now.

*_* Wow, that's the perfect environment for this! That's really cool, thank you for your contribution, I could totally see this guarding an ancient yet futuristic place.

Are you going to do the scene?

Hmm, doing a scene like that requires a lot of effort and I also don't think I have adequate skill to pull it off

Well good news!
You are in luck guvnor!
I spent a bit of time and found a bunch of reference pictures on
Babylon. At least that is covered.
Might want to check these out:
Assyria
Hanging Gardens(if you are doing an outdoor scene)
Temple of Marduk (interior scene)
Titan quest (Hanging Gardens/Temple of Marduk).
Hologram projector.
Yeah, it would be a stretch but you will bump up your skills even if it fails out.

D8 Wow, those are some really nice pictures. Now I'm pumped to do something like this, thank you for your help! I've got holidays coming up in a week so maybe then I can start this project!
Think I need to come up with more Fakemon though, I don't want to limit to just one type of Pokemon :7 Any ideas? Maybe egyptian based ones.

Well for the Babylonian scene you can have the sculpted guardian and the original form maybe as a hologram embedded into a wall.
I would suggest for this picture, you do the background first so you can give it some detail and then do your chars next. The background and holograms will be important in setting up that Techno Babylon feel.
Can do Fakemon with an Egyptian theme, just look at some Egyptian references.
Egyptian is kinda common, how about Mayan/Incan Fakemon types?
Good luck with the project.

Just a random comment - the name makes sense for two origins, both of which relate to the Babylonian thing. See, when I saw the name I thought it came from "Enkidu" (Gilgamesh's sidekick, more or less).
I suppose as a preevo of something based off of a Lamassu the Shedu origin makes more sense, though.

HELL YEAH!!!
I was actually hoping for a Rock/Fire EVO, and probably a Bucentaur (liek a centaur but with cow instead of horse), but this works too. Though I would have preferred if it had less flamboyant color, I used three different shades of brown on the original :0
But anyway, HELL YEAH!!!

Your Pokemon was too detailed for me to make an evolution of, besides, I don't want to mess with mytholigcal creatures |X
And I thought you used just brown, red and grey XP I tried.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Well this little guy COULD be just a painted statue. I won't complain, looks awesome no matter how you did the color job.
And don't you love the phrase "Hell Yeah"?

And true, your Collamassu was like a sculpture of rock right? I was thinking about giving this guy a story about being molded by clay

Woooow this is awesome! Wish it were a real pokemon *would absolutely have it in her party* Good job

*w* Really? Do you think making the face and fore limbs white was a good move? I were gonna keep them tan brown like the rest but thought it make it like Idunnolol.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yup. And definitely a good move, it'd look too...plain? if it were all the same colour.

Maybe look too normal considering it's supposed to have a mythological thingo going on.
