Description
I was bored of other drawings I was working on, so I wanted to do a quick oekaki before going to bed.. looked through my Sugimori folder for a Pokemon I hadn't drawn before and chose Murkrow. I love Murkrow.. they're kinda cute in a funny way. This is one of my first tries at a dark-looking picture that I'm actually happy with, hurray! Amazingly it only took me 59 minutes. I don't know how that happened. I think I'm getting better with colours. XDI also don't know why I used ShiPainter, since it doesn't do anything special with solids. The layers helped though, I guess.
Used: Optical mouse, ShiPainter.
Murkrow (c) The Pokemon Company

Ooooh, very cool! Murkrow flying through the dark night sky. Very, very nice. The wings are very cool and nicely done too. The background is just dark enough, too. Really gives the feel that Murkrow is a dark Pokemon... very awesome!

Oh, nice. (I think I said this too many times now. *looks for thesaurus* Superb! O_O//)
It looks like a floating shadow with red eyes. *shivers*
I love the solid coloring for such a simple picture. ^ ^

I don't know Jean...but Murkrow seems really...flat. o_O The part where it's all black and everything. 
I know I'm not the one to give you advice (lol you're the better artist XD) but when I color I tend to avoid using blacks, but a shade that is nearly close to black--that way you can shade. ^^ I don't know the tools in oekaki very well, but that's what I do when I use PS.
Keep up the good work! ^_^

Oh, I know, I did it solid black on purpose.. I've seen people do that before, so I just wanted to give it a shot. At least it doesn't look as bad as that Deoxys one I did.. XD I got the sillhouette ALL wrong.

Whenever I see this drawing, I am reminded of my favorite poem "The Raven" by Edgar Allen Poe. Well done.

Lovely Murkrow!

Neat. Murkrow is one of my favs.
I do like the solid black effect. It startled me at first, but it's really neat. XD Murkrow seems to blend into the shadows.
Great job, sweetheart!

Well, when I see a crow at night I sure as hell can't see anything but black on it's feathers. XD And yeah, I really like Murkrow too e_e

👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Well yeah, yes, and no. Umbreon, Sneasel, Tyranitar, and Houndour > Houndoom.. you could kind of count Girafarig considering it SHOULD be Psychic/Dark because of it's ass, but it's not XD

Ooooh Murkrow one of my favorite PKMN, I had all Dark PKMN..XD (yes yes I know it was a VERY bad idea to have all the same type) but I could'nt help me self :3. I think my Murkrow was called "Dread".
They should have it evolve into a Raven or something XDD.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Actually sometimes having all or most of one type isn't that bad.. someone killed me in a double battle using just two electrics, (they're newer ones) Plusle and Minun. They power eachother up and are really scary. e_e

I wouldn't have used plain solid black for his body, and I would have added some minimal lightning on the feathers (as the reflections of the stars), but I won't complain since it's a well done pic of one of my favourites X3
(though I never got the chance to seriously raise one..)

Well for some reason I wanted to use plain solid black.. I'm not really sure why. o_o I guess I was thinking about when I'd seen crows flying at night, None of the black really had any highlights unless there were lamps around. And thanks XD
I want to use one seriously soon. X3 considering I'll use more things now than I would've back then

Murkrow!

I've never used a Murkrow in battle before, so I don't know if it's any good or not. This is a cool picture, though. It looks as if it could just come alive and start attacking.

It's pretty good, though not a typical "strong" one.. though I don't give a crap about that XD
And thanks a lot!

wow murkrow..havent seen this pokemon in a LOOONG time. like since the gold and silver versions.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It's in FireRed actually.. in a cave on one of the added Sevii Islands. ^^
But anyway, yeah, Gold and Silver are my favourite of the series XD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
odd i thought all the old pokemon where in the friered and leafgreen ones..well i havent even played it yet so thats what i know XD
Gold and silver are my favourites besides sapphire :3
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh, they are. FireRed and LeafGreen are remakes of Red and Blue[/Green]. But they added the Sevii Islands that are accesable a bit before and some more after the Elite Four.. and you can catch a few of the GS Pokemon on them, and there's some new trainers to fight.

ohh i have to get it then XD sounds very fun
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It is pretty cool.. especially because I can't play Red anymore, LOL. The sprites look too horrible! XD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
yeah tell me aout it..i found my yellow version the other day, Pika sounded good at the time but after years of playing the newer ones it just sounds like its drowning.XD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
LOL, yeah. I can still play GS, because the sprites are still good, but man, most of RBY's are soo hideous looking.. XD
