Uncreative Insanity

Tanith Blackthorn!! Originally designed by @prismportrait but given to me to design. Here she is in Ultra Moon, several years after the fic Prism and I are writing. She's the Indigo Champion, taking over after beating her big brother. Her two signature Pokemon are her shiny Dragonite (mega stone given to her by Lance) and her shiny Ampharos (mega stone given to her by her nibling, Sky).

This is what happens when you let @prismportrait and I listen to a podcast while drawing. I hope you all enjoy.

Attacked @prismportrait on @artfight! Lance is just showing his replacement around Interpol, don't mind him. It's Tradition(tm) at this point to do it this way.

I swear I'm drawing new art, but here is some old art in the meantime. Aurora, my vaporeon gijinka! A really old sketch of her wearing armor. This was sketched before I changed her main weapon to be a fan. But I think it is easy to see what other Pokemon's inspiration is in her armor.

I'll be out of town this weekend so here's a sketch for this week!

I'm going to try to post weekly again now that I am settled. This morning, @prismportrait and I went to the beach for the sunrise. I want to get weekly photos of the ocean to reference now and paint them.

I don't remember if I posted this before or not, so here's something I made during artfight two years ago. @prismportrait 's Nataku and my Aurora, Aurora struggling with the corruption of her mana. Looking at this now, I want to redo this with details changed. Like Nataku's cape having more motion, more wear on their armor, more details in that big magic circle in the background.

Ultra Moon Valerie in a kimono! Not Valerie's usual style.

Ultra Moon verse Sky! (Named Cameron at birth.) Although he was uprooted and ends up growing up in Blackthorn instead of Fall City, the change ends up being good for them! They eventually unseat Diantha from her position as champion! The only thing they dislike about being the champion of Kalos is the time difference when calling their little brother.

Moon verse Cameron! Valerie's oldest son who dreamed of fame either through music or through dragon-taming. He even is mentored by Lance at one point! But all of that is thrown aside when his world crashes to a halt with terrible news. Cameron manages to barely pull himself from his isolation to a new calling. He still hasn't forgotten what he wanted to do in the past.

The same fate as Moon befell her. But it's okay, she got better. May have lost a few things in the process, some things got changed, but she's better!! Besides, for some strange reason, she can handle the artifact that cursed everyone just fine.

Moon verse Valerie haunts the timeline, her death ultimately unanswered. Who would seek harm against a helpful Pokemon Ranger?

Go from surviving to thriving, hiding to shining.

Elite Four Valerie accepts your challenge!

First rough design of Ultra Moon version of Valerie! What you don't see under her chin is her keystone. Parts of her scar does show, but she likes the look enough to endure it. Or maybe put concealer on if it's a bad day.
