Having dumped most of my older artwork into some forgotten void (aka Texas), I've recently decided to take another stab at arting. Armads' sketchbook makes its vengeful return, now with 30% less recycled material!

Most of my pokemon sketches come from an old fanfic I used to do. Stuff from the past couple days:
Luca - One of the two main characters. (and yes, I am that creative with names lol)
Glass - One of my favorite characters. Technically a villain in the story.
Din - Another protagonist, but he doesn't have much of a backstory.

And my recent non-pokemon thing, the Hollow Cat from an unrelated story. May be a bit disturbing to cat lovers. XD

Critiques are welcome, requests semi-welcome. I'll get to them when I have time. lol

I love Lucario the most. More shadings would make your pictures more realistic.

I would totally do that, but I'm just awful at shading. I've ruined a number of my drawings by trying to shade them. XD;

For reference, here's an Absol I drew a while back, with and without shading. With the exception of the darkened skin, I don't like the shaded version much. It looks a lot more cluttered and all the shadows just seem wrong... and I can never figure out what looks "right." Sad. =(

They're nice.

You could try smudging when you shade instead of just lines, good drawings though.

I like the Lucario and Mightyena the best. It would be better if you try to shade. Or you can color unless you prefer to stick with pencils for your drawings.

New drawing finally! Spring break's over so I have to get back into school work, but in between that and creative droughts I'll hopefully still have some new sketches every couple days. lol

Anyways, the newest thing and what's actually my first drawing of a fifth-gen dude. Here's Bosco, my Serperior from White. I went and took another crack at hatch shading while I was at it too. While I'm pretty happy with this turnout, I blame Time for making it take nearly two hours to do. XD

Back and with something a bit different today. Haxorus being my favorite Gen-V pokemon, I was pretty miffed at failing to draw one well after a couple of attempts (lol =|). Sooo I instaed went with a more anthropomorphic design. Presenting Liyr, my trusty Haxorus(ish)!

After shading, your arts improved a lot and are now more appealing.

Lucario and Floatzel are really well-done, but Serperior is hands-down the best one so far. Shading your drawings made them look better, so you should always stick to that from now onwards.

Thanks for the input, Time and Shadow. I got a bit on the lazy side when I draw Liyr (hence why she isn't shaded lol), but I plan on doing more shaded stuff whenever I can find the time. XD;
