Description
SPLASH BATTLE
vs FR Brothers
SPARKTACUS and CODE-X vs Shiir and Sceptile

DUO AGAINST DUO
It wasn't often that the two boys went out on dates; aptly named, the more delicate points of relationships often made them unsure as how to behave. However, Zei had worked up somewhat of an idea for a date, and the two headed into the woods alongside Mount Challenger for a peaceful time away from other people (namely Cain) to be by themselves.

Everything went smoothly until two men in some sort of futuristic body suits lept onto the scene, saw Shiir and Zei's Sceptile and immediately challenged the two to a fight, shouting loudly to each other and proclaiming the battle as if it were something so epic it would go down in the history books.

CODE-X knew he had a type advantage against the shiny Mightyena and, spinning in midair to deliver an X-Scissor, signaled to SPARKTACUS to deliver a blow as well. However, the three yellow pokemon didn't seem to realize how much they stood out...or how well Sceptile was camoflauged.

After the battle, the Brothers left the Duo behind. Sulking.

Way to ruin the mood, guys.

if you care at all, here are some progress shots :

DUDE. DUDE.
Your painting style is getting more amazing so fast! I am jealous!
You managed to depict a lot of depth in the picture and on the characters themselves with this shading. Code-X is probably the best example of this, I love how you included the shadows over his head casted by his antennae as well as the ones on the log made by his needlearmthings. The fur on Shiir and Sparktacus is done really well too. DELICIOUS TEXTURES.
And that firefang. <3

IIiiii would like to encourage you to put the same amount of detail into backgrounds in future battles since this one is visibly much more rushed and less polished then the characters and that's a pity, because with this new style you could do some really cool stuff there!

asdlkagsdfha;ldkfjffffff thank you! sdklajf i can't even

i knowwww i am really bad about rushing BGs because i ... generally find them less fun to draw. than, like, anything else. i still spent more time on this one than most though lol. i just kind of need to buckle down and beat myself until i get stuff practiced and all set and stuff orz

th-thank you for your encouragemennnnntthhghdhakf

lol, sorry to ruin Zei & Derrien supposedly romantic dating.
The twin bastards love to do that, pissed off peoples

Btw, This is another cool artwork.

We are impressed with the shadow shading. It really detailed.
You even followed a bit SPARK & CODE-X design. for that

Good luck for both of us

heheh, it was fun thinking up how they'd actually meet.

thank you! i had a lot of fun drawing it.

and of course i had to put a bit of their designs into my interpretations of them; they're way too cool to ignore. the idea of a bee mecha is ... terrifying, but awesome at the same time. and spark is just a badass, so you can't go wrong there!

good luck to you too!

This is AMAZING! That Mightyena's expression is win!
and I love how Jolteon looks like a psycho haha

Truly an incredible job.. And just in ONE DAY!?

hehehe, thank you! the jolteon is blind, so i guess that makes him look more like a psycho. no pupils = crazy!

lol, i actually draw really fast. it's all the random crap in between strokes that makes me take forever to get stuff done. like youtube, formspring, dA, imageboards, my friend linking me to imgur over Steam, talking on steam...

...

i'm really easily distracted lol

Wow that's amazing! I usually get distracted too, which makes my pieces last a couple of... weeks
Though I only really work on them for a couple of hours x3

the internet is a wonderful thing. a wonderful, distracting, horrible thing.

same here. it depends on what i'm doing, but usually something i do doesn't take a huge amount of total time.

thanks! he's like, a mecha of some sort. i didn't draw him exactly the way *Pokemon-FR draws him, but i added some of his traits instead of going for a plain old beedrill.

SkittyTails In reply to static-mcawesome [2011-02-12 00:39:15 +0000 UTC]

I like the added traits.
A lot.
Well done!! :3!
OMG! Ohhh, guess what pokemon I am getting in B&W? Doredia! I just watched a video of it (yes, fully spec) own the WHOLE elite four by itself. And it was NOT level 100. Started at 60-ish. So epic.
YouTube it sometime if you get the chance.

heheh, thank you!

aaah, doreida. i think her english name is like Lilligant or something. she's not too bad! i don't really watch videos of BW, but there's an imageboard i go to where i get all my info.

what types of trainers are the E4 using in this generation, anyway? are most of them weak to grass?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

SkittyTails In reply to static-mcawesome [2011-02-12 02:31:17 +0000 UTC]

The E4, well.
One is psychic, one is ghost, one is dark, and one is fighting. And the champion has three bugs, but over all his team is eclectic.

But, no, it isn't week to grass, the person in the video just spec'd it's 'Lilligant' very well.

but Lilligant? Doredia is so much of a better name. Naaaah.

Hot damn, this is so great! The detail you put in this...!

Ah static I luurrvvee it. You're a shoe in to win.

So, SAI eh? I have heard things about it over the last year... Do you know how it fares to photoshop?

static-mcawesome In reply to AleksanderZee [2011-02-10 15:36:38 +0000 UTC]

thank youuuuu!

yessss, sai. i do have photoshop -- elements 2.0 and 7.0 -- and as far as drawing goes SAI is superior. it IS what it was designed for, after all. the tools are much more ... innovative? i guess? and it just works better for drawing as far as i'm concerned. or maybe elements just sucks, which i have also heard. if you're interested, the official site for SAI offers a 30 day trial!

That... is just flippen epic.

What's weird is I used Sparktacus in my 2x2 with them, too. I love the motion in the front, and Spark's blindness is actually visible, due to the colors you used. *shotded*

The only thing is that Shiir's neck seems a bit long... but it might just be me. Good luck!

static-mcawesome In reply to LupusSilvae [2011-02-10 15:34:43 +0000 UTC]

thank you!

what's cool is that neither of us used any of the same pokemon in our halves, lol.

the more i look at it, i don't think his neck is too long, but i drew his foremost shoulder too far down, so it makes it look like his neck kind of extends past that point. or something. i don't know if that makes any sense. orz

thank you very much!

LupusSilvae In reply to static-mcawesome [2011-02-10 18:06:21 +0000 UTC]

Maybe it is his shoulder... Dah, well. Something's a bit wonky, I just can't pinpoint it. Because I fail like that.

But you're very welcome, nonetheless.
