Neil,

This time, i started by studying the line, because toxtricity felt like a very complicated pokémon whos shapes i didnt understand that well. So i referenced some official art to draw some canon compliant toxes. You can see I didn't handle toxel very well.

Once I kinda figured out what their deal is in canon, I started studying some crested newts to hone down my shapes of the animal, and started throwing shit at the wall when it comes to their design

Honestly, my main struggle was figuring out what proportions i wanted to do and figuring a way to stylize the face that still made them newt like. I also was reallyyyy struggling with the horns on top of the mohawks

Here is where I really nailed the basics of what I wanted. However if you've noticed, my main issue was that not only was i not figuring out toxel, I did not account for lowkey form either. The latter was easy to fix, I just swapped the body type into something thinner instead of top heavy. Toxel however....

I'll be so fr I hated those first passes so bad, because I didnt do any tries beforehand!!!!!! of course it was gonna come bad!!! So i redid them to the toxels that you saw on the main image, and I enjoyed their designs a lot more + the poses were a lot less clunky.
