"Oh, I'm not gonna have a repeat of February's piece, I'm gonna start this one wayyyyyy before my birthday, so I can slowly work on it with plenty of time and care!" -Me, starting a piece I ended up hating and scrapping, before starting this one. I guess I never learn...

Still! I had a ton of fun with this one! It's my most complex and ambitious piece yet and, somehow, I kinda just managed to.... flow state my way through this. Coloring went smoothly, lineart did too- even the background, after some experimenting, sweating and only a tiny urge to cry, wasn't that bad once I settled on a look. Sketching took... 10 days! And the lineart, coloring, rendering and background took... four. I considered doing colored lineart, like the last piece- wow, my last real piece was 4 months ago- but... look at all these colors and subjects LOL, maybe if I'm bored I'll take a swing at coloring these lines later.

Yikes!

I'm just glad I finally made a piece that wasn't just humans- drawing Pokemon is really fun!

I will now return to my slumber. For another 4 months...?
